Ocean Springs sets new proposed map for Urban Renewal plan
SUMMARY: This afternoon, the city board updated the Ocean Springs Urban Renewal Plan. They have narrowed down the areas to focus on a city-owned public work site and privately-owned empty lot. The map will be displayed at City Hall and their website for public viewing. Property owners will no longer be included in the plan, and the board will vote on whether to accept the revised map and adopt a resolution to accept the plan on December 5th.
The Ocean Springs Board of Aldermen held an executive session to discuss the newest version of the Urban Renewal plan.
SUMMARY: Following Mississippi’s recent election, there is growing interest in expanding early voting options. Currently, Mississippi is one of only three states that require an excuse for absentee voting. Many voters support early voting, citing convenience for busy schedules and medical conditions. State Senator Jeremy England, who introduced early voting legislation last year, aims to bring it up again. His bill would allow in-person early voting with a valid photo ID, ensuring a secure process and timely results. While absentee ballots are still being counted, early voting could streamline the process and provide quicker election results.
Mississippi is one of only three states that doesn’t allow early voting. State Senator Jeremy England is pushing to bring early voting to the state.
