The bill’s author, State Rep. Shanda Yates, described the bill as a “great piece of legislation.” She said landlords not paying utility bills when part of a person’s rent is an issue across the Magnolia State.
Legislation to ensure utilities are paid that are included in a person’s rent or lease has cleared its final hurdle in the Mississippi Legislature and is now on its way to the governor’s desk.
The measure seeks to hold landlords criminally responsible for collecting utility fees but not paying the bill.

Easter – Palm Sunday
By Lee Ann Flemming
Easter has always been one of my favorite holidays. After a long cold winter, spring is in the air. Well, sometimes – I remember having snow on the ground one year when I was a child. There we were in our Easter outfits, shivering while we stood in the snow to have our annual holiday photo made.

Bark beetles threaten
ice-damaged timber
By Susan Collins-Smith
MSU Extension Service
RAYMOND, Miss. -- Mississippi State University Extension Service forestry specialists are encouraging timberland owners to keep a watchful eye on their property for signs of bark beetles and disease after January’s ice storm.
Of Mississippi’s five species of bark beetles, the three species of Ips engraver beetles and southern pine beetles, or SPB, raise the most concern. Black turpentine beetles are not as common or as deadly and are of least concern.
