Appropriation; City of Port Gibson for water and sewer infrastructure improvements.

HB 1843 appropriates $8 million from the Mississippi State General Fund to the City of Port Gibson for water and sewer infrastructure upgrades. The funds are specifically designated to cover the costs of replacing water and sewer lines, and other improvements to the city's water and sewer systems during fiscal year 2026 (July 2025-June 2026). This direct state funding supports Port Gibson's efforts to modernize its aging utility infrastructure. The bill's mechanism is a straightforward appropriation, with funds to be paid by the State Treasurer upon proper requisitions. (Note: The bill died in committee on February 26, 2025, and did not become law.)
