RINDGE, N,H. — The Jaffrey-Rindge Memorial Ambulance announced on Facebook Thursday afternoon it had reached an agreement with the town of Rindge to continue service there. Information about the terms of this agreement was not available by Friday afternoon.
The JRMA post Thursday said the two parties have “mutually agreed to continue their longstanding relationship, ensuring the continuation of ambulance services to the community for the foreseeable future,” adding that “additional information regarding the continued partnership will be shared as appropriate.”

In a Jan. 20 letter, the ambulance said it would end service to Rindge in late February if it didn’t receive $27,000 it said it was owed and didn’t have an agreement for the town’s contribution to operating costs for 2026.
The selectboard maintained Rindge did not owe JRMA money, and sought alternative offers from other ambulance services.
At a selectboard meeting Wednesday evening at the Rindge Town Offices, residents said they were frustrated with a lack of information about the dispute. Many urged the selectboard to resolve things with JRMA.
Rindge Town Administrator Max Vandervliet, JRMA Chief Adam Langlois and selectboard Chair Bob Hamilton were not reachable Friday morning for comment.
