Bonds; authorize issuance to assist Alcorn County with construction of the Fire Department Southwest Station No. 2.
HB 1878 authorizes Mississippi to issue state bonds to help Alcorn County cover costs for building a new Fire Department Southwest Station No. 2 and helipad. The bill creates a special fund to disburse bond proceeds exclusively for this specific fire station construction project. State bonds issued under this bill would be general obligations of Mississippi, backed by the state's full credit, with repayment guaranteed from state funds if needed. This is a funding mechanism, not a policy change, directly supporting Alcorn County's local fire infrastructure.
