Ordinance SO2024-0012429 Passed

Non-Routine City Matters Municipal Code


Amendment of Municipal Code Chapter 2-44 by adding new Section 2-44-150 authorizing ceding of tax-exempt private activity volume cap to Illinois Housing Development Authority and Chicago Housing Authority

Auto-generated summary

Chicago, grappling with an affordable housing shortage, can issue tax-exempt bonds up to a volume cap under Illinois' Constitution and the Internal Revenue Code. The underutilized cap can be reallocated to entities like the Chicago Housing Authority and Illinois Housing Development Authority under the Illinois Private Activity Bond Allocation Act, reducing administrative burdens. The Municipal Code of Chicago is amended for this reallocation, with the Commissioner authorized to execute it, charge an administrative fee, enter intergovernmental agreements, and submit an annual report to the Committee on Finance.
