The committee approved two new debt authorizations including an aggregate not‑to‑exceed $600 million Kentucky Housing Corporation bond authorization and three SFCC debt issues for school/college projects (Campbell County, Edmonson County, Perry County).

Steve Starkweather described a not‑to‑exceed $600,000,000 authorization for Kentucky Housing Corporation tax‑exempt and taxable single‑family mortgage revenue bonds (aggregate authorization through March 1, 2027). He also reported a $5,500,000 Kentucky Housing multifamily conduit bond for the Bonta Apartments in Lexington, a conduit transaction that will not be a liability of the Commonwealth or KHC.

The committee also considered three State Fiscal Capital Construction (SFCC) debt transactions (Campbell County $74,240,000; Edmonson County $5,165,000; Perry County $30,000,000). Those SFCC items were rolled into a single vote and approved.

Informational items included University of Kentucky refunding bonds and Turnpike Authority refundings that produced present value savings, which were presented for the record.
