SB 2161 appropriates $1.6 million from Mississippi's General Fund to the City of Belzoni for specific infrastructure projects during fiscal year 2027 (July 1, 2026-June 30, 2027).

This is a straightforward funding allocation with no policy changes - only the transfer of state money to address existing infrastructure needs. The bill requires state payment upon proper requisitions and takes effect July 1, 2026.
