If they do what has been rumored then it could be final-ish. The basic rumored planned has just been to spin RCID into a state government run district instead of a district that Disney has control of.Whatever happens I doubt it’ll be final.

If that's the final solution, it's actually a good thing (no company should have their own government on their land), but they're doing it for all the wrong reasons.
While I'm not down there or informed about all the news, my guess for a while was that they would keep the same format but with government-appointed directors. It's kind of the "don't fix it if it isn't broke" while also completing the power play. My guess is that the suit to prevent will occur soon (probably April) after the special committee has been set up. Neither side is going to come out of this with a "win".
The slimiest part of this is the part that says “no person who has worked with/for a theme park or entertainment complex "within the past 3 years" can serve on the board”.Funny, part of their argument was that RCID was to unique and powerful, but this seems to increase its government power and make it even more unique. It'd be the only special district with this form of governance.

To me that screams only lobbyists are welcomed on the CFTOD Board. Currently Disney is obviously controlling the RCID Board in much the same manner which isn’t good either (only handpicked people by Disney got on the board), but now it feels like things have swung too much the other way.
This is what I was talking about, not Disney lobbying.I truly expect at least one or two "influencers" to max out donations to the Governor in an attempt to get a seat on the board, as well. Can you imagine the engagement???
Desantis is a huge fan of B&M GigasNow it’s a FL Governor appointed Board, meaning only people who have interests that align with the Governors will be appointed.
Disney isn’t fighting it because they’re probably celebrating behind the scenes that they got rid of RCID. As much power as it gave them, it was also a burden.There is a reason Disney isn't fighting this....as much as people are saying oh its good....get ready for the surprise shocker.
Probably they found a way to financially profit from this.Disney isn’t fighting it because they’re probably high-giving each other behind the scenes that they got rid of RCID. As much power as it gave them, it was also a burden.
One of the new board members is the wife of a Proud Boy. Crazy stuff.The slimiest part of this is the part that says “no person who has worked with/for a theme park or entertainment complex "within the past 3 years" can serve on the board”.

The whole thing just has a gross feeling about it from both sides.
