Appropriation; Lowndes County Port Authority to provide rail access at both east and west bank ports.
This bill appropriates $1,000,000 from the state general fund to the Lowndes County Port Authority for fiscal year 2027. The funds will specifically cover costs associated with expanding port operations by adding rail access at both the east and west bank ports (both sides of the river). The Lowndes County Port Authority directly benefits as it uses the funding to develop rail infrastructure connecting to its existing port facilities. The appropriation is limited to the 2026-2027 fiscal year and requires state treasurer disbursement upon proper requisition. This is a straightforward funding measure for port infrastructure development, with no additional policy provisions.
