China Select Board to send letter to Delta Ambulance over reduced service after license change
Summary
The Select Board voted to send Delta Ambulance a letter stating the town is unhappy with Delta's change to an EMT license that the board says results in less service for higher cost; Town Manager Rebecca Hapgood will draft the letter for board review.
The China Select Board voted Oct. 6, 2025, to send Delta Ambulance a letter expressing dissatisfaction with the company’s change of license to EMT, which the board described in its motion as yielding “less service for more money.”
The motion to send a letter was made by Select Board member Jeanne Marquis and seconded by Blane Casey; the motion passed 5-0. Town Manager Rebecca Hapgood was directed to draft the letter and to forward it to board member Thomas Rumpf for proofing and approval before sending.
The minutes record the board’s displeasure in broad terms but do not include any Delta Ambulance response, a detailed description of service changes, contract language, or a timetable for when the town expects a response. The board did not record a request to pursue formal contract remedies or to open a procurement process in the minutes.
The board covered the Delta item as part of new business; no public comment on the item was recorded in the minutes.
