Bonds; authorize issuance to assist Jackson Municipal Airport Authority with construction of an emergency access road at Hawkins Field.
HB 894 authorizes Mississippi to issue state general obligation bonds to fund the construction of an emergency access road connecting Hawkins Field (Jackson Municipal Airport) to Jackson Fire Station 20. The bill directly assists the Jackson Municipal Airport Authority by covering costs associated with building this road. Key provisions include using state bond proceeds to pay for the road's construction and development, with the full faith and credit of Mississippi pledged for bond repayment. The road is intended to improve emergency access between the airport and the fire station, a specific infrastructure need identified in the legislation.
