In addition to the rules delineated in the ToS, additional Moderator directions are to be obeyed, as per the ToS.

And rules-lawyering the rules will get one nowhere... A person can banned for any reason the mods/admins see fit, without having to actually explain why.

So, if one wanted to go to the ToS to find out their rights... there ain't none. This is a privately owned forum. The owner can do as they please. The only recourse is to join some other forum that fits one's preferences better, or, start their own forum.

When did we as a society stop following rules? Seems that we question authority at every turn and don't see honor in fulfilling our part of agreements we enter into, kind of rules for thee but not for mee mentality?

I bet Tiana has an answer...... Or Louis

Yeah, a discussion that always seems to escalate into a political p***ing match before the mods shut it down. Let us make a compromise. How about they lock the thread so that no more responses can be posted? Does this work for you?😂
No because it would shut down all the valuable discussion that has occurred and still continues. What works better is if you don't click on the thread if you don't want to see the political ******* match before the mods delete it. Solves the problem, doesn't it? Just pretend that the thread is locked!

Are you suggesting that people take responsibility for what they read themselves and don't feel they can stop reading it unless someone makes it impossible? That would imply that people are intelligent (they are not) or capable of having their own opinions (also not a chance) or truly believe that the world revolves around them personally and they won't stop until everyone admits that they are always right and no other opinion matters.

This packet includes a Public Facilities Report, prepared by District staff, which begins on page 78.

As part of the ratification process whereupon the former Chapter 67-764, Laws of Florida, was ratified and amended by Chapter 2023-5, Laws of Florida, the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District, formerly the Reedy Creek Improvement District, is no longer exempt from completing a public facilities report.

Thanks for posting this. Going through this does seem to answer one of my questions about the district. Given the new new leadership structure would they continue to issue new bonds or solely rely on revenue generated from fees and ad valorem?

Pages 87-88 show some of the projects they will be pursuing mainly with Western Way and World Dr. Looks like they expect to issue new bonds to fund these projects.

Glen Gilzean has been appointed as Orange County's new supervisor of elections.


Two questions I have is:
Must he leave the CFTOD or is he allowed to do both?
My second question got deleted by the moderator, I will try again.
I wonder how this will effect the general election in Florida this year?

So he has to leave his position at CFTOD correct?

Two questions I have is:

I don't know the answer to that. His appointment as Supervisor of Elections lasts until the person who is elected during the November election takes office in January 2025.

Edited to add - here's Glen Gilzean's announcement on Facebook.

"During this transition, rest assured that my commitment remains unwavering. I'll be working closely with the Board of Supervisors to ensure a seamless shift while upholding our standards of excellence. I trust in Paula J. Hoisington's leadership as Acting District Administrator during my unavailability."

A little unclear if he will be permanently gone from CFTOD. The "during my unavailability" seems to suggest he is temporarily stepping aside for the new job.
