AN ACT MAKING AN APPROPRIATION TO THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF LEAKE COUNTY TO ASSIST IN PAYING COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH PURCHASING EQUIPMENT TO BE USED TO MAINTAIN AND REPAIR COUNTY ROADS FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2027.

Summary

House Bill 4101 is a local appropriation measure that would provide $750,000 from the Mississippi State General Fund to the Board of Supervisors of Leake County. The money is designated to help the county purchase equipment used to maintain and repair county roads during fiscal year 2027, which begins July 1, 2026 and ends June 30, 2027. The bill does not create a new regulatory program or change statewide policy; instead, it authorizes a one-time state funding allocation to a specific county government. The appropriation would be paid by the State Treasurer upon warrants issued by the State Fiscal Officer, following the usual requisition process, and the act would take effect on July 1, 2026.

Impact

HB4101 would directly affect Leake County by providing state funds for road maintenance equipment, potentially improving the county’s ability to maintain and repair local roads. In state law terms, it is a targeted appropriations act that draws from the General Fund and directs money to a single local government entity for a specified purpose, without amending broader statutes governing roads, counties, or transportation.

Sentiment

No committee transcripts or recorded votes were provided, so there is no direct evidence of debate, support, or opposition in the available materials. Based on the bill text and caption, the measure appears straightforward and practical, aimed at funding local infrastructure needs rather than advancing a controversial policy change.

Contention

The available record does not show any specific points of contention, because there are no transcripts, amendments, or vote totals included. If concerns were raised, they would most likely relate to the use of state General Fund dollars for a county-specific appropriation, the size of the $750,000 allocation, or whether similar needs in other counties should be funded as well, but those issues are not documented in the provided materials.
