| relating to the system by which an application for a low income | ||
| housing tax credit is scored. | ||
| BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS: | ||
| SECTION 1. Section 2306.6710(f), Government Code, is | ||
| amended to read as follows: | ||
| (f) In evaluating the level of community support for an | ||
| application under Subsection (b)(1)(J), the department shall | ||
| award: | ||
| (1) positive points for positive written statements | ||
| received, unless a resolution is voted on and approved in support of | ||
| the application under Subsection (b)(1)(B); | ||
| (2) negative points for negative written statements | ||
| received; and | ||
| (3) zero points for neutral statements received. | ||
| SECTION 2. The change in law made by this Act applies only | ||
| to an application for low income housing tax credits that is | ||
| submitted to the Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs | ||
| during an application cycle that is based on the 2020 qualified | ||
| allocation plan or a subsequent plan adopted by the governing board | ||
| of the department. An application that is submitted during an | ||
| application cycle that is based on an earlier qualified allocation | ||
| plan is governed by the law in effect on the date the application | ||
| cycle began, and the former law is continued in effect for that | ||
| purpose. | ||
| SECTION 3. This Act takes effect September 1, 2019. | ||
