Bill > HB1940

This bill appropriates $1,230,275.75 from the State General Fund to the governing authorities of the Town of Duncan, Mississippi, to help fund the town's 2024 Road Rehabilitation Project for fiscal year 2026 (which runs from July 1, 2025 to June 30, 2026). The funds will be disbursed by the State Treasurer through warrants issued by the State Fiscal Officer upon proper requisitions. The appropriation is specifically designated to assist with covering the costs of road rehabilitation in the town, and the bill is set to take effect on July 1, 2025. This type of bill is a common mechanism for state legislatures to provide direct financial support to local municipalities for specific infrastructure improvement projects, helping smaller towns complete critical infrastructure upgrades that might otherwise be financially challenging.
