The bonds used to build the Ralston Arena have been downgraded by a ratings firm.
Standard and Poor’s lowered the arena's bond rating from "A plus" to B-B.
In part due to the arena's failure to turn a profit.
Credit analysts say the arena's financial woes are putting pressure on the city's finances and taxing flexibility.
However, Arena general manager Stan Benis says last year for the first time, the arena turned a profit on the operations side.
