County Board Chairman Mark Nordigian and I are pleased to announce that S&P Global has again affirmed Kenosha County’s AAA bond rating for the sixth consecutive year.
This rating reflects the County’s continued commitment to responsible financial management, long-term planning, and sound budgeting practices. It demonstrates to our residents, businesses, and investors that Kenosha County remains in a strong financial position while continuing to provide high-quality services.
Supervisor David Geertsen, the Finance and Administration Committee Chairman. noted it also signals to the world that Kenosha County is a sound and stable place to work and raise our families.
Holding the AAA rating also results in significant savings in interest costs for the county — we’ve saved roughly $1 million over the last five years, and that total will grow further when new bonds are issued later this month.
This achievement is the result of a team effort between our Administration staff and the County Board. Both of us thank the board for its continued dedication to maintaining the fiscal discipline that has earned our continued AAA recognition!
