HB 1812 Mississippi House · 2025 Regular Session

Bonds; authorize issuance for repair and renovation of the Tennessee Williams Home and Welcome Center in Columbus.

HB 1812 authorizes the State of Mississippi to issue general obligation bonds to fund repairs, renovations, and maintenance of the Tennessee Williams Home and Welcome Center in Columbus. The bill creates a special fund to receive bond proceeds, which must be used exclusively for this facility's costs, including bond issuance expenses. It specifies that the bonds are backed by the state's full credit, with interest paid semiannually and tax-exempt status for investors. This is a funding mechanism for a specific historic site, not a direct policy affecting residents or businesses.
