    News Reedy Creek Improvement District and the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District

    What are the other options? Providing police services is a government function. One of these is on the hook to provide the service: Tax District Municipality County State Is there another one, some other government entity that has responsibilty? Wasn't it said earlier that the creation of a...

    Looks like the embed is turned off and it lost the time cue when going to youtube. Thanks for cuing it up, not your fault they broke it. Interesting. I hear that as the police force is understaffed for the level of service required. It matters because it's not the same. The Sheriff cannot...

    News Reedy Creek Improvement District and the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District

    I think I asked that earlier, I'm just reading what was reported here and it isn't clear what that $8M refers to. Which gets to this question then: Is CFTOD suggesting that Disney has been using official police capacity for security guard resposbilibties to the tune of $8M a year? There will...

    Is the some amount of official police activity going on at Disney properties that should really be security guard stuff? Presumably there is still official police activity that will need to go on. Disney should not be contracting for that directly. Easy example. Disney decides that you're...

    The example wasn't on Disney Property. That was on purpose. Who reponds to two cars that collide in a Disney parking lot could be very different. OCSO? FHP? (I'm slow here, lost on who each of those is.) The root of the question was, is that reponse because of the district contract for...

    They're related though. The whole thing is a huge social contract that we all agree too, mostly. Something being against the law only matters if someone actually enforces that law. If nobody enforces it, only the social contract of everyone following it volunteerily is left to enforce it...

    If they repond because of the contract and the contract is cannceled, wouldn't that mean they'll no longer repond? My understanding of mutual assistance agreements is that they need to actually be mutual. That someone with a police force isn't going to maintain a mutual assistance agreement...

    Is that who reponsds today then? Why doesn't the county simply repond to all police calls everywhere then? Couldn't they already do that?

    Say you're driving on West on East Buena Vista Dr coming up on the Orange Parking Garge. As you go through the green light, someone leaving the parking garage makes a right on red (looks like you're not supposed to) without looking and they plow into the side of your rental car. Who do you...

    When it's so critical they hold two special sessions and pass multiple laws to deal with it. But, at the same time, so not critical that they want to delay the case by two years.

    You can even put a silver lining on those that if you're paying back fixed rate costs established in 2020 with dollars from 2023 that have less buying power, you're getting a discount. Profits are up too. I would even suggest that profits are up a much larger percentage than wages. Along with...

    Ahh to yearn for when school milk only cost a nickel. Perhaps maybe a dime or a quarter for those of you younger. Also, get off my lawn. (Wasn't a park ticket under $50 at some point too?)

    That wouldn't matter at all to the CFTOD staff, since they don't work for Disney.

    Did I miss it, do we know what's in the policy? I just see that they're adopting a policy. Without knowing what's in it, what's to say it's not written to discourage employees from being a whistle blower about actions the current board is taking? Just because they are proposing a whistle...

    The outcome depends highly on what they're partisan about though. If it's a specific ideology or a team will be very important. This case in particular pits those two concepts against each other in many ways. Which is an impact of the overall GOP platform eroding and moving away from many of...

    Because you're trying to read it as a good faith goal and related to what the district is actually responsible for. That is the incorrect frame of reference. Nothing will make sense in that context, since it is all being backed into to create some type of justification not because it is an...

    Can we just call it all? Is there anyone who owns any property within the district that isn't Disney that owned that property prior to the creation of the district? It's not some gotcha when someone says "but the Army owns some land" since they bought it after the district existed under the...
