General Fund; FY2026 appropriation to Chickasaw County for the purchase of equipment and upgrades for the county fire departments.

SB 3220 allocates $100,000 from Mississippi's General Fund to Chickasaw County for equipment purchases and facility upgrades for all 10 county fire departments during fiscal year 2026 (July 1, 2025-June 30, 2026). The funds must be distributed equally among the 10 fire departments to cover costs for new equipment and infrastructure improvements. This appropriation is funded through state general revenues and becomes effective July 1, 2025. The bill directly supports local fire departments' operational readiness without altering broader state policy.
