AI Summary
This bill authorizes the State of Mississippi to issue up to $743,407 in general obligation bonds, which are essentially loans backed by the state's full faith and credit, to help Prentiss County fund improvements to its courthouse. The State Bond Commission, a group responsible for managing state debt, will oversee the issuance and sale of these bonds, with the proceeds going into a dedicated fund called the "2026 Prentiss County Courthouse Improvements Fund." This fund will be used to pay for the repair, renovation, restoration, and upgrades of the Prentiss County Courthouse. Any unspent money in the fund after the projects are completed will be used to pay off the bonds. The bill specifies that no bonds can be issued under this act after July 1, 2030, and the act itself will take effect on July 1, 2026.
