Bonds; authorize issuance to assist Town of Bude with public safety enhancements.

HB 1663 is a proposed bill that would authorize Mississippi to issue state general obligation bonds to fund public safety equipment for the Town of Bude. Specifically, it would provide funds to purchase police vehicles, cameras, and related equipment for Bude's police department to enhance law enforcement capabilities. The bill outlines the bond issuance process and specifies that proceeds must be used solely for these public safety purposes. The bill was referred to the Ways and Means committee but died there in February 2025 and never became law.
