Taos Hospital Tax Plan Faces Petition Battle

The Holy Cross Hospital board in Taos seeks a .5 percent gross receipts tax increase to fund an $8.5 million, 30 bed facility. Hearings ended Nov. 29 with about 20 attendees. If approved, Taos Questa and Red River would see the tax jump to 6.9375 percent in the county and 6.25 percent countywide. The tax would back bonds totaling about $12.6 million paid over seven to ten years, with leases to Taos Health Systems. A rival petition by Danielle Blackmore’s group supports the tax but with different spending ideas.
