I assume he was just at the park as a tourist. If he was doing anything in an official capacity he probably should have been looking at roads and bridges, inspecting sewers, visiting the power stations or visiting the preserved wetlands they want to develop on. The district has little to do with day to day park operations so no reason to visit the theme parks as a board member.In all seriousness, this is probably a good thing.
We know that the reason these people were appointed was for political gamesmanship, but it would be a good thing if any of them decided that they should ACTUALLY do a good job with the responsibility they've been given.
Was telling that they're also mentioning that customers have said they're worried about the friction.Rainforest Cafe/T-Rex/BOATHOUSE at the CFTOB meeting! Let's see what their concern is.
ETA: It seems like they're remining the board that talk of additional taxes, fees, and regulations will impact businesses in the district other than Disney.
Next up are small-business owners from Disney Springs: Splitsville, Homecomin', and Everglazed. Reminding the board that small businesses are impacted by the board. They employ 450 people, according to the speaker, and pay $3M in property and sales taxes.
Right, that's my point.I assume he was just at the park as a tourist. If he was doing anything in an official capacity he probably should have been looking at roads and bridges, inspecting sewers, visiting the power stations or visiting the preserved wetlands they want to develop on. The district has little to do with day to day park operations so no reason to visit the theme parks as a board member.

I think you would be correct.I have a feeling that Ron could are less as long as his vendetta against Disney rages on.
So, they’ve misrepresented that Disney and the District are involved in the process, presenting it as a problem. Now they acknowledge that they are not and want to interject themselves into it, the very thing they considered a problem. Is there no cognitive dissonance with the constant contradictions?wth... they want to be party to the disney lawsuits fighting property assessments?
I guess they think they will benefit from their own taxes based on those assessments..
DeSantis was married at WDW.Right, that's my point.
Someone who enjoys Disney as a guest is less likely to come in with a "burn it to the ground" mindset. I'm not saying he was there for work, but it's good if he LIKES the parks.
"What we see with our eyes, we value with our hearts."

First time watching live - is it normal for parts to be muted?
wth... they want to be party to the disney lawsuits fighting property assessments?

During the public comment section, there were 5 speakers in a row from non-Disney small businesses in Disney Springs and the District saying how bad raising taxes would be for them.This came up at the meeting?
Disney has fought and won the county property assessments from Orange & Osceola before. The difference can be in the millions.wth... they want to be party to the disney lawsuits fighting property assessments?
