HB 1779 Mississippi House · 2026 Regular Session

Bonds; authorize issuance to assist City of Indianola and Sunflower Consolidated School District with certain projects.

HB 1779 authorizes Mississippi to issue state general obligation bonds to fund two specific projects: an access road improvement at Indianola Airport and Industrial Park, and the Sunflower Consolidated School District's "Leader in ME" workforce development program. The bonds would provide direct financial assistance to the City of Indianola for infrastructure costs and to the school district for workforce training initiatives. This legislation creates a funding mechanism through bond proceeds but does not alter existing policies or regulations. The bill affects local government (Indianola) and public education (Sunflower District) through targeted financial support.
