Bonds; authorize issuance to assist City of Oxford with certain road projects.
HB 1808 authorizes Mississippi to issue state bonds to fund specific road projects in Oxford. The bill directly affects the City of Oxford by providing funds for constructing two roundabouts (at College Hill Road/McElroy Drive and College Hill Road/Old Sardis Road) and adding a turn lane with bicycle lanes at College Hill Road/Jackson Avenue. Key provisions include creating a special fund for these projects and requiring bond proceeds to be used solely for the named infrastructure improvements. The state pledges its full credit for bond repayment, with funds disbursed directly to Oxford for the specified construction costs.
