NS Receives Positive Bond Rating From Moody's
After weathering tumultuous financial times, Administrator Paulette Hamilton is proud to announce that The Town of North Smithfield just received the latest positive credit opinion from Moody's Investor Service. Moody's has assigned Aa2 Bond rating to North Smithfield's bonds. The Aa2 rating reflects the town's stable financial position, above average income levels, and elevated but manageable debt levels. The rating also factors in the town's residential tax base that is smaller than typical for the rating category.
