The issuer rating is equivalent to the city&#8217;s hypothetical general obligation unlimited tax (GOULT) rating. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is no debt associated with the issuer rating, said Moody&#8217;s in a press release.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;The outlook is negative,&#8221; said Moody&#8217;s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>[broadstreet zone=&#8221;59983&#8243;]<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Post issuance the city will have $285.8 million in outstanding general obligation debt, said Moody&#8217;s<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;The Aa2 issuer rating reflects the city&#8217;s sizeable tax base with a large and diverse economy, above-average resident income and wealth, slightly elevated debt burden and manageable long-term liabilities. The rating also incorporates a satisfactory financial position that has, however, recently declined due to the use of reserves for the operating budget, a one-time use towards a school project, as well as operating challenges in the utility enterprise fund. The absence of distinction between the GOLT rating and the issuer rating reflects the city&#8217;s ability to override the Proposition 2 1\/2 tax levy cap and its pledge of its full faith and credit,&#8221; said Moody&#8217;s in its press release issued July 11.. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;The negative outlook reflects the recent decline in the financial position due to a greater use of reserves and limited property tax revenue increases that have resulted in a structural operating imbalance. The outlook also incorporates uncertainty around the city&#8217;s large commercial sector that has been impacted by the coronavirus pandemic and the potential for it to limit the city&#8217;s ability to stabilize its financial operations,&#8221; said Moody&#8217;s <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Moody&#8217;s made it clear last year that the outlook would likely change,&nbsp;so unfortunately&nbsp;this is not a surprise,&#8221; said City Council Finance Subcommittee Chair George P. King Jr.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>[broadstreet zone=&#8221;59984&#8243;]<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;The disastrous&nbsp;handling of the water and sewer enterprise fund by the previous administration was the major reason for this.&nbsp; The new administration has inherited a financial mess and this is one more symptom.&nbsp; They have taken great strides during the first six months to turn things around and I am confident they will ultimately do that,&#8221; said at-large City Council King.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moody&#8217;s said the rating could be upgraded if there was material growth in reserves, significant decline in leverage from debt, and strengthening of resident income levels,&#8221; explained Mayor Charlie Sisitsky.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;However, the City&#8217;s rating could be downgraded if there was further decline in general fund reserves beyond fiscal 2021 levels and an inability to structurally balance the operating budget.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"727\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/framinghamsource.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/QRFINALFIESTA-english2022may-727x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-76251\" srcset=\"https:\/\/framinghamsource.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/QRFINALFIESTA-english2022may-727x1024.jpg 727w, https:\/\/framinghamsource.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/QRFINALFIESTA-english2022may-213x300.jpg 213w, https:\/\/framinghamsource.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/QRFINALFIESTA-english2022may-768x1082.jpg 768w, https:\/\/framinghamsource.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/QRFINALFIESTA-english2022may-1091x1536.jpg 1091w, https:\/\/framinghamsource.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/QRFINALFIESTA-english2022may-1454x2048.jpg 1454w, https:\/\/framinghamsource.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/QRFINALFIESTA-english2022may-scaled.jpg 1818w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 727px) 100vw, 727px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[broadstreet zone=&#8221;53130&#8243;] FRAMINGHAM &#8211; Moody&#8217;s Investors Service has assigned a Aa2 rating to the City of Framingham, MA&#8217;s $31.1 million general obligation municipal purpose loan of 2022 Bonds.
