Bill Summary
A BILL To amend the Delta Development Act to add the Kentucky counties of Hancock, Ohio, and Daviess to the Delta Regional Authority area, and for other purposes.
AI Summary
This bill amends the Delta Development Act to expand the geographical coverage of the Delta Regional Authority (DRA), a federal-state partnership that supports economic development in the Mississippi Delta region. Specifically, the bill adds three Kentucky counties—Hancock, Ohio, and Daviess—to the existing DRA area. The change is made by modifying Section 4(2)(C) of the original act, which previously listed eligible counties, to now include these three additional Kentucky counties. By expanding the DRA's service area, the bill will potentially enable these counties to access federal resources, grants, and development programs designed to support economic growth and infrastructure improvements in the Delta region, which traditionally covers parts of several Southern states with significant economic challenges.
