City of Hopkins AA+ Bond Rating Reaffirmed

Standard & Poor’s (S&P) Financial Services LLC reaffirmed the City of Hopkins’ AA+ bond rating, citing the city’s very strong economy, very strong management, very strong budgetary flexibility and very strong liquidity.  This rating will be used to issue $8.425 million bonds on March 16. The bond proceeds will be used to finance street improvements, utility improvements and mill and overlay projects in the City. More information and further details regarding the rating report are available here.

Emergency Rental Assistance Applications Now Available

Applications are now being accepted for emergency housing assistance through Hennepin County. Hopkins households with unpaid rent and low incomes may qualify for help paying for rent and utility bills.
