Appropriation; City of Gulfport for the winterization of homes in the area in the central city known as "The Quarter".
HB 1873 would have allocated $300,000 from Mississippi's State General Fund to the City of Gulfport for winterization projects in "The Quarter," a low-income neighborhood in central Gulfport. The funds were intended to cover home repairs, energy efficiency upgrades, and other improvements to help residents better withstand winter weather during fiscal year 2026 (July 2025-June 2026). The bill specified that "winterization" includes necessary repairs and upgrades to existing homes, not new construction. The measure was referred to the Appropriations Committee but died there on February 26, 2025, and did not become law.
