HB 1791 Mississippi House · 2026 Regular Session

Bonds; authorize issuance to assist DeSoto County with improvements to Mississippi Highway 305.

HB 1791 authorizes Mississippi to issue state general obligation bonds to fund specific highway improvements in DeSoto County. The bill directly affects DeSoto County by providing state financial assistance for two key projects: five-laning Mississippi Highway 305 between Belle Forest Drive and College Road, and adding a turn lane at the intersection with Cedar Creek Drive. The bonds would be backed by the state's full faith and credit, with proceeds exclusively used for these highway upgrades and related costs. This is a funding mechanism, not a policy change to road design or traffic rules.
