AGENDA

MEETING OF THE
STATE BOARD OF ADMINISTRATION

(Contact Person: Dorothy Westwood - (850) 488-4406)
THE CAPITOL
TALLAHASSEE, FLORIDA


June 12, 2002

1. APPROVAL OF MINUTES OF MEETING HELD MAY 21, 2002. (Att. #1)

2. APPROVAL OF THE FISCAL DETERMINATION REQUIRED BY ARTICLE VII, SECTION 16(C), FLORIDA CONSTITUTION, FOR AN INCREASE OF AN AMOUNT NOT EXCEEDING $25,000,000 IN THE FLORIDA HOUSING FINANCE CORPORATION'S FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANK LIQUIDITY ADVANCE LINE:

The Florida Housing Finance Corporation (the Corporation) has submitted for approval as to fiscal determination a proposal to increase the amount of its Federal Home Loan Bank Liquidity Advance Line (the LAL) by $25,000,000 from its current level of $100,000,000 to $125,000,000. By utilizing this borrowing to redeem bonds from the Corporation's prior single family issues which otherwise would have been redeemed with the principal payments, prepayments, excess revenues, unexpended proceeds, mortgage sale proceeds, or other sources of funds, the Corporation has the opportunity to issue refunding bonds to provide new below market mortgage loans. The proceeds of such refunding bonds are the source of repayment of the LAL, provided that if no such refunding bonds are issued, funds on deposit in a Deposit Agreement securing the LAL will be used as repayment. Utilizing the LAL essentially allows the Corporation to preserve its private activity volume cap and fund more mortgage loans than it could fund without it.

The LAL shall not constitute an obligation, either general or special, of the State or of any local government thereof; neither the State nor any local government thereof shall be liable thereon. Neither the full faith, revenue, credit nor taxing power of the State of Florida, or any local governments thereof shall be pledged to the payment of the principal or interest on the LAL. The LAL shall be payable as to principal and interest solely out of revenues and other amounts pledged therefor.

RECOMMENDATION: A study of this proposal and of estimates of revenue and other available monies expected to accrue indicate that the LAL is fiscally sufficient, and the Executive Director recommends that the Board approve the fiscal determination thereof. It is further recommended that, pursuant to the requirements of Subsection 16(c) of Article VII of the revised Constitution of 1968, the Board finds and determines that in no State fiscal year will the debt service requirements of the LAL exceed the pledged revenues available for payment of such

The State Board of Administration does not assume any responsibility for, and makes no warranty (express or implied) with respect to, any other aspect of these issues except for fiscal determination.
