The
inclusion
of
this

does
not
constitute
agreement
with
11
the
explanation’s
substance
by
the
members
of
the
general
assembly.
12
This
bill
relates
to
matters
under
the
purview
of
the
13
economic

authority
and
the
Iowa

authority
14
including

19
Division

eliminates
the
requirement
that
the
Iowa
20
innovation

review
and
make
recommendations
on
all
21
applications
received
by
the
Iowa
economic
development
22
authority
(IEDA)
for
financial
assistance
under
the
Iowa
23
strategic

and
instead
requires
a

committee
appointed
by
the

and
make
recommendations.
26
Division
II
repeals
the
brownfield
redevelopment
program,

advisory
council
(council).
28
The
bill
requires
that
the
amount
of
a
redevelopment
tax
29
credit
be
determined
by
members
of
the
IEDA
appointed
by
the
30
governor

board),
rather
than
determined
by
the
board
31
in

as
required
under

law.
The
IEDA
shall

The
bill
makes
conforming
changes

related
to
elimination
of
the

4
Under
current
law,
upon
completion
of
a

an

of
the

and
submit

for
a

for
the

rehabilitation
of

to
be
considered
a
“qualified

(project),
that
the

not
be
a

in
two

more
new

that
were

not
available
for
occupancy
for

the
project,
and
the
dwelling

IEDA.
The
single-family
9
dwelling

must
be
made
available
for
occupancy
as
a
result
10
of
the
project.
The
IEDA
may
promulgate
rules
that
specify
the
11
criteria
used
to
determine
if
a
property
is
a
single-family
12
dwelling
unit,
and
to
determine
if
a

is
a
qualified
13
rehabilitation
project.
14
Under
current
law,
upon
successful
registration
of
a
15
project
under
the
historic

program,
the
eligible
taxpayer
16
(taxpayer)
shall
enter
into
an

with
the
IEDA
that
17
contains
mutually
agreeable
terms

including
the

of
the

which
shall
not
be

the
end
of
the
fiscal
year
in
which
the
agreement
is
entered
20
into,
and
the
completion
date
of
the
project,
which
shall
be
21
within
36
months
of
the
commencement
date.
Under
the
bill,
22
the
date
by
which
the
project
must
commence
shall
be
no
later
23
than
one
calendar
year
from
the
registration
date,
except
24
that
upon
application
of
the
taxpayer
the
IEDA
may
extend
the
25
date
of
commencement
up
to
12
additional
months.
The
date
by
26
which
the
project
must
be
completed
shall
be
no
later
than
27
three
consecutive
calendar
years
from
the
registration

28
except
that
upon
application
of
the
taxpayer,
the
IEDA
may
29
extend
the
date
of

another
12
months.
The
30
project
is
complete
as
of
the
date
the
property
is
placed
in
31
service.
Upon
application
of
the
taxpayer
made
prior
to
the
32
expiration
of
the
12-month
extension,
the
IEDA
may
extend
the
33
date
by
which
the

must
be
completed
up
to

nls/ko
18/

extension
is
warranted
due
to
extenuating
circumstances.
1
Under
the
bill,
the
IEDA
may
grant
historic
preservation
2
tax
credits
beyond
the
aggregate
tax
credit
award
limit
in
one
3
fiscal
year
if,
during
that
fiscal
year,
the
IEDA
receives
an
4
application
for
a
project
that
has
qualified
rehabilitation
5
expenditures
that,
if
registered,
would
make
the
taxpayer
6
eligible
for
tax
credits
of
$10
million
or
more.
The
IEDA
is
7
then
permitted
to
award
tax
credits
during
that
fiscal
year
not
8
to
exceed
20
percent
more
than
the
maximum
aggregate
tax
credit
9
award
limit.
Such
tax
credits
awarded
shall
be
considered
for
10
purposes
of
calculating
the

limit
in
the
immediately
succeeding

12
Under

consistent

Under

19
The

division
relating

issuance
of

are
vested

and
the

26

the

The
