(a)
Upon appropriation by the Legislature for purposes of this chapter, the department may make loans or grants, or both loans and grants, to rehabilitate, capitalize operating subsidy or replacement reserves for, and extend the long-term affordability of department-funded housing projects that have an affordability restriction that has expired, that have an affordability restriction with a remaining term of less than 10 years, or are otherwise at risk for conversion.
(b)
Notwithstanding any other law, if the department makes a loan or grant pursuant to this chapter to a project that has an existing loan issued by the department for a multifamily housing project, the department may additionally approve an extension of the existing loan, the reinstatement of a qualifying unpaid matured loan, the subordination of a loan made by the department to new indebtedness, or an investment of tax credit equity for purposes of funding necessary rehabilitation and extending the affordability of the project without complying with the requirements of Chapter 3.9 (commencing with Section 50560). The department may also forgive some or all of the accrued interest on the existing department loan if necessary to
facilitate the department’s new rehabilitation loan.
(c)
The department may establish loan processing or transaction fees for loans or grants authorized by this chapter, as necessary, in an amount not to exceed the amount necessary to generate sufficient revenue to cover the cost of processing loan transactions under this chapter. However, the department may waive fees to the extent necessary for project feasibility.
(d)
The department may charge a monitoring fee in lieu of the required 0.42 percent per annum loan payments required by subdivision (a) of Section 50608. The department may capitalize fees authorized by this subdivision, at its discretion, as necessary to ensure the financial feasibility and long-term affordability of the project. All moneys set aside by the department to capitalize a
monitoring fee pursuant to this subdivision shall be deposited in the Housing Rehabilitation Loan Fund and, notwithstanding Section 13340 of the Government Code, are continuously appropriated to the department for the purposes of the default reserve set forth in Section 50609.
(e)
The department may adopt guidelines to implement this chapter. Any guidelines adopted pursuant to this section are hereby exempted from the rulemaking provisions of the Administrative Procedure Act (Chapter 3.5 (commencing with Section 11340) of Part 1 of Division 3 of Title 2 of the Government Code).
