SB2403

Mississippi SB2403 would raise fees for sheriffs' services, including processing, bond approval, and tax notice services.

Mississippi SB2403 proposes to amend the Mississippi Code of 1972 to increase various fees charged by sheriffs. The bill raises the processing fee for sheriffs from $45.00 to $55.00, the bond approval fee from $25.00 to $40.00, and the tax notice services fees from $45.00 to $55.00. It also raises the amount spent per day on inmate meals from $15.00 to $20.00 and removes the limitation on municipal housing costs to the state housing rate. The changes are intended to enhance accountability, efficiency, and transparency in sheriffs' operations.
