Bonds; authorize issuance to assist City of Jackson with construction of a new Fire Station 5.
HB 1684 authorizes Mississippi to issue state general obligation bonds to fund the City of Jackson's construction of a new Fire Station 5. The bonds would cover demolition of the existing Station 5 on North State Street, building the new station, and purchasing a large ladder truck. Proceeds would be transferred directly to Jackson for these specific fire station costs, with repayment secured by Mississippi's full credit. The bill specifies the funds cannot be used for other purposes and requires the State Bond Commission to manage the bond issuance process.
