Lake Linden Housing Commision

Lake Linden Housing Commission, doing business as Lake Linden Housing Authority, is a tax-exempt nonprofit public housing agency based in Lake Linden, Michigan, that acts as a federal grant recipient under the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office, receiving formula grants for public housing operations and capital improvements. The agency is a subsidiary of the Village of Lake Linden Inc., a local municipality.

Lake Linden Housing Authority's federal footprint consists entirely of HUD formula grants directed at public housing administration and infrastructure. The agency receives recurring allocations under two primary federal grant programs: the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.871), which funds day-to-day operational expenses, maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, and resident supportive services; and the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872), which supports modernization, development, emergency repairs, energy efficiency upgrades, and infrastructure improvements to the Authority's public housing inventory. Recent awards include a $163,733 capital fund formula grant (April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030), an operating fund award running through December 31, 2032, and a capital fund award through May 12, 2029. The Authority's eligible use of capital funds is restricted to activities specified in its approved 5-year action plan or HUD-approved emergency work, consistent with 24 CFR 905.200.

The agency's customer concentration is absolute — all 43 awards in the source data come from HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office. Combined dollars obligated across all awards total $4.3 million. Lake Linden Housing Authority acts as a prime recipient on 100% of its grants; it carries no subrecipient role and no contract prime work. Award volume has remained modest and consistent, ranging from two to four awards per year over the past five years. Two awards reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting limited recompete exposure given the formula-grant structure of the program, which distributes annual allocations automatically to qualifying public housing agencies rather than through competitive procurement.
