Marshall County; extend repealer on, and raise annual amount of, authority to contribute to Byhalia Area Arts Council.
This bill allows the Marshall County Board of Supervisors to give up to $7,500 per year to the Byhalia Area Arts Council, a local nonprofit arts organization. It extends the legal authority for these contributions until July 1, 2028, and increases the annual funding limit from a previous amount. The change applies only to Marshall County officials who may choose to use this funding for the arts council. The bill does not require the county to provide any money, only that it has the legal option to do so if they wish.
