SB 3217 Mississippi Senate · 2024 Regular Session

Rankin County Stormwater Management Agency; authorize the establishment of.

This bill authorizes the creation of a new Rankin County Stormwater Management Agency to address flooding and drainage issues across the county. The agency would be formed only if the county's governing bodies pass an ordinance or resolution following a special election where a majority of voters approve its establishment. Once created, the agency's board of commissioners must develop a comprehensive stormwater management plan within 24 months and will have the power to levy annual utility charges on landowners within its territory. Landowners who disagree with the amount of these charges can request a hearing before the county Board of Supervisors to contest the fee.
