South Amboy Housing Authority

South Amboy Housing Authority, a U.S. local government entity and public housing authority headquartered in South Amboy, New Jersey, acts as a federal grant recipient administering public housing capital and operating funds from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office. The Authority does not serve as a federal contractor or subcontractor; its federal footprint consists entirely of HUD formula grants supporting public housing operations and modernization activities within its jurisdiction.

The Authority receives recurring formula grants under two primary HUD programs. The Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) provides funds for capital improvements, modernization, development, and infrastructure work on public housing units, including construction and rehabilitation, energy efficiency upgrades, emergency repairs, and related management activities under an HUD-approved five-year action plan. The Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850) provides operating subsidies for day-to-day operational and maintenance expenses, property management, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security initiatives, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, debt service, and administrative program implementation. Recent awards include a $400,405 Capital Fund grant dated April 1, 2026, running through March 31, 2030; a $316,254 Operating Fund grant dated January 1, 2026, running through December 31, 2032; and a Capital Fund award dated May 13, 2025, running through May 12, 2029. The Authority receives capital and operating fund awards on a recurring annual or semi-annual cycle; the source data spans from 2022 through 2026, with two awards per year typical.

Customer concentration is absolute — 100% of the Authority's 33 recorded federal awards come from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office, the sole federal customer. Combined dollars obligated across all awards total $12.1 million. The Authority operates as a prime recipient on all grants, with no sub-award activity. Four awards carry ultimate completion dates in the next twenty-four months, representing routine recompete cycles aligned with HUD's annual and multi-year formula grant schedules. The Authority's federal mission is limited to administering federally funded public housing operations and capital improvements serving lower-income residents in South Amboy, New Jersey; it does not develop or deliver services to federal agencies beyond HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office.
