Bonds; authorize issuance to assist City of Pearl with improvements to city hall.
HB 189 authorizes the State of Mississippi to issue general obligation bonds to provide funding for the City of Pearl to repair, renovate, and upgrade its city hall complex and related facilities. The bill would allow the State Bond Commission to sell these bonds, with the full faith and credit of Mississippi pledged for repayment, and direct the bond proceeds exclusively to cover the city hall project costs. This would directly affect the City of Pearl by providing state financial assistance for its municipal infrastructure improvements. The bill does not create new policies or regulations but establishes a specific funding mechanism for a local government project.
