The Independent Auditor's Report affirms that we are in good financial condition and have retained our 1 AAA Bond Rating from Moody's Investor's IService. This is the highest rating granted to local governments for municipal bonds. During the summer we conducted a residents' survey in the unincorporated area and the Town received an 80% approval rating for delivery of the current programs and services. While the Town Council sets the policies and goals for our government, the employees help to accomplish them. We thank them for their professionalism and dedication in delivering such a high level of service to our residents. We also thank our volunteer Boards and Commissions for their generosity in sharing their talents for the benefit of our Town.
