General Fund; FY2027 appropriation to the Town of Star for startup expenses.
This bill appropriates $200,000 from the Mississippi State General Fund to the Town of Star for startup costs associated with its status as a newly incorporated municipality. It directly affects the Town of Star, covering expenses related to establishing its local government operations. The funds are designated for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2026, and ending June 30, 2027, to support the town's transition to municipal status. The appropriation is a one-time payment to cover initial operational costs, not a recurring funding mechanism.
