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

[lazyboy97o]

In the end, it's all win for Disney. Board members of the new district won't block any development, and some costs may be transferred over to the state. DeSantis may have won the battle, Disney wins the war.

What prevents the new board from not interfering ? What costs could be transferred to the state?

I imagine most of the (construction) work the improvement district approves is not very woke and interfering with it just to be jerks, clogging up the pipelines, would be a terrible economic look.

It reads to me very much like a definitive concession: "We are focused on the future [i.e., we understand our control over RCID is over] and are ready to work within this new framework". There's no hint of equivocation or open-endedness that I can detect.

They don’t need to hint at any future action

Nothing and none

Get ready for “it”…like forever

Certain segments of fans are gonna try to straddle supporting the nonsensical party politics here…and still think Disney will “outsmart” it and build them new rides and fire work shows because of it…

Watch out for that fence post

The unions are involved in every part of this. The unions pushed Chapek to make a statement. They are in this start to finish. Anytime WDW makes a big release the unions have a 24ish notice so they can do the same. The call if the Unions will make a timed release with this memo is in question. If they don't they are not "in the know". If they do, it appears they agree. That would make them look like they lost. Disney knows what they will release tomorrow. Not so much for the union speak.

Unions certainly had involvement in pushing Disney to act on the parental rights bill. And unions are given notice of actions that will impact their members. Unions are not given insight into pending legal actions.

Just so we’re clear, it would seem you only have a problem when Disney capitulates to wanna-be dictators as opposed to actual dictators

Not sure who was advocating capitulating to China as it relates to this nonsense?

Because it is…one entity looks really stupid here…
I’ll give you a hint: it’s 1 outta 50

 

[peter11435]

Remember how protesters and media have always set up off property along 535…..

Is that what the mid levels in LBV are saying as they try to dig out on the ground?

Because you know the unions have almost zero practical say there.

They were never not going to not say something with this. It just lined up to put them in the crosshairs…from the idea it started in someone’s rear

I screamed for years that chapek was wrong to even be there and they needed to “streamline” him the hell outta there…before he was the staggs replacement…

But I can’t scream at him about this. This reality is the fault/Natural extension of societal stupidity that is a major deal…nothing to do with Disney really.

They do make themselves a ripe target - granted - but their business decisions really aren’t the concern of Tallahassee

That’s really not true. Had there not been an outcry from cast, unions, and some guests, the company was prepared to not make a public statement regarding the parental rights bill. Instead choosing to stay publicly silent while working solely behind the scenes.

 

[Sirwalterraleigh]

Disney has plenty of lobbyists in Tallahassee right now anyway. Just because it looks like they aren't fighting this doesn't mean they aren't.

Once it’s enacted…it’s over

They’d have to move for an injunction or they are - in fact - capitulating.

So where’s this announcement?

I’m sure there is widespread remorse/regret in “the company” for the statement…

…but there is little legitimate conceivable way they weren’t gonna say something based on their workforce.
It just doesn’t scan.

Hindsight is always 20/20…and rarely matches with the past

If slapp-o thought that would skate…he knew little about his “flagship” property…and even less about Hollywood

Someone a few pages back said “the company” was issuing a statement this morning

In hindsight they realize they should have spoken out sooner and differently. In the moment the plan was to skate by without a public statement.

Maybe the new board will finally use those monorail footings at SSR.

Disney's a California Company. Business hours are 9-5 on Weekdays.

It's 5:48AM on a Saturday in California.

You do the math.
