Sec. 394.011. APPLICATION FOR INCORPORATION. (a) The governing body of a local government shall consider a written application for the incorporation of a housing finance corporation filed with the governing body by at least three residents of the local government who are citizens of this state and at least 18 years of age.
(b) If the governing body by resolution determines that the formation of the housing finance corporation is wise, expedient, necessary, or advisable and approves the form of the proposed articles of incorporation of the corporation, the articles may be filed as provided by this chapter. A corporation may not be formed unless the application is filed with the governing body and the governing body adopts the resolution.
(c) The approval of the articles of incorporation of one housing finance corporation does not preclude the approval by the governing body of the articles of incorporation of additional corporations that have names or designations sufficient to distinguish them from previously created corporations. The governing body may not permit the incorporation on its behalf of more than one corporation that has the power to make or acquire home mortgages, or to make loans to lending institutions, the proceeds of which are to be used to make home mortgages or to make loans on residential developments.
