Appropriation; Rankin County for construction of the bridge over the Meridian Speedway.

HB 4008 appropriates $10 million from the State General Fund to Rankin County's Board of Supervisors to assist with construction costs for a bridge over the Meridian Speedway railroad on Highway 18. The funds are specifically for the fiscal year 2026-2027 (July 1, 2026-June 30, 2027) and will be paid by the State Treasurer upon proper requisitions. This bill directly affects Rankin County by providing state funding for a local infrastructure project to replace a railroad crossing with a bridge. The bill does not alter laws or create new regulations - its sole purpose is to allocate state funds for this specific construction.
