HB 1841 Mississippi House · 2026 Regular Session

Bonds; authorize issuance to assist Hinds County with acquisition, demolition and removal of blighted properties.

HB 1841 authorizes Mississippi to issue state general obligation bonds to provide funds for the City of Jackson to acquire, remove, and demolish blighted properties in Hinds County. The bonds, backed by Mississippi's full financial commitment, would be sold through the State Bond Commission, with proceeds deposited into a special fund exclusively for Jackson's blight remediation costs. This bill directly affects the City of Jackson by providing financial assistance for urban renewal efforts targeting deteriorated properties, while the state taxpayer bears ultimate responsibility for bond repayment if city funds are insufficient. The legislation specifies no new taxes or fees, relying solely on state bond issuance to support local property cleanup.
