HB 1983 Mississippi House · 2024 Regular Session

Bonds; authorize issuance for various purposes.

This bill authorizes the state of Mississippi to issue $20 million in general obligation bonds for the ACE Fund while adjusting the authorized bond amounts for various other economic development and infrastructure programs. It increases funding limits for initiatives such as business investment, defense base closure projects, and small unmanned aircraft system manufacturing grants, while simultaneously reducing the authorized bond totals for several other specific projects. The legislation also establishes new grant programs to support small unmanned aircraft manufacturers and state land improvements, and it extends the timeframes for issuing bonds related to heritage centers and transportation upgrades. Additionally, the bill directs the transfer of funds between existing state accounts to finance these new and modified projects.
