This bill provides a $5 million appropriation from the State General Fund to the Sharkey County Board of Supervisors specifically for local match funding to support the Sharkey County Emergency Management Agency's construction of critical emergency infrastructure. The funds will be used to build three specific facilities: a community safe room, an emergency operations center, and a distribution center. The appropriation is designated for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2025, and ending June 30, 2026. The State Treasurer will disburse the funds through warrants issued by the State Fiscal Officer upon proper requisitions, following standard legal payment procedures. The bill will become effective on July 1, 2025, ensuring that the funds are available at the start of the designated fiscal year to support these important emergency management facility improvements.
