SECTION 2. The director of finance is authorized to issue general obligation bonds in the sum of $250,000,000 or so much thereof as may be necessary and the same sum or so much thereof as may be necessary is appropriated for fiscal year 2020-2021 for deposit into the rental housing revolving fund.
SECTION 3. On May 30, 2020, the director of finance is authorized to transfer from the rental housing revolving fund to the emergency and budget reserve fund the sum of $250,000,000 or so much thereof as may be necessary for fiscal year 2019-2020.
SECTION 4. Act 268, Session Laws of Hawaii 2019, is amended by repealing section 4.

use.
The sum appropriated shall be expended by
the Hawaii community development authority for the purposes of this Act;
provided that the appropriation shall not lapse at the end of the fiscal year
for which the appropriation is made; provided further that all moneys unencumbered
as of June 30, 2022, shall lapse as of that date."]

or so much thereof as may be necessary and the same sum or so much thereof as
may be necessary is appropriated for fiscal year 2019-2020 to the Hawaii
