COLES COUNTY HOUSING AUTHORITY

The Cotes County Housing Authority is a public housing agency focused on administering federally funded housing assistance programs and managing affordable housing operations within its designated service area. Its core capabilities center on public housing management, tenant services, subsidy administration, and compliance with U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) regulations. The organization implements housing choice voucher programs, conducts eligibility determinations, performs property inspections, and oversees tenant-landlord relations under federal housing statutes. Specialization includes maintaining HUD-compliant recordkeeping systems, ensuring accessibility standards under the Fair Housing Act, and coordinating with local social service providers to support vulnerable populations. Its operational model emphasizes community-based service delivery and regulatory adherence over technical IT or construction contracting. Award history is not available to infer specific agency relationships or contract volumes. As a local public housing authority, it operates under the authority of HUD but does not appear to have a history of direct contract awards with other federal agencies. Its work is primarily grant-funded and administered through federal housing programs rather than competitively awarded contracts. The primary NAICS code 925110, Public Housing Administration, reflects its role as a government entity responsible for the administration of public housing and rental assistance programs. This places it within the broader public administration sector, specifically focused on housing and community development services rather than commercial contracting. Its market positioning is as a local government operator, not a private-sector contractor. The entity is structured as a 2A—meaning it is a local government agency—and is headquartered in Mattoon, Illinois. It holds no federal business certifications such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB. Its geographic presence is limited to Coles County and surrounding areas where it administers federally funded housing programs under HUD oversight. It functions as a critical local node in the national housing assistance network, delivering essential services to low-income residents through public funding mechanisms.
