Wagon Mound Housing Authority

Wagon Mound Housing Authority, a local government entity based in Wagon Mound, New Mexico, is a federal grant recipient operating entirely under the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office, with no federal contracting activity or subcontractor engagement. The organization receives formula grants for public housing operations and capital improvements across a single customer agency.

Wagon Mound Housing Authority administers two primary HUD grant programs. The Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850) provides operating subsidies to cover day-to-day operational expenses, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, and debt service. The Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) funds public housing modernization, development, management improvements, and other eligible capital activities as specified in approved 5-Year Action Plans or HUD-approved emergency work. The recipient holds active operating-fund grants running through December 2031 and 2032, and capital-fund grants completing through May 2029. Representative awards include a Public Housing Capital Fund grant awarded May 13, 2025, with ultimate completion March 31, 2029; a Public Housing Operating Fund grant awarded January 1, 2026, completing December 31, 2032; and a Public Housing Capital Fund grant awarded May 6, 2024, completing May 5, 2028.

The award footprint shows consistent, modest annual activity. Over the last five years, Wagon Mound Housing Authority received two awards per year, with forty total awards across the source-data window spanning from 2006 to 2026. The combined dollars obligated across all forty awards total $2.1 million, reflecting the formula-grant structure typical of smaller public housing authorities serving limited unit inventories. Two awards face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and will require recompete or renewal processing. The organization operates exclusively as a prime recipient with no sub-award activity, and the entire award footprint derives from a single funding agency — the HUD Public and Indian Housing Office — indicating complete customer concentration in the public housing grant ecosystem with no federal contracting relationships or diversification into other agencies.
