More pooled financing for local infrastructure

The law raises the Infrastructure Pool cap to $125 million in net proceeds. The Oklahoma Development Finance Authority can issue new pooled obligations after paying off older ones, but must stay under the cap. Financing must be pooled for two or more eligible local governments and the project must be in Oklahoma. At least 65% of net proceeds must benefit places with 300,000 people or fewer, based on the latest federal census. Up to 35% may benefit any eligible local government, no matter its size.
