An Act To Provide For The 2026 And 2027 Allocations Of The State Ceiling On Private Activity Bonds
This bill (LD 2156) is a technical amendment clarifying how Maine's state ceiling on private activity bonds will be allocated for 2026 and 2027. It specifies that $47,625,000 of previously unallocated funds will remain with the Maine State Housing Authority, while $52,375,000 previously allocated to that agency will now be reallocated to the Finance Authority of Maine. The amendment adjusts the bill's language to accurately reflect these specific funding amounts and their intended recipients. It does not create new programs or change existing bond policies, but instead corrects and clarifies the distribution of existing allocated funds. This adjustment directly affects the Maine State Housing Authority and the Finance Authority of Maine in their management of state bond allocations.
