Bonds; authorize issuance to assist with repair and renovation of the Rosenwald School in Marshall County.
HB 602 authorizes Mississippi to issue state bonds to fund repairs, renovation, and restoration of the historic Rosenwald School in Marshall County. The bill directs bond proceeds exclusively to cover costs associated with this specific project, with no broader policy changes. It outlines standard bond issuance procedures (e.g., interest rates, maturity, payment from state funds) but does not alter existing laws or create new regulations. The bill directly affects Marshall County residents and the preservation of this historic school, which served Black students during segregation.
