HB 368 Mississippi House · 2026 Regular Session

Bonds; authorize issuance for repair and renovation projects at Mississippi Valley State University.

HB 368 authorizes Mississippi to issue state general obligation bonds to fund repairs and renovations of buildings and facilities at Mississippi Valley State University (MVSU). The bill directly affects MVSU, which will receive the bond proceeds for campus infrastructure projects, and Mississippi taxpayers, who ultimately bear the obligation through state funds. Key mechanisms include using bond proceeds solely for MVSU facility upgrades (with costs incident to bond issuance covered), pledging the state's full faith and credit for repayment, and exempting the bonds from state taxation. The bonds would be sold by the State Bond Commission, with proceeds deposited into a dedicated MVSU fund.
