HERNANDO, Miss. (AP, abc24.com) - Desoto County officials want to be sure lawmakers know what local needs are before the Legislature convenes in January.
The Commercial Appeal reports that supervisors are working up a wish list ahead of a planned Dec. 5 meeting with local legislators.
County Administrator Michael Garriga says officials are compiling "a comprehensive and concise list" of priorities for lawmakers to hold as a resource next year.
There's the Section 42 housing tax loophole and unfunded mandates which Desoto officials want scrapped. There's also adequate funding for schools and expanded broadband service into underserved areas.
