AN ACT MAKING AN APPROPRIATION TO THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF LEAKE COUNTY TO ASSIST IN PAYING COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH REPAIRING AND MAINTAINING COUNTY ROADS AND INFRASTRUCTURE NEEDS FOR ALL DISTRICTS FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2027.

Summary

House Bill 4102 appropriates $5 million from the Mississippi State General Fund to the Board of Supervisors of Leake County for fiscal year 2027. The money is intended to help pay for repairing and maintaining county roads and other infrastructure needs across all districts in the county. The bill is a direct local appropriation measure rather than a statewide policy change. It sets out the payment mechanism through the State Treasurer and State Fiscal Officer and specifies that the funds become available on July 1, 2026, for use during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2027.

Impact

HB4102 would create a one-time state general fund appropriation for Leake County, authorizing $5 million to support county road repair and infrastructure maintenance. It does not amend the Mississippi Code or establish a new regulatory program, but it would direct state funds to a specific local government for transportation and infrastructure purposes, affecting Leake County officials and the state fiscal officers responsible for disbursement.

Sentiment

The available record shows no committee transcript, vote history, or recorded opposition, so the bill’s sentiment appears neutral and procedural based on the text alone. The measure is framed as a local infrastructure funding request, which typically draws support when counties seek assistance for road maintenance and capital needs.

Contention

No specific points of contention are documented in the provided materials. Potential issues, if raised, would likely concern the size of the appropriation, the use of state general fund dollars for a single county, and whether the funding should be distributed through a broader statewide infrastructure formula rather than a direct local appropriation.
