A. Except as otherwise provided in the Private Activity Bond Act, all private activity bonds issued by any issuing authority and all mortgage credit certificate elections made by an issuing authority on or after the effective date of the Private Activity Bond Act shall be issued or made pursuant to an unexpired allocation. An issuing authority may issue private activity bonds or make a mortgage credit certificate election using an allocation which has been carried forward from a prior year pursuant to Section 146(f) of the code without obtaining an allocation from the board; provided, however, that the issuing authority shall furnish the board with a confirmation stating that the private activity bonds were issued or the mortgage credit certificate election was made using volume cap which was carried forward from a prior year pursuant to Section 146(f) of the code.

B. At any time in any calendar year any issuing authority may submit to the board a request for allocation seeking an allocation from the state private activity bond fund with respect to a proposed issue of private activity bonds or a proposed mortgage credit certificate election.
