Me too! I couldn’t believe Disney would give I. That easily to Florida and DeSantis “stealing” Disney.

They have always paid property taxes.

Disney paid for everything within their limits. This includes maintaining roads just as one example. DeSantis doing this added MILLIONS of costs that Disney used to cover to the surrounding tax payers. It is far more expensive for them to have the original agreement. Disney being powerful is it’s own argument but when it comes to cost this is a terrible move from the Florida government for the tax payers.

Litigation isn’t free.

SeaWorld? Busch Gardens? Other local or county governments? The “Central Florida Tourism Oversight District” was ONLY created by Governor DeSantis after he became angry with the long-standing Reedy Creek District. His actions appear to be like those of a child throwing a temper tantrum when he cannot “get his way” otherwise. SUCH BEHAVIOR IS MOST CERTANLY UNBECOMING TO THE OFFICE OF GOVERNOR. It endangers Park Visitors who suffer an emergency condition and must pray that the much much further emergency responders of more distant locations will NOT have delays caused by “rush hour traffic” etc! It also hurts existing Reedy Creek staff and their families by loss of jobs. This list most certainly could be expanded of the potential bad side-effects of DeSantis “pay back” actions!

Looks like DeSantis was schooled by a mouse.

Basically nothing changed. I hate Disney now
