(a) Meetings. The Committee shall meet on the call of the Chairperson.
(b) Report. At each meeting of the Committee at which Tax Credit reservations from the Credit Ceiling are made, the Executive Director shall make a report to the Committee on the status of the Federal and State Tax Credits reserved and allocated.
(c) Forms. CTCAC shall develop such forms as are necessary to administer the programs and is authorized to request such additional information from applicants as is appropriate to further the purposes of the Programs. Failure to provide such additional information may cause an application to be disqualified or render a reservation null and void.
(d) Tax Credit Limitations. No applicant shall be eligible to receive Tax Credits if, together with the amount of Federal or State Tax Credits being requested, the applicant would have, in the capacity of individual owner, corporate shareholder, general partner, sponsor, or developer, received a reservation or allocation greater than fifteen percent (15%) of the total Federal Credit Ceiling for any calendar year, calculated as of February first of the calendar year.
(e) Notification. Upon receipt of an application, CTCAC shall notify the Chief Executive Officer (e g., city manager, county administrative officer, tribal chairperson) of the local jurisdiction within which the proposed project is located and provide such individual an opportunity to comment on the proposed project (IRC Section 42(m)(1)(ii)).
(f) Conflicting provisions. These regulations shall take precedence with respect to any and all conflicts with provisions of the QAP or other guidance provided by the Committee. This subsection shall not be construed to limit the effect of the QAP and other guidance in cases where said documents seek to fulfill, without conflict, the requirements of federal and state statutes pertaining to the Tax Credit Programs.
(g) The Committee may, at its sole discretion, reject an application if the proposed project fails to meet the minimum point requirements established by the Committee prior to that funding round. The Committee may establish a minimum point requirement for competitive rounds under either Section 10325 or 10326.
(h) Notwithstanding any other provision of these regulations, only projects receiving a tax-exempt bond allocation from CDLAC shall be eligible for State Tax Credits allocated pursuant to subsection
