Taos County Board of Commissioners regular meeting, October 6, 2026. Commissioners approved two sole-source central-dispatch procurements: a Priority Dispatch software subscription, with the transcript indicating approximately $31,274.90 for year one and $8,528.60 annually for years two through four, and a five-year Mark43 SaaS/CAD-viewer interface agreement totaling $187,830.15, exclusive of New Mexico gross receipts tax. The Mark43 item also included approximately $40,000 in professional services for installation and integration. Staff described the dispatch tools as supporting call handling, incident documentation, and officer-location monitoring; the Priority Dispatch sole-source posting received no protests. The board also approved contracts TCC 2026-38 and TCC 2026-39 with Paradise Power Company for EV charging stations at county community and senior centers in Questa and Piasco, using state price agreements and grant funding. It approved a 4.9% CPI-related adjustment to Waste Management of New Mexico’s residential and commercial collection fees under its nonexclusive franchise agreement.

The board adopted the 2026 County Emergency Operations Plan and approved reclassifying a senior-program administrative assistant position as a SAMS agent, with a pay-grade increase. Presentations covered Taos Community Health’s prevention and wellness programs and the county’s Cultural Treasures Project, including its potential relevance to future development policy. The board also changed its November meeting schedule, approved the consent agenda, and held an executive session on pending litigation; no procurement action was identified in that session.
