Public Records Act; exempt certain records containing client information concerning development projects.

HB 917 exempts certain client information related to development projects from Mississippi's Public Records Act for four years. It applies to public bodies (like local governments or planning agencies) holding this information, preventing public disclosure during project review and for 30 days after approval. The exemption covers details like project proposals and financial data provided to entities such as the Mississippi Development Authority, but does not apply to information required in annual reports under Section 57-1-759. This change aims to protect sensitive business negotiations while maintaining transparency requirements for specific reporting.
