US Housing Urban Development

Merryville Housing Authority, a tax-exempt nonprofit organization doing business under the US Housing Urban Development Division, operates as a federal grant recipient (100% of its award footprint) focused on public housing capital improvements and operational funding through HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office. The organization is not a federal contractor and holds no federal contract awards or contract vehicles; its federal engagement is exclusively through formula grant programs administered by HUD.

Merryville Housing Authority's federal footprint centers on two formula grant programs under CFDA 14.872 (Public Housing Capital Fund) and an unlabeled Public Housing Operating Fund program. The organization has received recurring annual or multi-year formula grants since at least 2022. Representative recent grants include a $291,720 Public Housing Capital Fund award effective April 1, 2026, through March 31, 2030, which funds public housing modernization, infrastructure improvements, development of additional housing units, energy efficiency enhancements, and emergency repairs in compliance with 24 CFR Part 905. The organization also holds a Public Housing Operating Fund grant (January 1, 2026, through December 31, 2032) supporting day-to-day operational expenses, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, debt service, and administrative program implementation. A prior Public Housing Capital Fund award dated May 6, 2024, ran through May 5, 2028. All funding flows from HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office as the sole customer agency.

The organization's award activity is consistent and stable: two awards per year across the five-year period 2022–2026, with thirty-six total grants recorded in the source data spanning from 2006 to April 2026. Combined dollars obligated across all awards total $7.7 million. Two awards reach ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months, creating modest recompete exposure. Merryville Housing Authority maintains continuous federal funding and is required to maintain accurate budget and cumulative cost records for HUD review in accordance with 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements. The organization serves low-income residents in Merryville, Louisiana, and operates as a standalone federal grant recipient with no teaming, subcontracting, or competitive contract activity.
