Yes. In the U.S. compulsory purchase order is referred to as eminent domain.

Is there something coming other than the already released rider to a bill?
The CFTOD Board meeting at 9:30 is a possible reference?

The board is having a big meeting at 9:30am ET. During the meeting the board’s legal team will make several presentations regarding the contracts. Basically laying them out and the “legal infirmities” in the contracts as they see them.
They will then move to consider 2 resolutions one of which will terminate the planning board of the district and replace the planning board with themselves.

The agenda has them dissolving the planning board before the public hearing on the resolution, which is definitely a move.
Wonder if Disney will send someone be it in-house counsel, an intern, or someone else to just attend and watch/take notes. They have attended Orange County-Universal meetings before.
I’ll be there and will be speaking. I live in Celebration and people are starting to become concerned as our town is surrounded by the RCID. With them abolishing the planning board and the governor floating ideas of building a prison and told roads, residents are worried we will also start to get tangled up in this mess.

This too shall pass. It’s all been very interesting, thanks especially to all here who’ve contributed skills, time and good faith. I can’t help but think it’s really just a time game for WDW and ’the district’. They hold the fort down long enough until better winds blow.
Will Reedy Creek get yet another name down the road? CFTOD doesn’t sound good, the acronymn or the 13 syllable full name. Don’t like how CFTOD looks either - Come Take Out Disney? This name isn’t seriously going to last the decade I hope.
Does it ever go back to RCID at some point
even with some changes but the name returns? Then in 2031 someone‘s off topic reply is, “Remember that time Reedy Creek wasn’t Reedy Creek?”

100% chance someone from Disney Legal will be there. I wouldn’t be surprised if John McGowan, Chief Counsel for WDW, is there. He’s the one that signed the contracts on Disney’s behalf.

The name is not going to stick. Everyone is still going to call it the Reedy Creek Improvement District.This too shall pass.

I wouldn’t worry about it, despite all the grandstanding I suspect very little will change in the parks regardless of who “wins” this feud, the parks are already neutral so there’s nothing to change.
DeSantis has made some wild claims about Disney pushing an agenda but those claims don’t represent reality, I can’t think of anything that would fall under an “agenda” in the parks, maybe gay days but since those are not sanctioned events Disney couldn’t stop them even if they tried. (Which they won’t).
Even in the worst case scenario where they make life difficult for the parks to try to force changes in movies, shows, etc that likely won’t result in anything noticeable, it’ll be behind the scenes things that create procedural headaches for Disney but likely wont be noticeable to us guests “on stage”.
From what I hear, Josh, a union VP, and a rep from TWDC will be there among others.
