Related: About this forumDisney outlawyered DeathSantis on the utility district takeover
My family are Disney fans. We have been to Walt Disney World numerous times and my oldest has a time share at WDW. My oldest is taking his siblings and his brother in law to WDW in May. We are headed there in December as a family.
Disney has what is in effect a utility district that maintains the roads and infrastructure for Walt Disney World called Reedy Creek Development. When you are at WDW you see a Reedy Creek Fire Department and police station. When Disney offended DeathSantis on his "don't say gay" law, DeathSantis first had the Florida legis pass a bill to abolish Reedy Creek which would have cause Florida taxpayers assume several billion of bonds and would have been a breach of these bonds.
DeathSantis had the Florida legis rescind that bill and adopt a new bill to let DeathSantis appoint the board of this utility district. Disney had sufficient time to screw DeathSantis' new board

DeSantis picked the wrong company to screw with. It will be interesting to see just how vengeful he will be. They have completely defanged the new board and they smiled whilecthe did it.
I can't believe that DeSantis never thought to see what Disney was up to. I guess he thought he had cowered them and that Disney would be grateful that it wasn't worse.

I'm DYING to see what Carl Hiaasen thinks about this. I bet he could write a rib-splitter about it.
