Section 18.56.086 - Creation of subsidiaries(a) The corporation may create subsidiary corporations for the purpose of financing or facilitating the financing of school construction, facilities for the University of Alaska, facilities for ports and harbors, the acquisition, development, management, or operation of housing, prepayment of all or a portion of a governmental employer's share of unfunded accrued actuarial liability of retirement systems, sustainable energy development, or other capital projects. A subsidiary corporation created under this section may be incorporated under AS 10.20.146 - 10.20.166. The corporation may transfer assets of the corporation to a subsidiary created under this section. A subsidiary created under this section may borrow money and issue bonds as evidence of that borrowing, and has all the powers of the corporation that the corporation grants to it. However, a subsidiary created for the purpose of financing or facilitating the financing of prepayment of a governmental employer's share of unfunded accrued actuarial liability of retirement systems may borrow money and issue bonds only after submitting a proposal to the Legislative Budget and Audit Committee under (b) of this section, if the state bond rating is the equivalent of AA- or better, and subject to AS 37.15.903. Unless otherwise provided by the corporation, the debts, liabilities, and obligations of a subsidiary corporation created under this section are not the debts, liabilities, or obligations of the corporation.(b) Before the issuance of bonds under this section, the subsidiary corporation shall submit a proposal to the Legislative Budget and Audit Committee for review, and 45 days shall elapse before bonds are issued, unless the Legislative Budget and Audit Committee earlier recommends that the subsidiary corporation proceed with the issuance. Should the Legislative Budget and Audit Committee recommend within the 45-day period that the subsidiary corporation not proceed with the issuance of bonds, the subsidiary corporation shall again review the proposal, and, if the subsidiary corporation decides to issue the bonds, the subsidiary corporation shall provide the Legislative Budget and Audit Committee with a statement of the subsidiary corporation's reasons for doing so before issuance under this section.(c) In managing a subsidiary created for the purpose of financing or facilitating the financing of sustainable energy development, the corporation shall consider the state energy policy described in AS 44.99.115 and shall prioritize sustainable energy development that supports energy efficiency and renewable energy for residential buildings, commercial buildings, and community facilities.Amended by SLA 2024, ch. 25,sec. 9, eff. 8/1/2024.Amended by SLA 2024, ch. 25,sec. 8, eff. 8/1/2024.Amended by SLA 2018, ch. 109,sec. 1, sec.2 eff. 12/26/2018.Amended by SLA 2013, ch. 11,sec. 2, eff. 5/21/2013.Amended by SLA 2011, ch. 7,sec. 5, eff. 5/9/2011.
