Section 55100 Of Part 2. Bonds From California Health And Safety Code >> Division 32. >> Part 2.

. The local agency may, from time to time, issue its bonds in the principal amount as the local agency shall determine to be necessary to provide sufficient funds for financing under this division and for the payment of interest on bonds of the local agency, establishment of reserves to secure the bonds, and other expenditures of the local agency incident to, and necessary or convenient to, issuance of the bonds. Prior to the issuance of any bonds pursuant to this division, the local agency shall submit to the California Housing Finance Agency, a statement of purpose for which the bonds are proposed to be issued and the amount of the proposed issuance. The California Housing Finance Agency shall review every statement submitted to it by a local agency pursuant to this section. The California Housing Finance Agency shall determine the general adequacy of the program's security in protecting the state's credit. If the California Housing Finance Agency finds the state's credit would be subject to an undue risk, it may disapprove the proposed issuance or reduce the amount of the proposed issuance. If the California Housing Finance Agency has not acted within 30 days of the date that a statement was submitted pursuant to this section, the proposed issuance shall be deemed approved by the California Housing Finance Agency. The aggregate amount of all bonds approved by the California Housing Finance Agency pursuant to this section shall not exceed two hundred million dollars ($200,000,000). The California Housing Finance Agency shall reserve seventy-five million dollars ($75,000,000), which shall not be allocated for 24 months after the effective date of this division. No agency shall initially receive an allocation exceeding fifty million dollars ($50,000,000). If an initial request exceeds one hundred twenty-five million dollars ($125,000,000), the California Housing Finance Agency shall reduce all requests on the basis of the ratio of eligible buildings in the jurisdiction to the estimated number of eligible buildings in the state as determined by the Seismic Safety Commission until one hundred twenty-five million dollars ($125,000,000) is reached. Twenty-four months after the effective date of this division, the California Housing Finance Agency may allocate any remaining funds. Funds shall first be allocated to any local agency that has not received an allocation. If these requests exceed the available funds, the California Housing Finance Agency shall reduce all requests on the basis of the ratio of eligible buildings in the jurisdiction to the estimated number of eligible buildings in the state, as determined by the Seismic Safety Commission. If there are funds remaining after allowing for requests by local agencies that have not previously received an allocation, any local agency which had previously received an allocation may request further allocations. Any allocations made to local agencies that have previously received allocations shall be made only on the basis of the ratio of eligible buildings in the jurisdiction to the estimated number of eligible buildings in the state, as determined by the Seismic Safety Commission. Eligible buildings in the jurisdiction shall be determined on the basis of an inventory. After that authorization has been exhausted, all further proposals for issuance of bonds pursuant to this division shall be deemed disapproved by the California Housing Finance Agency. The local agency shall reimburse the California Housing Finance Agency for all administrative costs incurred by the California Housing Finance Agency pursuant to this section.
