Bill > SB2544

This bill amends Section 10 of Chapter 534, Laws of 2024, which details the disbursement of funds from the 2024 Local Improvements Projects Fund. The bill makes several technical corrections and clarifications to the funding allocations for various local projects across Mississippi. Some notable changes include modifying the recipient of funds for a project associated with Neshoba County General Hospital, changing the designated entity from East Central Community College to the Mississippi University of Women. The bill provides funding for a wide range of local infrastructure, public safety, community development, and improvement projects, with allocations ranging from $20,000 to $10,000,000. These projects cover diverse areas such as road repairs, fire department equipment, courthouse renovations, water and sewer infrastructure improvements, park developments, and economic development initiatives across numerous counties and municipalities in Mississippi. The funding is to be disbursed by the Department of Finance and Administration according to the specified allocations, and the bill includes a standard clause stating that it will take effect immediately upon passage.
