After hearing a presentation on AirMedCare Network membership options, Pecos City Council voted on Dec. 18 not to approve a proposed city expenditure (resolution 25‑12‑06R) to buy expanded AirMedCare membership coverage for city employees.

An ESD representative explained the county-level membership purchased by the ESD covers residents who live or work in the county, including many Reeves-area bases, and the city already participates in the ESD arrangement at a partial cost. The vendor described additional benefits of a national or "fly-you-home" upgrade and a household extension available for employees, but council members expressed concern about imposing the $55,000 cost on taxpayers when overlapping coverage from the ESD was already in place.

Council discussed alternatives such as payroll-deduction plans for employees who wanted upgraded coverage at discounted rates and requested the vendor return in January with updated pricing and options. The motion to deny the resolution carried.
