Appropriation; City of Tupelo for acquiring property to expand the city's Class II rubbish site.

HB 1836 would have provided $500,000 in state funds to the City of Tupelo to help pay for acquiring land adjacent to its current Class II landfill (a permitted waste disposal site) to expand its capacity. The city was required to contribute 100% of the acquisition costs as a matching fund. This was a one-time fiscal year 2026 appropriation, intended to support the landfill expansion project. The bill died in committee on February 26, 2025, and did not become law.
