That's fair, and I actually meant to make mention of that, how Disney's safety codes and whatnot tend to actually be much better than the rest of Florida's.
How would the tax collector not know that they don’t charge Disney certain taxes?
Yeah…it gets bizzaro/weird along Buena vista drive…as you head west properties alternate between orange and Osceola…reedy cleans that up to a certain degree.
There are other benefits to the RCID besides a merely cash savings, such as a very cooperative local government that doesn't do the crazy stuff that Anaheim had been doing to DL. (And as mentioned above, amenable doesn't mean a lack of strict oversight.)
Reedy creek is not about avoiding a tax bill. It was designed so they could nearly 100% control their master plan. People don’t even realize how complicated the water management system is and that is streamlined to only really have to deal with the SFWMD. I don’t want state or county agencies getting in there…
Numerous rates could be raised, though it is uncertain until we have any sort of idea of who is gonna take what. I'm hopeful, though unsure, that there has been some planning done in the case that this would happen. The debt is likely gonna try to get passed around like a hot potato. That would be a large amount of debt to add to any counties books. Though my guess is that a solution to this issues is that the taxes can fall now on the 2 cities which make up RCID (which essentially outsource everything now to the RCID) instead of necessarily going to the counties. Still, that is a difficult transition and a lot of legalese will have to be worked out. But for example, utilities aren't going to be a huge deal. Disney fully owns the energy company that manages the energy for the entire district, Reedy Creek Energy Services. That won't be going away regardless of what happens, though they'll have to "negotiate" new contracts.
That’s not political speech. It doesn’t state support for an ideal, group, or agenda.
Zero.
I've been at Disney during gay days - I saw plenty of funny shirts, but nothing sexually explicit, and nothing even close to as questionable as some drinking around the world T shirts you see at Epcot.
I wasn’t referring to any specific phrase. Just correcting another poster that political messages are not prohibited.
There absolutely are legitimate questions to ask about the District. I would recommend anyone who is genuinely interested in how the District has benefited Disney read Married to the Mouse by Richard Foglesong. I found it very telling that an article posted yesterday gave the impression that even he is leery of what is happening.
Even if the opposing party were to dig up any dirt on the current one in power, it is an uphill battle at times if the people are supporting the current one .
Yes, everything is public, everything has to be written down on paper, you will get sued, and you will lose if it's not done or your laws/ordinances/codes are not written or administered correctly.
Oh here I agree. It should be closely looked at all the time. Not inappropriate.
Take a bus to Contemporary, hop on the monorail is an option.
