33688.  (a) For purposes of this section, an “authorized issuer” is limited to a joint powers entity created pursuant to Article 1 (commencing with Section 6500) of Chapter 5 of Division 7 of Title 1 of the Government Code that consists of no less than 100 local agencies issuing bonds pursuant to the Marks-Roos Local Bond Pooling Act of 1984 (Article 4 (commencing with Section 6584) of Chapter 5 of Division 7 of Title 1 of the Government Code).(b) An authorized issuer may issue bonds, notes, or other evidence of indebtedness to provide net proceeds to make one or more loans to one or more agencies to be used by the agency to timely make the payment required by Section 33685, 33690, or 33690.5.(c) With the prior approval of the legislative body by adoption of a resolution by a majority of that body that recites that a first lien on the property tax revenues allocated to the legislative body will be created in accordance with subdivision (h), an agency may enter into an agreement with an authorized issuer issuing bonds pursuant to subdivision (b) to repay a loan used to make the payment required by Section 33685, 33690, or 33690.5. For the purpose of calculating the amount that has been divided and allocated to the agency to determine whether the limitation adopted pursuant to Section 33333.2 or 33333.4 or pursuant to an agreement or court order that has been reached, any funds used to repay a loan entered into pursuant to this section shall be deducted from the amount of property tax revenue deemed to have been received by the agency.(d) A loan made pursuant to this section shall be repayable by the agency from any available funds of the agency not otherwise obligated for other uses and shall be repayable by the agency on a basis subordinate to all existing and future obligations of the agency.(e) Upon making a loan to an agency pursuant to this section, the trustee for the bonds issued to provide the funds to make the loan shall timely pay, on behalf of the agency, to the county auditor of the county in which the agency is located the net proceeds (after payment of costs of issuance, credit enhancement costs, and reserves, if any) of the loan in payment in full or in part, as directed by the agency, of the amount required to be paid by the agency pursuant to Section 33685, 33690, or 33690.5 and shall provide the county auditor with the repayment schedule for the loan, together with the name of the trustee.(f) In the event the agency shall fail to repay timely, at any time and from time to time, the loan in accordance with the schedule provided to the county auditor, the trustee for the bonds shall promptly notify the county auditor of the amount of the payment on the loan that is past due.(g) The county auditor shall reallocate from the legislative body and shall pay, on behalf of the agency, the past due amount from the first available proceeds of the property tax allocation that would otherwise be transferred to the legislative body pursuant to Chapter 6 (commencing with Section 95) of Part 0.5 of Division 1 of the Revenue and Taxation Code. This transfer shall be deemed a reallocation of the property tax revenue from the legislative body to the agency for the purpose of payment of the loan, and not as a payment by the legislative body on the loan.(h) To secure repayment of a loan to an agency made pursuant to this section, the trustee for the bonds issued to provide the funds to make the loan shall have a lien on the property tax revenues allocated to the legislative body pursuant to Chapter 6 (commencing with Section 95) of Part 0.5 of Division 1 of the Revenue and Taxation Code. This lien shall arise by operation of this section automatically upon the making of the loan without the need for any action on the part of any person. This lien shall be valid, binding, perfected, and enforceable against the legislative body, its successors, creditors, purchasers, and all others asserting rights in those property tax revenues, irrespective of whether those persons have notice of the lien, irrespective of the fact that the property tax revenues subject to the lien may be commingled with other property, and without the need for physical delivery, recordation, public notice, or any other act. This lien shall be a first priority lien on these property tax revenues. This lien shall not apply to any portion of the property taxes allocated to the agency pursuant to Section 33670.(Amended by Stats. 2009, 4th Ex. Sess., Ch. 21, Sec. 5. (AB 26 4x) Effective October 23, 2009.)
