HB 802 Mississippi House · 2026 Regular Session

Appropriation; Humphreys County for cost share needs associated with recovery projects following 2023 tornado.

HB 802 appropriates $10.6 million from the state general fund to Humphreys County's Board of Supervisors for recovery projects following the March 2023 EF4 tornado. The funding directly assists Humphreys County residents by covering partial costs for specific recovery efforts, including debris removal, road repairs, housing restoration, and building a new fire station. Key provisions require the county to use these funds for projects listed in the bill, such as replacing damaged equipment and upgrading emergency 911 systems. The appropriation applies to fiscal year 2027 (July 2026-June 2027), with funds paid by the State Treasurer upon proper requisitions.
