Town Of Homer Housing Authority

Town of Homer Housing Authority, a U.S. government entity and public housing authority based in Homer, Louisiana, operates as the recipient of federal grant funding from the Department of Housing and Urban Development to administer public housing operations and capital improvements for low-income residents, with all 44 recent awards routed through HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office.

Homer Housing Authority receives formula grants under two primary HUD programs: the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850) and the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872). The Operating Fund grants support day-to-day operational expenses including property management, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, debt service, and administrative program implementation. Capital Fund grants fund public housing modernization, development of additional housing units, infrastructure upgrades, management improvements, and financing activities including debt service payments, all subject to HUD-approved five-year action plans and compliance with 24 CFR Part 905 and the Uniform Administrative Requirements.

Recent awards include a $299,525 Capital Fund award dated April 1, 2026 (completion March 31, 2030), a $175,565 Operating Fund award dated January 1, 2026 (completion December 31, 2032), a Capital Fund award dated May 13, 2025 (completion May 12, 2029), and an Operating Fund award dated January 1, 2025 (completion December 31, 2031). Prior awards from 2024, 2023, and 2022 span both programs with varying completion dates through 2030.

Homer Housing Authority is 100% dependent on HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office, with all 44 awards in the source data stemming from that single funding agency. The combined dollar value across all awards reaches approximately $10 million. Activity is modest and irregular—the authority received four awards in 2024, then two in each of 2025 and 2026—with only two awards facing ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months. As a housing authority, Homer operates as a formula-grant recipient rather than a federal contractor and holds no federal contract vehicles, contracts, or subcontract engagements in the source data. The entity's federal footprint is narrow and specialized: formula-based housing operations and capital funding for a small Louisiana jurisdiction serving low-income residents.
