HB 137 Mississippi House · 2026 Regular Session

Bonds; authorize issuance to assist Town of Metcalfe with repair and renovation of town park.

HB 137 authorizes Mississippi to issue state general obligation bonds to provide funds for the Town of Metcalfe's park repair and renovation project. The bill creates a special fund to hold bond proceeds, which must be used solely for the park costs, including renovation expenses. The state pledges its full faith and credit to repay the bonds, with any shortfall covered from the state treasury. This directly affects the Town of Metcalfe by providing dedicated funding for public infrastructure improvements. The bill is procedural, focusing on bond authorization rather than policy changes.
