OSCEOLA COUNTY, Fla. — Osceola County Fire Rescue is renumbering three existing fire stations as part of a department-wide realignment of its geographic battalion districts aimed at improving operational efficiency as the county continues to grow.
The changes affect stations in the Narcoossee, Pleasant Hill Road and Celebration areas, but fire rescue officials emphasized that the new numbers are administrative only. There will be no change to the stations’ service areas or emergency response coverage.
The station number changes are:
- Station 51 is now Station 61 — 5030 Yukon St., St. Cloud, serving the Narcoossee area.
- Station 64 is now Station 84 — 3385 Pleasant Hill Road, Kissimmee.
- Station 72 is now Station 47 — 595 Celebration Place, Kissimmee, serving the Celebration area.
According to Osceola County Fire Rescue, the renumbering is part of a larger effort to align station numbers with the geographic “battalions” in which the stations are located.
The department said the alignment follows the addition of new fire stations throughout Osceola County over the past several years and is intended to help increase operational efficiencies across the growing fire rescue system.
For residents, however, nothing changes when it comes to which station serves their community or how emergency services are provided.
The former Station 51 in Narcoossee will operate as Station 61, former Station 64 on Pleasant Hill Road will operate as Station 84, and former Station 72 in Celebration will operate as Station 47.
