Indigent fund seeks renewal in Taos County vote
A 16 year old indigency tax referendum in Taos County faces a close vote to renew a one quarter of one percent levy supporting Holy Cross Hospital indigent care. Since 1972 the fund has paid over 1.3 million dollars, with 94 percent of taxes funding Taos Hospital. The measure mirrors past controversy and public attention remains limited.

Kit Carson says it can decide 115 kv line route
Kit Carson attorney Jack McCarthy argued the cooperative cannot dictate the 345 kv line route and may steer the 115 kv feeder from Taos to Questa for its customers. He warned COEC opponents and Plains Electric would push costs onto Kit Carson customers if the west Gorge route is chosen, with potential annual deficits.
