Taos County Faces Ambulance Funding Decision Tomorrow
Taos County Commission will decide whether to fund a newly formed Taos County Association of Paramedics to run the ambulance or support the existing two-person corporation that currently owns the vehicle. The new group has medical community backing and aims to relieve cash flow issues and ensure patient care, while the old group seeks county backing to keep the $48,000 ambulance. Citizens are urged to voice opinions at Friday's meeting or via mail to the Taos County Commission.
