May 2, 2006 | Area residents invited to town hall meeting on proposed power plant Contact : Nancy Southworth Associated Electric Cooperative’s proposed power plant project in Carroll County will be the topic of a town hall meeting hosted by Carrollton Mayor Sharon Metz May 9 in Carrollton. The meeting is open to the public and will begin at 7 p.m. at the T.P. Rupe Community Center, 710 Harvest Hills Road, Carrollton, Mo. Local residents will be able to learn more about AECI, the proposed power plant, the need for the plant and the potential benefits for Carroll County and its residents. AECI employees will be available to provide information about the project and answer questions. AECI plans to build a 660-megawatt, coal-based power plant to meet growing electricity demand among its member-owners: six generation and transmission cooperatives that serve 51 local distribution cooperatives. The proposed plant site is northwest of Norborne, Mo., in Carroll County. The alternate site is in Holt County near Big Lake, Mo.
