Direct Cremation Casket No Viewing No Embalming Kissimmee should purchase piece of Stanton power plant, report says By Mike Thomas OF THE SENTINEL STAFF KISSIMMEE- The city should buy 20 megawatts of generating capacity in Orlando's Curtis H. Stanton coal-fired power plant to keep long-term energy costs down, a recently released consultant's report recommends. City Manager O. Sam Ackley supports the recommendation and says the city should sell bonds by April to finance the $20 million purchase from the Orlando Utilities Commission. But he will have to convince a skeptical city commission, which turned down a 10 megawatt purchase in Stanton in November.

The commission will hold a workshop on the question at 6 p.m. Monday at Kissimmee City Hall. By selling bonds quickly, Ackley said the commission would avoid a "panic situation" that could hit the bond market when the revenue-cutting Proposition 1 appears on the November ballot. The threat of the proposed amendment could send Florida cities scrambling for bonds, which could drive up interest rates, Ackley said. long-term needs.
