(20 ILCS 3805/3) (from Ch. 67 1/2, par. 303)
Sec. 3.
It is hereby found and declared that as a result of public actions
involving highways, public facilities and urban renewal projects and as a
result of the spread of slum conditions and blight to formerly sound
neighborhoods and as a result of high costs of heating dwelling units,
and as a result of the shortage of and high cost of financing for
housing, there exists within Illinois a serious shortage, of decent,
safe, and sanitary housing available at low and moderate rentals to persons
and families of low and moderate income. This shortage is inimical to the
safety, health, morals and welfare of the residents of this State and the
sound growth of its communities. Private enterprise and investment, without
the assistance contemplated in this Act, is not disposed to nor can it
economically achieve the needed construction of decent, safe and sanitary
housing at rentals which persons and families of low and moderate income
can afford, nor is it disposed nor can it so achieve the urgently needed
rehabilitation of existing housing or the provision of existing housing
to those persons and families at those rentals. It is, therefore,
imperative that the cost of mortgage financing, a major factor materially
affecting rental levels in housing built by private enterprise, be made
lower in order to reduce rental levels for low and moderate income persons
and families; that the supply of housing for persons and families displaced
by public action or natural disaster be increased; and that private
enterprise be encouraged to acquire, build and rehabilitate housing which
will help prevent the recurrence of slum conditions and assist in their
permanent elimination by housing persons of varied economic means in the
same structures and neighborhoods.
It is further found and declared that the serious shortage of decent,
safe and sanitary housing in the State of Illinois is in large measure
caused by recurring critical shortages of funds in private lending
institutions available for residential mortgages at reasonable interest
rates. These shortages have contributed to serious reductions in
construction starts of new residential units and in rehabilitation of
existing housing. The unaided operations of private enterprise have not met
and cannot consistently meet the need for increased funds for residential
mortgage financing.
It is further found and declared that urban growth in this State is not
taking place in an efficient and well-planned manner. Many existing and
planned industrial and commercial facilities are not easily accessible to
the places of residence of substantial numbers of unemployed persons. The
unaided efforts of private enterprise have not met and cannot meet the
needs of providing residential dwellings in conjunction with or easily
accessible to such industrial and commercial facilities due to problems
encountered in assembling suitable building sites, the lack of adequate
public services, the unavailability of private capital for development in
such areas, and the inability of private enterprise alone to plan, finance
and coordinate industrial and commercial development with residential
development for persons and families of low and moderate income and with
public services and mass transportation facilities.
It is further found and declared that the development and provision of
decent, safe and sanitary housing available at low and moderate rentals to
persons and families of low and moderate income is being adversely
affected, in various areas, by the failure of those areas to have adequate
commercial facilities to serve the areas in which such housing may be
provided under this Act. It is further found and declared that the
coordinated development of commercial facilities in conjunction with
housing facilities can assist in providing decent, safe and sanitary
housing available at low and moderate rentals to persons and families of
low and moderate income. Moreover, the provision of housing related
commercial facilities will serve to provide employment, which is needed in
the State because of the serious and long standing level of unemployment in
the State, with the consequential reduction of public revenues and
increased costs of public services.
It is further found and declared that in the absence of direct
governmental subsidies the unaided operations of private enterprise do not
provide sufficient resources for residential construction, rehabilitation,
rental or purchase, and that support from housing related commercial
facilities is one means of stimulating residential construction,
rehabilitation, rental and purchase.
It is further found and declared that cost-effective construction
materials and techniques can significantly reduce normal heating costs, but
that the bargaining power of prospective low and moderate income tenants or
owners of housing developed under this Act is insufficient to assure the
utilization of such materials and techniques, and thus to assure affordable
heat to those who are the intended beneficiaries of this Act.
It is further found and declared that demolition and conversion of
single room occupancy hotels has exacerbated the shortage of affordable
housing for low-income persons.
It is further found and declared that the supply of decent, safe and
sanitary housing available at low and moderate rentals to persons and
families of low and moderate income is threatened by the potential
prepayment of federally subsidized mortgages.
Based upon the above findings and declarations it is therefore
determined and declared that there exist unacceptable conditions in the
State which require the creation of a body politic and corporate with power
to issue notes and bonds in order to make loans for the acquisition,
construction and rehabilitation of housing, community facilities
and housing related commercial facilities, acquire and develop
land for large-scale planned developments and new communities and, as a
means of encouraging home ownership, make loans to and purchase residential
mortgages from private lending institutions.

(20 ILCS 3805/4) (from Ch. 67 1/2, par. 304)
Sec. 4.
There is hereby created a body politic and corporate to be known as
the Illinois Housing Development Authority. The Authority shall consist of
9 members, including a senior citizen age 60 or older, of
whom not more than three shall be from any one county in
the State and of whom not more than 5 shall be of any one political
party. The Governor shall appoint the members of the Authority by and with
the advice and consent of the Senate. Three members first appointed shall
hold office until the second Monday in January, 1971 and until their
successors are appointed and qualified and four members shall hold office
until the second Monday in January, 1973 and until their successors are
appointed and qualified. The members first appointed under
this amendatory Act of 1984 shall serve for a term of 4 years, commencing
with the second Monday in January, 1985. After the
expiration of the terms of office of
those first appointed, their respective successors shall hold office from
the second Monday in January of the year of their respective appointments
for a term of four years and until their successors are appointed and
qualified. In case of vacancies in such offices during the recess of the
Senate, the Governor shall make a temporary appointment until the next
meeting of the Senate when he shall nominate some person to fill such
office, and any person so nominated, who is confirmed by the Senate, shall
hold his office during the remainder of the term and until his successor
shall be appointed and qualified. If the Senate is not in session at the
time this provision takes effect, the Governor shall make a temporary
appointment as in the case of a vacancy.

Sec. 4.1.
(a) No member of the Authority or officer, agent or
employee thereof shall, in his or her own name or in the name of a nominee,
be an officer, director or hold an ownership interest of more than 7 1/2%
in any person, association, trust, corporation, partnership or other entity
which is, in its own name or in the name of a nominee, a party to a
contract or agreement upon which the member or officer, agent or employee
may be called upon to act or vote.
(b) With respect to any direct or any indirect interest, other than an
interest prohibited in subsection (a), in a contract or agreement upon which
the member or officer, agent or employee may be called upon to act or vote, a
member of the Authority or officer, agent or employee thereof shall
disclose the same to the secretary of the Authority prior to the taking of
final action by the Authority concerning such contract or agreement and
shall so disclose the nature and extent of such interest and his or her
acquisition thereof, which disclosures shall be publicly acknowledged by
the Authority and entered upon the minutes of the Authority. If a member of
the Authority or officer, agent or employee thereof holds such an interest
then he or she shall refrain from any further official involvement in
regard to such contract or agreement, from voting on any matter pertaining
to such contract or agreement, and from communicating with other
members of the Authority or its officers, agents and employees concerning
said contract or agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, any
contract or agreement entered into in conformity with this subsection (b)
shall not be void or invalid by reason of the interest described in this
subsection, nor shall any person so disclosing the interest and refraining
from further official involvement as provided in this subsection be guilty
of an offense, be removed from office or be subject to any other penalty on
account of such interest.
(c) Any contract or agreement made in violation of paragraphs (a) or (b)
of this Section shall be null and void and give rise to no action against
the Authority. No real
estate to which a member or employee of the Authority holds legal title or
in which such person has any beneficial interest, including any interest in
a land trust, shall be purchased by the Authority or by a nonprofit
corporation or limited-profit entity for a development or any housing
related commercial facilities to be financed under this Act. All members and
employees of the Authority shall file annually with the Authority a record
of all real estate in this State to which such person holds legal title or
in which such person has any beneficial interest, including any interest in
a land trust. In the event it is later disclosed that the Authority has
purchased real estate in which a member or
employee had an interest, such purchase shall be voidable by the Authority
and the member or employee involved shall be disqualified from membership
in or employment by the Authority.

(20 ILCS 3805/7.2) (from Ch. 67 1/2, par. 307.2)
Sec. 7.2.
The Authority may make mortgage or other loans to non-profit
corporations and limited-profit entities for the acquisition, construction or
substantial or moderate rehabilitation of such developments as in the
judgement of the Authority
have promise of supplying, on a rental, cooperative, condominium or home
ownership basis, well planned, well designed energy-efficient housing
for low or moderate
income persons or families at low or moderate rentals in locations where
there is a need for such housing. Such loans may be for development costs
and construction financing as well as permanent financing, and
may provide
financing for community facilities to the extent permitted by applicable
Authority regulations. The Authority may also make loans to
individuals, joint ventures, partnerships, limited partnerships, trusts or
corporations, including not-for-profit corporations, for the acquisition,
construction, equipment or rehabilitation of housing related commercial facilities.
When the Authority makes a loan for housing related commercial facilities,
it may require as a condition of the loan that a portion of the borrower's receipts
from the use of the facilities be used for the construction, acquisition,
rehabilitation, operation or maintenance or payment of debt service on a
development to which the facilities relate. The Authority may set from
time to time the interest
rates and other terms and conditions at which it shall make mortgage
and other loans and
may establish other terms and conditions with respect to the making of such
loans, including the charging of fees or penalties for the late payment of
principal and interest on its loans.
When the loan by the Authority is for the purpose of providing housing
on a condominium or home ownership basis, sale of the housing units by the
nonprofit corporation or limited-profit entity shall be to individual
purchasers who are persons or families of low or moderate income and shall
be subject to the approval of the Authority. Upon the sale by the nonprofit
corporation or limited-profit entity of any housing unit to a low or
moderate income person, such housing unit shall be released from the
overall development mortgage running from the nonprofit corporation or
limited-profit entity to the Authority and, as to such housing unit, the
overall development mortgage shall be replaced by an individual mortgage
running from the low or moderate income purchaser to the Authority.
To secure notes or bonds of the Authority
in connection with loans made pursuant to this Section for a development or
other facilities, the Authority may require or obtain for the benefit of itself,
the holders of the notes or bonds or their trustee, mortgages, pledges,
assignments, liens, letters of credit, guarantees or other security
interests or devices from any persons or entities, whether or not the owner
of the development or facilities, and covering any property, real or
personal, tangible or intangible, whether or not pertaining to the
development or facilities.
When the Authority issues Affordable Housing Program Trust Fund Bonds or
Notes in connection with loans made pursuant to this Section for financing low
and very low income residential housing as provided in the Illinois Affordable
Housing Act, to secure such bonds and notes, the Authority, in addition to the
other devices, security interests, mortgages and rights provided by this
Section and other provisions of this Act, may pledge and grant rights in Trust
Fund Moneys as provided in Section 9 of the Illinois Affordable Housing Act.

The total cost of the development shall include construction or rehabilitation costs including job overhead and a builder's and sponsor's profit and risk fee, architectural, engineering, legal, and accounting costs, organizational expenses, land value, interest and financing charges paid during construction, and the cost of landscaping and off-site improvements, whether or not such costs have been paid in cash or in a form other than cash.

Sec. 8.1.
With respect to mortgage loans for developments financed by
the issuance of the Authority's bonds and notes and not covered under the
Low-Income Housing Preservation and Resident Homeownership Act of 1990 (12
U.S.C. 4101 et seq.) created by Title VI of the Cranston-Gonzalez National
Affordable Housing Act, the owner may not make, and the Authority may not
accept, a prepayment of the mortgage loan except in accordance with the
provisions of this Section.
(a) For those developments covered under this Section, the owner may
make, and the Authority may accept, a prepayment of the mortgage loan if
the owner enters into an agreement with the Authority to extend to the full
term of the mortgage loan the affordability restrictions on those units
affordable to low income persons and families or create a comparable number
of new units of housing affordable for low income persons and families. As
used in this Section, "affordability restrictions" means limits imposed by
a federal or Authority regulation, regulatory agreement or rent subsidy
contract on tenant rents, rent contributions, or income eligibility for the
development so as to require that the units be affordable to low income
persons and families.
(b) If the owner does not enter into the agreement described in
subsection (a), prior to the owner making and the Authority accepting
prepayment of the mortgage loan on those developments covered by this
Section the owner shall provide notice to the tenants of the development of
the owner's intent to prepay the mortgage loan and the tenants' rights
under this Section. The notice shall be in a form approved by the
Authority and shall be delivered at least 9 months prior to the date the
owner intends to prepay the mortgage loan.
(c) If the owner does not enter into the agreement described in
subsection (a) and intends to cause the prepayment of the mortgage loan,
the tenants shall have the first right to purchase the development as follows:
(d) The provisions of this Section shall not apply to any of the
following: a government taking by eminent domain or negotiated purchase; a
forced sale pursuant to a foreclosure; or a transfer by gift, devise or
operation of law.
(e) If the Authority determines, in its sole discretion, that the
tenants of the development failed to form a tenant association as defined
in this Section, or that the tenant association or its designee failed to
provide notice to the owner of the formation of a tenant association under
paragraph (1) of subsection (c), failed to provide notice to the owner of
its intent to purchase under paragraph (2) of subsection
(c), failed to provide a bona fide offer to purchase under paragraph (3) of
subsection (c), or failed to close on the development under paragraph (4) of
subsection (c), the owner may prepay the mortgage loan and the Authority
may accept the prepayment of the mortgage loan.
(f) The owner and the tenant association or its designee shall timely
forward a copy of all notices required under this Section to the Authority.

Sec. 10.
The Authority shall approve a tenant selection plan submitted by the
applicant for the loan prior to disbursing any funds in connection with the acquisition, rehabilitation, or construction of a development. The Authority shall formulate regulations from time
to time setting forth the criteria for tenant selection plans. These
criteria shall include income limits, which may vary with the size and
circumstances of the family unit of tenants. The income limits shall be
sufficiently flexible to avoid undue economic homogeneity among the tenants
of a development. The Authority may formulate regulations from time to time
for the alteration of occupancies of tenants who exceed established income
limits. The tenant selection plan shall specify how many units in the
development shall be held available for rentals to persons of low or
moderate income, as defined in this Act.
In determining the number of units which shall be so held available for
rental to persons of low or moderate income, the Authority shall require
that the number of dwelling units so held reserved for them in each
development shall not be less than the number required by applicable federal
and State law.
In connection with any mortgage loan for a development, the Authority
may enter into an agreement with the owner of the development as a part of
the loan providing that as long as the loan remains outstanding or such
longer period as is set forth in the agreement, the development shall be
held available for such rentals. Any such agreement shall, upon being
recorded in the manner provided for recording of deeds or registered in the
manner specified for registration of titles, be binding upon any subsequent
owners of the development as provided by its terms.

In order to encourage developments which are not economically
homogeneous and to achieve rent charges which will make units available to
persons and families of low income at low rentals, the Authority and a
mortgagor may use devices including, but not limited to: direct rental
assistance in the form of partial rent subsidy from any county, municipal,
State or federal source; allocation of lower rents to less desirable
locations and apartments with less expensive facilities; and the raising of
rents in the majority of apartments in the development in order to lower
the rents of those in the lower rent charge category. With respect to each
development the Authority shall, prior to initial occupancy, allocate and
prescribe the number of lower rental units and the rents to be charged
therefor. The allocation may be reviewed and adjusted from time to time.
The method of achieving lower rental charges shall, in each instance, be
prescribed by the Authority.

The Authority may from time to time issue its negotiable
bonds and notes in such principal amount, as, in the opinion of the
Authority, shall be necessary to provide sufficient funds for achieving
its corporate purposes, including the making of mortgage or other loans
for the acquisition, construction and rehabilitation of housing to
be occupied by low and moderate
income persons, for the acquisition, construction and rehabilitation
of community
facilities as provided in
this Act and for the acquisition,
construction and rehabilitation of housing related
commercial facilities; the acquisition of land and land development;
the purchase of
residential mortgages from lending institutions; the making of loans to
lending institutions; the payment of interest on bonds and notes of the
Authority; the establishment of reserves to secure such bonds and notes;
and all other expenditures of the Authority incidental to and necessary
or convenient to carrying out its corporate purposes and powers, including
the reimbursement of the Authority for expenditures made by it from other
funds for achieving its corporate purposes set forth in this Section. The
bonds and notes of the Authority may be issued as general obligations of
the Authority payable from such revenues, funds and obligations of the
Authority
as the resolution authorizing issuance of the bonds or notes shall
provide, or may be issued as limited obligations with a claim for payment
solely from such revenues, funds and obligations as the resolution
authorizing issuance of the bonds or notes shall provide. The Authority is
specifically granted the power and authority to issue Affordable Housing
Program Trust Fund Bonds or Notes, provided that the use of the proceeds
thereof is subject to the limitation provided in the Illinois Affordable
Housing Act. Except for such limitation and the dedication and pledge of Trust
Fund Moneys provided for in that Act, Affordable Housing Program Trust Fund
Bonds or Notes shall be treated in all respects as, and shall be entitled to
all the benefits, rights, grants and authorizations in respect of, bonds and
notes issued pursuant and subject to the provisions of this Act. The
Authority shall have no taxing power.

limitation, establishing for the State a qualified mortgage credit
certificate program, enforcing and carrying out that program, and giving
notice of the provisions of the program.

(Source: P.A. 76-1175.)
(20 ILCS 3805/16) (from Ch. 67 1/2, par. 316)
Sec. 16.
The notes and bonds issued under this Act shall be
authorized by resolution of the members of the Authority, shall bear
such date or dates, and shall mature at such time or times, in the case
of any note, or any renewal thereof, not exceeding 15 years (or such
longer time not exceeding 25 years if the Authority shall determine, with
respect to notes issued in anticipation of bonds, that a longer maturity
date is required in order to assure the ability to issue the bonds), from the
date of issue of such original note, and in the case of any bond not
exceeding 50 years from the date of issue, as the resolution may
provide. The bonds may be issued as serial bonds or as term bonds or as
a combination thereof. The notes and
bonds shall bear interest at such rate or rates as shall be determined by
the members of the Authority by the resolution authorizing issuance of the
bonds and notes provided, however, that notes and bonds issued after July
1, 1983, shall bear interest at such rate or rates not exceeding the
greater of (i) the maximum rate established in "An Act to authorize
public corporations to issue bonds, other evidences of indebtedness and tax
anticipation warrants subject to interest rate limitations set forth
therein", approved May 26, 1970, as from time to time in effect; (ii) 11%
per annum or (iii) 70% of the prime commercial rate in effect at the time
the contract is made. In the event the Authority issues notes or bonds
not exempt from income taxation under the Internal Revenue Code of 1954,
as amended, such notes or bonds shall bear interest at a rate or rates as
shall be determined by the members of the Authority by the resolution
authorizing issuance of the bonds and notes. Prime commercial rate means
such prime rate as from time to time is publicly announced by the largest
commercial banking institution located in this State, measured in terms of
total assets. A contract is made with respect to notes or bonds when the
Authority is contractually obligated to issue and sell such notes or bonds
to a purchaser who is contractually obligated to purchase them. The notes
and bonds shall be in such denominations, be in such form, either coupon or
registered, carry such registration privileges, be executed in such manner,
be payable in
such medium of payment, at such place or places and be subject to such
terms of redemption as such resolution or resolutions may provide. The
notes and bonds of the Authority may be sold by the Authority, at public
or private sale, at such price or prices as the Authority shall determine.
In lieu of establishing the rate at which notes or bonds of the
Authority shall bear interest and the price at which the notes or bonds
shall be sold, the resolution authorizing their issuance may set maximum
and minimum prices, interest rates and annual interest cost to the
Authority for that issue of notes or bonds (computed as the resolution
shall provide), such that the difference between the maximum and minimum
annual interest cost shall not exceed 1% of the principal amount of the
notes or bonds. Such a resolution shall authorize any two of the Chairman,
Treasurer or Director (or in the Director's absence, the Deputy Director)
to establish the actual price and interest rate within the range
established by the resolution.
In lieu of establishing the dates, maturities or other terms
of the notes or bonds, the resolution authorizing their issuance may
authorize any two of the Chairman, Treasurer or Director (or in the
Director's absence, the Deputy Director) to establish such dates,
maturities and other terms within ranges or criteria established by the resolution.
In connection with the issuance of its notes and bonds, the Authority may
enter into arrangements to provide additional security and liquidity for
the notes and bonds. These may include, without limitation, letters of
credit, lines of credit by which the Authority may borrow funds to pay or
redeem its notes or bonds and purchase or remarketing arrangements for
assuring the ability
of owners of the Authority's notes and bonds to sell or to have redeemed
their notes and bonds. The Authority may enter into contracts and may agree
to pay fees to persons providing such arrangements, but only under
circumstances in which the total interest paid or to be paid on
the notes or bonds, together with the fees for the arrangements (being
treated as if interest), would not, taken together, cause the notes or bonds to
bear interest, calculated to their absolute maturity, at a rate in excess
of the maximum rate allowed by this Act.
The resolution of the Authority authorizing the issuance of its notes or
bonds may provide that interest rates may vary from time to time depending
upon criteria established by the Authority, which may include, without
limitation, a variation in interest rates as may be necessary to cause
notes or bonds to be remarketable from time to time at a price equal
to their principal amount (or compound accredited value in case of original
issue discount bonds), and may provide for appointment of a national
banking association, bank, trust company, investment bank or other financial
institution to serve as a remarketing agent in that connection. The
resolution of the Authority authorizing the issuance of its notes or bonds
may provide that alternative interest rates or provisions will apply during
such times as the notes or bonds are held by a person providing a letter of
credit or other credit enhancement arrangement for those notes or bonds.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of law, there shall be no statutory
limitation on the interest rates which such variable rate notes and bonds
may bear from time to time.
In addition to the other authorizations contained in this Section, the
Authority may adopt a resolution or resolutions granting to any two of the
Chairman, Treasurer or Director (or in the Director's absence, the Deputy
Director) the power to authorize issuance of notes or bonds, or both, on
behalf of the Authority from time to time without further resolution of the
Authority. Any such resolution shall contain a statement of the maximum
aggregate amount of notes or bonds that may be outstanding at any one time
pursuant to the authorization granted in such resolution. Such resolution
shall also contain a statement of the period of time during which such
notes or bonds of the Authority may be so issued. Such resolution shall
also delegate specifically or generally to the persons empowered to
authorize issuance of the notes or bonds the authority to establish or
approve any or all matters relating to the issuance and sale of the notes
or bonds, which may include the interest rates, if any, which the notes
or bonds shall bear and the prices (including premiums or discounts, if
any) at which they shall be issued and sold, or the criteria upon which
such interest rates and prices may vary, the appointment of remarketing
agents, the approval of alternative interest rates, whether there shall be
any statutory or other limitation on the interest rates which such notes or
bonds may bear (treating as if interest the fees for any arrangements to
provide additional security and liquidity for the notes and bonds), and the
dates, maturities and other terms and conditions on which the notes or
bonds shall be issued and sold. Any or all of such matters may vary from
issue to issue and within an issue. Any such resolution may set forth the
criteria by which any or all of the matters entrusted to the persons
designated in such resolution are to be established or approved, and may
grant the power to authorize issuance of notes or bonds which are exempt
from income taxation under the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, as amended,
or which are not exempt.
Notwithstanding any other provision of law, and in addition to any other
authority provided by law, with respect to mortgage or other loans made
by it, the Authority may require payments of principal, make interest charges
and impose prepayment premiums or penalties (in addition to any fees or
charges made by the Authority) so that such principal, interest and premiums
or penalties are sufficient to enable the Authority to pay when due all
principal, interest and redemption premiums or penalties on any notes or
bonds issued by the Authority to finance or continue the financing of such
loans (including a proportionate share of such bonds or notes issued to
fund reserves or to cover any discount) and to make any required deposits
in any reserve funds; and any contract relating to any mortgage or other
loan made by the Authority may provide for changes during its term in the
rate at which interest shall be paid, to the extent the changes are provided
for in order to enable the Authority to make payments with respect to bonds
or notes as provided in this Section.

The Authority shall pay into the capital reserve fund: (a) all moneys
specifically appropriated, earmarked or made available by gift, grant,
or otherwise, from any source, public or private, for the purposes of
meeting expenditures authorized from such fund; (b) any proceeds of sale
of notes or bonds, to the extent provided in the resolution of the

Act, in such amounts and at such times as the Authority deems necessary
for the purposes of this fund; and (d) any other income or moneys
available to the Authority from any other source or sources for the
purpose of such fund.
All moneys held in the capital reserve fund, except as hereinafter
provided, shall be used solely for the payment of the principal or
annual sinking fund payment of bonds of the Authority as the same
mature, the purchase of bonds of the Authority, the payment of interest
on such bonds of the Authority or the payment of any redemption premium
required to be paid when such bonds are redeemed prior to maturity.
Moneys in the capital reserve fund shall not be withdrawn at any time in
such amount as would reduce the amount of the fund to less than the
maximum amount of principal and interest or annual sinking fund payment,
whichever is less, maturing and becoming due in any succeeding calendar
year on all bonds of the Authority then outstanding, except for the
purpose of paying principal of and interest on bonds of the Authority
becoming due, whether at maturity or by annual sinking fund payment, and
for the payment of which other moneys of the Authority are not
available. Any income or interest earned by, or increment to, the
capital reserve fund due to the investment thereof may be transferred by
the Authority to the general fund or any other fund of the Authority to
the extent it does not reduce the amount of the capital reserve fund
below the maximum amount of principal and interest or annual sinking
fund payment, whichever is less, maturing and becoming due in any
