Highlighted Measure:

Percent of Property tax rates certified by the June 15 deadline

 

DATA SOURCE: Dept. of Management

Updated 8/1/07

GRAPH - State Bond Rating

Why this is important:
Timely certification permits counties and cities to smoothly manage their finances so they can provide services to their residents.


What we're doing about this:
Prior to FY2003, this deadline was often missed. The Department of Management has automated systems so that data from local governments can be more quickly and accurately processed. These improvements have resulted in 100% certification by the deadline in each of the past two years.

Highlighted Measure:

Bond Rating

 

DATA SOURCE: Standard and Poor's, Moodys

Updated 8/1/07

GRAPH - State Bond Rating

Why this is important:
A state's bond rating is the best measure of a state's credit-worthiness. It reflects the faith the financial community places in the state's financial management and its ability to repay state bonds, notes, and other obligations. The better the state's credit rating, the less the state has to pay in interest on loans and other obligations.


What we're doing about this:
Iowa maintains a very low per capita debt burden, it pays its bills on time, maintains a balanced budget under General Accepted Accounting Principles, maintains its rainy day reserve funds, and uses conservative revenue projections. General fund budget growth has been below the national average, and reserve fund balances above the national average for all states.
