The agency shall not issue bonds secured by a housing finance fund at any time if the maximum amount of principal (including sinking fund payments) and interest maturing and becoming due in the succeeding calendar year on the bonds outstanding then to be issued and secured by a housing finance fund will exceed the amount of such housing finance fund at the time of issuance, unless the agency, at the time of issuance of such bonds, shall deposit in such housing finance fund from the proceeds of the bonds or other obligations so to be issued, or otherwise, an amount which together with the amount then in such housing finance fund, will be not less than the required minimum capital reserve.c. The Housing Finance Fund established under the agency's existing General Housing Bond Resolution shall continue as a housing finance fund pursuant to the provisions of subsection a. of this section.d.
