All three New York bond rating houses have renewed Howard County's AAA status, meaning borrowing will be at the lowest long-term interest rates available.

Howard is only one of 15 counties nationally with the coveted rating from Standard and Poor's, Fitch IBCA and Moody's Investors Service.

On Tuesday, the county will offer $25 million in general obligation bonds and $3 million in Metropolitan District bonds for sale to finance government operations and construction projects.
