I assume that's in box 20 of your W-2. There should also be $ amounts in boxes 18 &19. Box 19 is the amount of withholding for the Lexington-Fayette Urban County  occupational license fee. There is no city form to file. They get their $ thru payroll withholding.

The Lexington-Fayette Urban County Government Charter provides that the 2.25 percent occupational license fee applies to all individuals, employers and businesses in Fayette County. The rate is:

    (1) 2.25 percent of each individual’s gross wages, salaries, commissions and other compensation (including deferred compensation and employee contributions to Cafeteria Plans under Section 125 of the IRC) paid to employees earned within Fayette County.
