Bill > HB1892

This bill appropriates $62,100 from special funds in the State Treasury to the State Board of Registration for Foresters to cover its expenses for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2026, and ending June 30, 2027, with $18,626 specifically allocated for database upgrades and licensing system improvements. The Legislature intends for the Board to maintain detailed accounting and personnel records comparable to the previous fiscal year and to submit future budget requests in a similar format. Additionally, the bill mandates that the Board give preference to the Mississippi Industries for the Blind when purchasing commodities or equipment, whether through competitive bids or direct purchases, and reinforces that the agency must not incur obligations exceeding its appropriation, with responsible officers held accountable for any violations.
