Bill Text

PAG LIN
  1  1    Section 1.  Section 7C.5, Code 1999, is amended to read as
  1  2 follows:
  1  3    7C.5  FORMULA FOR ALLOCATION.
  1  4    Except as provided in section 7C.4A, subsections 1 through
  1  5 5, the on the first day of a calendar year on which
  1  6 applications are received by the governor's designee, the
  1  7 state ceiling shall be allocated based on a drawing conducted
  1  8 at the end of the day by the governor's designee.  The drawing
  1  9 shall include all applications received from political
  1 10 subdivisions by the governor's designee during that first day
  1 11 of the calendar year on which applications are received and
  1 12 the seven days preceding that first day of the calendar year.
  1 13 Beginning on the second day of the calendar year on which
  1 14 applications are received, any remaining state ceiling shall
  1 15 be allocated among all political subdivisions on a statewide
  1 16 basis on the basis of the chronological orders of receipt by
  1 17 the governor's designee of the applications described in
  1 18 section 7C.6 with respect to a definitive issue of bonds, as
  1 19 determined by the day, hour, and minute time-stamped on the
  1 20 application immediately upon receipt by the governor's
  1 21 designee.  However, for the period January 1 through June 30
  1 22 of each year, allocations to bonds for which an amount of the
  1 23 state ceiling has been reserved pursuant to section 7C.4A,
  1 24 subsection 6, shall be made to the political subdivisions
  1 25 submitting the applications first from the reserved amount
  1 26 until the reserved amount has been fully allocated and then
  1 27 from the amount specified in section 7C.4A, subsection 7.  
  1 28                           EXPLANATION
  1 29    Currently, the state is allowed by the internal revenue
  1 30 service to provide a formula different from the formula
  1 31 provided by the internal revenue service for allocating the
  1 32 state ceiling amount of federally tax-exempt private activity
  1 33 bonds to various governmental units.  This bill amends the
  1 34 method of allocating the portion of the state ceiling reserved
  1 35 for political subdivisions and any unallocated state ceiling
  2  1 amount.  Currently, these allocations are made on the basis of
  2  2 the chronological receipt of applications from political
  2  3 subdivisions.  The governor's designee to administer the
  2  4 allocation of the state ceiling is the Iowa finance authority.
  2  5    The bill provides that on the first day of a calendar year
  2  6 on which applications are received by the governor's designee,
  2  7 the state ceiling shall be allocated based on a drawing
  2  8 conducted at the end of the day by the governor's designee.
  2  9 The bill provides that the drawing shall include all
  2 10 applications received by the governor's designee on that day
  2 11 and the seven preceding days.  Beginning on the second day of
  2 12 a calendar year on which applications are received, any
  2 13 remaining state ceiling shall be allocated on the basis of the
  2 14 chronological receipt of applications from political
  2 15 subdivisions.
