The scaffolding isn’t the trigger. You could do an entire project with lifts and still have to file the notice.
No, it’s not just because it’s commercial. Most residential work isn’t going to hit the project valuation requirements.
If it's triggered by $5,000 than a lot more residential painting projects will hit that in 2025 than did in 2019. I am in the process of painting a fence and paid $63 per gallon for paint doing the labor myself.
Do we have an idea as to when the Animation Courtyard replacement project will be announced? Is there active development on the project?
I'd guess Destination D 2027 (saving myself)
That soon?
I wouldn’t bet on anything like that until 2028 at the earliest.
No way that happens THAT early with this many open ended projects. Destination D is usually more about updates on existing projects. At most we get a sly reference saying "we hear your very real demands for something new in Animation Courtyard and we are currently in the middle of imagineering different experiences to bring to our WDW guests in the near future" and that's it.
I think this makes a lot of sense. Monsters will either be open or nearing its opening, and Tropical Americas will be wrapping up too.
