Enactment of this bill may increase the aggregate annual tax credit that the Utah Housing Corporation may allocate, resulting in a decrease in revenues to the Education Fund estimated at $689,000 in FY 2018, and $1,393,000 in FY 2019. Between FY2018 and FY2026, the average revenue decrease to the Education Fund per year will grow between $700,000 and $800,000 commensurate with population growth in the state. This allocation has no end date.
