Volume Cap - 2012

AAA

2012 Allocation


The Private Activity Bond Authority (PAB) is Utah's tax-exempt bonding authority creating a lower cost, long-term source of capital under the Federal Tax Act of 1986.  The Federal Government allocates over $32 billion per year to states on a per capita basis, with Utah receiving $284,560,000 in 2012.  Each state establishes its usage priorities by statute.  The Utah State Legislature has distributed our volume cap into the various allotment accounts listed below:

 
    Allotment Account        Percentage           Dollar Amount      
Single Family Mortgages         42%                   $119,515,200      
Student Loans                        33%                   $  93,904,800      
Small Issue Account*              24%                   $  68,294,400
     Multi-Family                         12%                      $34,147,200
     Manufacturing                       12%                     $34,147,200
     Qualified Redevelopment      
Exempt Facilities                     1%                    $    2,845,600      
                     Totals                100%                 $284,560,000     

* Allocation for the Small Issue Account is 24% of the total volume cap.  By statute, volume cap is divided evenly for projects in the Multi-Family Housing and Manufacturing categories.  Qualified Redevelopment Projects were approved for funding in 2011 out of this category, but no specific percent of the volume cap was assigned.
