(Continued lack of water).
Continued . . . is the key word here.
Eventually some of these state govt agencies are going to start relocating to the suburbs
It's all because of climate change.
What happened to the Capitol improvement distrct? The state was magically going to fix the infrastructure in the downtown core. Sounded good. I don’t think they can actually fix it any more than the municipal leaders. Just look at our state roads and bridges.

LOL no they won't.

In case you forgot DOR resides in Clinton. Would I expect them to move all at once? No, but I can see a day in the not too distant future where they move.
I'll mention something else. In 2018 there was talk about Trustmark moving out of Jackson. They did the math thougb and it would have been an order of magnitude more to relocate than renovate the building.
It's funny how MSDH (which does well testing and runs the Public Water Supply program) is on Jackson water, even though right across the street, UMMC has its own water system...
MS Dept. of Rehabilitation Services HQ is in Madison.
The MSDH Ofc of Vital Records moved to Ridgeland a few years ago.

Yeah, the DOR moved to the World Com building after staying in that shack for almost 20 years. I also forgot the state is obsessed with paying their buddies millions in private leases. Still, it's going no where.
Phil Gunn turned down the Landmark Building @ $7 million, so he could buy the WorldCom bldg. for $42 million.
Greed and graft at work.
@12:49 AM... If what you say is true, and I don't really doubt it, those two buildings would not be apples to apples in comparison. The Landmark needs so many things to make it even safe to renovate, that it may not have been far off to say the WorldCom building at $42 million was a better deal. Since it wasn't in Jackson just made it more appealing...
MEMA has a fine HQ in Pearl.
Everybody’s leaving. Waiting for the governor’s mansion to be moved out by the mall in Niknar complete with it’s own private road in and out (connected to Tatur’s gated subdivision of course).
