HB 1995 Mississippi House · 2025 Regular Session

Tunica County; authorize contributions to the Tunica County Economic Development Foundation, Inc.

This bill authorizes Tunica County's Board of Supervisors to contribute up to $10 million annually from county funds to the Tunica County Economic Development Foundation, Inc., through 2029. It directly affects county taxpayers through potential use of public funds and the foundation through received contributions. The authorization permits these annual contributions without requiring new taxes or budget allocations. The bill specifies only the funding limit ($10 million/year) and duration (through 2029), not how the funds must be used.
