Edgewood Keeps County Fire Services

Edgewood voters just saved their fire and EMS services by agreeing to keep Santa Fe County’s team — a win for safety after months of heated debate. Fearing delays and high costs if they went it alone, residents rallied, packed meetings, and pushed officials to act. Now, the town will pay a fee similar to the county’s fire excise tax plus development impact fees — a compromise that keeps emergency response strong and avoids a costly, uncertain future. But some still demand transparency and accountability from leaders, insisting they’re not done fighting for their community’s best interests.
