This article was enacted in order to authorize public entities to take full advantage of financing opportunities available under the federal recovery and reinvestment act shortly after the enactment of the act and without detailed guidance from the executive branch of the federal government or courts regarding the proper interpretation of the act. If, based on additional information regarding the proper interpretation of the federal recovery and reinvestment act or amendments to the act, the governor determines that any provision of this article is not authorized by or is inconsistent with federal law or regulations or that additional legal authority is needed to authorize public entities to take full advantage of financing opportunities available under the act, the governor is expressly authorized to issue one or more executive orders that stops the operation or implementation of the unauthorized or inconsistent provision or provides the necessary additional legal authority.
