Same formality as completing the new agreement. They clearly think everyone will work in good faith and get an acceptable resolution. One where not having representation in the CFTOD board is ok.

Disney never wanted to be in that fight. They didn't fight the change to CFTOD on day one, just went with some mitigation measures. Disney isn't out to fight any larger philosophic battle. They are clearly perfectly happy to have some mitigation in place and then accept the loss of...

The settlement agreement also included negotiating a new developer agreement. Presumably one that Disney will be happy with and that hasn't been declared invalid by the legislature. Disney might not have been happy with the change to CFTOD, but they were willing to accept it with the developer...

That’s not an invitation to talk settlement. He declared victory and told Disney to just move on with the new structure in place. I have no idea how you can interpret this as an invitation to talking about any compromise. The statement you posted is exactly what I said, thanks for finding it...

I believe he said Disney should move on, not come to the table. Not settlement talk, just declaration of victory and the other side should give up. The words move on and settlement are nothing alike.

Remember this timing. Disney didn’t sue in federal court until the development agreement was challenged. They were prepared to work under the new structure with some guardrails. Presumably Disney thinks this new plan will give them guardrails they can work under. Many of us were surprised at...

With a board of 5, what use would having 2 members be? They wouldn't be different people trying to achieve similar goals with differences about how to get there and the nuances around larger shared goals. They would be 2 people with one goal and 3 people with a completely different goal. The...

Wasn't there statements in one of the lawsuits from either the governor's office or CFTOD that the governor didn't have any control of CFTOD beyond appointing the board? That there is a recommendation on who the board should hire and "governor’s office on Monday was already calling it a done...

There are millions of ways to influence the outcome of an election unrelated to the literal counting of votes. The person in charge of running the election can definitely impact the result with how it's run. The easiest way is by impacting how easy or hard it is to vote. He should resign or...

Interesting. Not sure how they can settle the federal case. The other two should be simple to settle if that's really a goal.

The collateral damage from the law isn't the other land owners in RCID, it is the other districts besides RCID also impacted by the law. Presumably, those districts had nothing to do with Disney or the governor, yet their structure was impacted just the same. The logic in the ruling was that...

It was a political question, right up until the legislature passed the first law. Then, it became a legal one. As legal interactions go, when they passed the second law, it got much worse. It was the governor and legislature that converted this from a political to a legal interaction. Isn't...

There's definitely a subtle but important difference between "this thing targets X and Y, Z were impacted as collateral damage" and "this thing impacts X, Y, Z, and X is arguing they were targeted". In both cases, X, Y, and Z are all impacted. Certainly groups creating the impact have been...

If they lose, CFTOD will create a drag and extra expenses in the running of WDW at best and use that power to influence Disney content in other ways at worst. Both of which will be detrimental to the stock. As a share holder, you should want them to win. The current structure and losing are...

You suggested a course of action (work with state), an answer was given (already worked with state to approve plan). The contract in dispute is after that. It has no impact that they already collaborated. CFTOD would like you to forget that happened first and that they have proposed no...

Wait, am I not supposed to believe all the posts that said since this was dismissed outright it's a done thing and impossible to overcome? How is it that there can be an example showing the exact opposite. Has the internet lied to me? 🤯 Next you'll tell me Peter Pan cannot really fly.

Over the last however many years, hasn't there been changes to the highways and county roads surrounding WDW? Things clearly outside of the district and done by groups outside the district. Then, leading into road changes done by the district. Do we think those different entities didn't talk...

I mean you did say "they could collaborate on a longterm development plan for Walt Disney World." along with "They might also want to express their gratitude for Florida and Floridians publicly for having been generous over nearly 60 years in allowing them to operate in their home state with...

I'm not a lawyer, but I've seen one on TV. Doesn't the appeals court just need to determine that one of the conditions the judge used to restrict the case was incorrect and then kick it back down to re-evaluate without that condition. For instance, the appeals court could determine that Disney...

This sounds like requesting that the state of FL take over running Walt Disney World. That's an interesting take, to say.
