Housing Authority Of City Of Whitney

Housing Authority Of City Of Whitney, doing business as Whitney Housing Authority, is a non-profit public housing agency based in Whitney, Texas, that receives federal formula grants as a recipient from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office. The organization operates exclusively within HUD's Public Housing programs and does not hold federal contracts, subcontracts, or seats on federal contracting vehicles.

Whitney Housing Authority's federal footprint consists entirely of formula-grant recipient work under two HUD programs: the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA not specified in award data) and the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872). Operating Fund grants provide subsidies for day-to-day operational and maintenance expenses, management and administrative costs, energy, resident supportive services, insurance, and debt service. Capital Fund grants support modernization, infrastructure improvements, emergency repairs, energy efficiency upgrades, code compliance work, and development activities that add to or reconfigure the housing authority's unit inventory. Whitney Housing Authority has received ten formula-grant awards over the past several years, all from HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office, with combined dollars obligated across the full award history of $2.9 million. Recent awards include a $130,418 Capital Fund formula grant (award date April 1, 2026, running through March 31, 2030), an Operating Fund formula grant (January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2032), and a Capital Fund award (May 13, 2025 through May 12, 2029). All awards are formula-allocated; HUD calculates each public housing agency's annual entitlement based on inventory characteristics including unit counts, building age, and construction costs rather than through competitive application.

Activity has remained flat at two awards per year for the past five years (2022–2026). Two awards carry ultimate completion dates within the next twenty-four months and therefore face recompete exposure in that window. Whitney Housing Authority operates as a prime recipient only — it holds no sub-award relationships and does not subcontract federal work. Customer concentration is absolute: all forty awards in the source data trace to a single federal agency, HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office. The organization's federal role is administrative stewardship of public housing units and compliance with 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements and HUD information-management obligations under the Housing Act of 1937.
