Sandoval County eyes shared services to stretch limited funds
Sandoval County Commission outlines a 1989 90 budget shift with 234104 for ambulance services and a planned 287000 total. The plan expands countywide EMS, funds all emergency departments, adds a county medical director and coordinator, and relies on a Emergency Services Board to coordinate. The message urges shared resources across departments and municipalities, citing Rio Rancho Little League as a successful joint project and advocating public collaboration to meet growing needs. The speaker argues for creative financing and joint powers agreements to leverage state road funds for municipal projects and improve election operations through a county city panel.
