§ GV.1372.026. LIMITATION ON AMOUNT OF STATE CEILING AVAILABLE TO HOUSING FINANCE CORPORATIONS

LIMITATION ON AMOUNT OF STATE CEILING AVAILABLE TO HOUSING FINANCE CORPORATIONS. (a) The maximum amount of the state ceiling that may be reserved before August 15 by a housing finance corporation for the issuance of qualified mortgage bonds may not exceed the amount computed as follows: (1) if the local population of the housing finance corporation is 300,000 or more, $36 million plus the product of the amount by which the local population exceeds 300,000 multiplied by $40; (2) if the local population of the housing finance corporation is 200,000 or more but less than 300,000, $32 million plus the product of the amount by which the local population exceeds 200,000 multiplied by $40; (3) if the local population of the housing finance corporation is 100,000 or more but less than 200,000, $24 million plus the product of the amount by which the local population exceeds 100,000 multiplied by $80; or (4) if the local population of the housing finance corporation is less than 100,000, the product of the local population multiplied by $240. (b) A housing finance corporation may not receive an allocation for the issuance of qualified mortgage bonds in an amount that exceeds the greater of: (1) $50 million; or (2) 1.70 percent of the state ceiling. (c) For purposes of this section, the local population of a housing finance corporation is the population of the local government or local governments on whose behalf a housing finance corporation is created. If two local governments that have a population of at least 50,000 each and that have overlapping territory have created housing finance corporations that have the power to issue bonds to provide financing for home mortgages, the population of the housing finance corporation created on behalf of the larger local government is computed by subtracting from the population of the larger local government the population of the part of the smaller local government that is located in the larger local government. The reduction of population provided by this subsection is not required if the smaller local government assigns its authority to issue bonds, based on its population, to the larger local government. Added by Acts 1999, 76th Leg., ch. 227, Sec. 1, eff. Sept. 1, 1999. Amended by Acts 2001, 77th Leg., ch. 1367, Sec. 10.03, eff. Sept. 1, 2001.
