MDOT; authorize to transfer property in Harrison County to the City of Gulfport.

HB 1436 authorizes the Mississippi Department of Transportation (MDOT) to transfer two specific parcels of land at intersections in Gulfport (Harrison County) to the City of Gulfport. The parcels include the Northwest Quadrant of 13th & 28th Avenue and the Southwest Quadrant of 15th & 28th Avenue, described by lot numbers in Gulfport's original plat. Key provisions require MDOT to retain mineral rights, allow utility owners to maintain existing utilities without relocation, and grant MDOT a right of first refusal if the city sells the land. The bill also corrects a similar transfer authorization for Greene County land near a bridge, but the primary focus is enabling Gulfport to acquire these specific intersections for potential development or public use.
