Madison County; increase the amount of bonds that may be issued for the Madison County Economic Development Authority.
SB 3275 increases the maximum bond authorization for Madison County, Mississippi's Economic Development Authority (EDA) from its current limit to $25 million. This change allows the EDA to issue more bonds to fund economic development projects like industrial parks, infrastructure improvements, and site development within the county. The bill directly affects Madison County's ability to finance these projects through bond sales, without altering the EDA's structure or operational rules. It is a procedural adjustment to the existing bond limit, enacted as of April 10, 2025.
