    S&P Global Ratings assigned an 'AA' long-term rating with stable outlook to Lexington-Fayette Urban County Government's $44.5 million series 2022B general obligation bonds, which will finance various capital expenditures and a land conservation program. The bonds are secured by the government's full-faith-and-credit pledge and ad valorem property taxes, subject to Kentucky's constitutional and statutory limitations including a 4% annual growth cap on aggregate property tax revenue. While the county's economic base is recovering from COVID-19 and fiscal 2022 ended with a surplus, long-term challenges remain including rising personnel expenses and pension contribution costs.

Oakland had only $1.7 billion in assets available to pay $4 billion in bills, creating a $2.3 billion shortfall driven primarily by unfunded retirement obligations: $1.9 billion in unfunded pension benefits and $927.8 million in unfunded retiree health care benefits out of $6.5 billion in total promised retirement benefits. The city ranked 67th out of 75 cities in financial health and lacked sufficient reserves to weather pandemic-related revenue losses, with overall debt expected to increase as a result of the crisis.
