In January, citing Halton's strong finan- cial position and prudent budgetary prac- tices in its annual review, Moody's also at- tached a "stable outlook" for the Region's financial future, indicating its confidence in Halton's ability to maintain this standing. "Our strong financial posi- tion is an integral part of our ability to invest in Halton's future," said Regional Chair Gary Carr. "Achieving the high- est credit rating possible from Moody's Investors Service, while keeping taxes low, demonstrates that Halton Region's growth is both fiscally re- sponsible and sustainable. Regional Coun- cil is committed to governing for the future as part of our Strategic Action Plan, and this achievement confirms that we continue to move in the right direction with one of the best records in Canada." Achieving a AAA rating ensures Halton Region and the four local municipalities (Halton Hills, Milton, Oakville and Burl- ington) that borrow under this credit rating continue to obtain the best possible capital market financing rates, minimizing the lon- ger term costs of infrastructure capital. Moody's included detailed reasoning for the decision, pointing to Halton's actions in a number of areas including: • Effective multi-year plan- ning and prudent fiscal policy; • Management's conserva- tive debt and investment man- agement policies which limit exposure to market related risks and help ensure smooth debt servicing costs; • The Region's forward-looking operating and capital plans to address pressures and spending requirements; and • The Region's comprehensive, transpar- ent and timely financial reporting.
