Commissioners also vote on rural addressing, other items
Chaves County commissioners want the New Mexico Governor’s Office and the state Legislature to delay a rule change affecting how much health insurance will be paid by the state after public employees retire.
The New Mexico Retiree Healthcare Association enacted a new rule last year that the county thinks could prompt a lot of retirements before it takes effect July 1.
The new rule makes two major changes. First, it will require most retirees of public agencies in the state to be at least 55 years old to receive the state subsidy for their health coverage. Second, they will not be able to receive the maximum subsidy until they worked 25 years.
