Bill > HB1899

This bill appropriates $550,000 from the State General Fund to the governing authorities of the Town of Plantersville, Mississippi, specifically to help purchase a pumper fire truck for the fiscal year 2025-2026. The bill outlines that the State Treasurer will distribute the funds through warrants issued by the State Fiscal Officer, which will be processed upon proper requisition signatures as per standard legal procedures. The appropriation is intended to assist the town in acquiring a new fire truck, which is likely meant to improve the town's emergency response capabilities. The bill specifies that the funds will be drawn from unallocated money in the State General Fund, ensuring that the appropriation does not disrupt other existing budget allocations. The legislation is set to take effect on July 1, 2025, which aligns with the beginning of the specified fiscal year, and provides a clear timeline for the fund's availability and use.
