<br />In December 2011, the City issued $11.0 million of General Obligation Refunding Bonds. The bonds were sold at a
<br />premium of $489,606. The proceeds of the bonds were used to refund the 2002 Fire Projects bonds ($5.4 million),
<br />2008 Parks and Open Spaces bonds ($4.4 million), and $1.4 million of the GO Revolving Credit Facility. This refunding
<br />in addition to scheduled debt payments resulted in a $5.3 million decrease in bonded debt during the current year.
<br />Moody’s Investors Service rates the City’s public bond issues. The City’s most recent ratings from Moody’s are as
<br />follows:
<br /> Aa1 for general obligation bonds (November 2011) with the following exceptions:
<br /> The General Obligation Refunding Bonds, Series 2006 are insured by Ambac Assurance and were rated Aaa
<br />at issuance. Subsequent to issuance, Ambac Assurance was downgraded by Moody’s Investors Service to
<br />Caa2. In April 2001, Ambac Assurance severed their relationship with Moody’s requesting that Ambac ratings
<br />be withdrawn. Moody’s ratings on securities insured by Ambac will be maintained at the published underlying
<br />rating, or Aa1.
