West Haven Housing Authority

West Haven Housing Authority, a U.S. local government entity and public housing authority based in West Haven, Connecticut, receives federal formula grants from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office as a prime recipient under two primary grant programs: the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) and the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850).

The Authority's federal footprint is entirely concentrated with HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office, which has awarded it 81 grants totaling $56.9 million obligated across the source period. The Authority operates as a prime grant recipient exclusively; it does not contract as a prime or subcontractor on federal supply or service vehicles. Capital Fund grants finance infrastructure modernization, emergency repairs, energy efficiency upgrades, and development of public housing units per the Authority's HUD-approved 5-year action plan. Operating Fund grants support day-to-day operational and maintenance expenses, property management, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy cost management, resident supportive services, insurance, debt service, and administrative program implementation for its public housing portfolio serving low-income families, elderly individuals, and persons with disabilities in West Haven.

Recent representative awards include a $1.74 million Public Housing Capital Fund grant awarded April 1, 2026, with completion on March 31, 2030; a $241,751 Public Housing Operating Fund award effective January 1, 2026, through December 31, 2032; and a $197,146 Public Housing Operating Fund award also effective January 1, 2026, through December 31, 2032. Award patterns show stable activity of three to four grants per year from 2022 through 2026. Eight awards with ultimate completion dates in the next twenty-four months present recompete or renewal cycles tied to HUD's annual formula-grant distribution process. The Authority does not appear in the federal contract prime or subcontractor base and does not hold seats on federal contract vehicles, IDIQs, or GWACs; its federal engagement is limited to HUD formula-grant recipient status under the Housing Act of 1937 as amended.
