HB 539 Mississippi House · 2025 Regular Session

Budget of county sheriff, tax assessor and tax collector; remove certain obsolete reporting requirements concerning.

HB 539 removes outdated reporting and budgeting requirements for county sheriffs, tax assessors, and tax collectors in Mississippi. Specifically, it eliminates the need for these officials to submit monthly expense reports to the Board of Supervisors for approval and deletes the requirement for the Board to appropriate a lump sum for their quarterly expenses. This simplifies administrative processes by removing obsolete provisions from state law, without changing how counties fund these offices. The bill directly affects county officials and Boards of Supervisors by reducing routine reporting burdens.
