AN ACT MAKING AN APPROPRIATION TO NOXUBEE COUNTY FOR THE PURPOSE OF DEFRAYING COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH DISTRICT 4 BUILDING, PURCHASING AND REPAIRING THE SUPERVISOR'S WORKSHOP FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2027.

Summary

SB3369 is a Mississippi appropriations bill that provides a $100,000 General Fund appropriation to Noxubee County for fiscal year 2027. The money is designated for costs associated with District 4 building, purchasing, and repairing the supervisor’s workshop. The bill directs that the funds be paid by the State Treasurer through the normal warrant and requisition process and becomes effective July 1, 2026. The measure is a targeted local funding bill rather than a broad policy change. It creates a specific state appropriation for a county project and authorizes the use of state general funds for that purpose, but it does not amend existing regulatory statutes or create ongoing programmatic obligations beyond the single fiscal-year appropriation.

Impact

SB3369 would appropriate $100,000 from the Mississippi State General Fund to Noxubee County for a one-time local capital and repair expense tied to the supervisor’s workshop in District 4. Its legal effect is limited to authorizing the expenditure for FY2027 and establishing the payment mechanism through the State Treasurer and State Fiscal Officer. It affects Noxubee County and state fiscal administration, but does not appear to alter substantive law beyond the appropriation itself.

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 alone, the measure appears routine and locally focused, with a straightforward appropriations purpose and no apparent policy controversy reflected in the record provided.

Contention

The only likely point of contention, based on the text, would be whether state general funds should be used for a county-specific facility project rather than broader statewide needs. Any disagreement would likely center on the local nature of the expenditure, the necessity of the workshop purchase/repair, and the use of public funds for a supervisor-related building project. No specific objections or supporters are identified in the available context.
