Another Thought - Newton Received A1 Bond Rating

I was so thrilled to be able to listen to the teleconference with the bonding analyst from Moody's.  Newton has received an A1 bond rating which is the best a city of its size can get.  A person in the next seat to me during the flight back to Phoenix for the Capstone made the mistake of asking me about my internship in Newton.  This led into a dissertation ending with how thrilled I was about being present when Lunda presented our community and its management in such a positive, but realistic, manner.  She actually yawned...guess city finances aren't interesting to everyone.
