(3) On June 1 of each year, any portion of the allocation made to the regional affordable allocation pool pursuant to subsection (2) for which the division has not issued a confirmation must be added to the statewide affordable housing allocation pool. On and after June 1 of each year, any portion of such allocation for which a confirmation is relinquished by the issuer receiving such allocation before the expiration thereof must be added to the statewide affordable housing allocation pool.
(4) From June 1 through September 30 of each year, the statewide affordable housing allocation pool must be available for issuing confirmations for affordable housing bonds to issuers statewide as provided in this subsection. (a) On June 1 of each year, if a sufficient amount of state volume limitation is available in the statewide affordable housing allocation pool, the division must issue confirmations for all notices of intent to issue previously placed on the pending list for the regional affordable housing pool pursuant to s. 159.8052(1)(b) during such year. After confirmations have been issued for all notices of intent to issue previously placed on the pending list for the regional affordable housing pool pursuant to s. 159.8052(1)(b), the statewide affordable housing allocation pool must be available to issue confirmations on a first-come, first-served basis. Notwithstanding s. 159.8052(1)(c), if the amount of state volume limitation available in the statewide affordable housing allocation pool is insufficient to issue a confirmation for each such notice of intent to issue, the division must issue confirmations in the priority order established in paragraph (b). (b) If the division determines that the aggregate amount requested in the notices of intent to issue placed on the pending list for the regional affordable housing pool pursuant to s. 159.8052(1)(b) during such year exceeds the state volume limitation available in the statewide affordable housing allocation pool on June 1, the division must issue confirmations for any such notices of intent to issue for multifamily affordable housing bonds in the priority order established in this paragraph, and then, subject to the availability of state volume limitation, must issue confirmations for any such notices of intent to issue for single-family affordable housing bonds in the priority order established in this paragraph until the available state volume limitation is exhausted. In establishing the priority of each such notice of intent, the division shall first assign a consecutive number to each such notice of intent to issue for multifamily affordable housing bonds and draw such numbers randomly to establish the priority of each such notice of intent to issue. The division shall assign a consecutive number to each such notice of intent to issue for single-family affordable housing bonds and draw such numbers randomly to establish the priority of each such notice of intent to issue.
