Bonds; authorize issuance to assist City of Port Gibson with water and sewer infrastructure improvements.
HB 1646 authorized Mississippi to issue state bonds specifically to fund water and sewer infrastructure upgrades in Port Gibson, Mississippi, including replacing water lines, sewer lines, and related system improvements. The bill directed proceeds from bond sales (managed by the State Bond Commission) to be used solely for these city projects, with the state pledging full credit for repayment. The bill died in committee on February 26, 2025, meaning it did not advance to become law or provide funding for Port Gibson's infrastructure needs.
