Since taking over from Disney's Reedy Creek Improvement District earlier this year, CFTOD has been providing updates using the original rcid.org site.

The new CFTOD is located at www.oversightdistrict.org, with rcid.org now redirecting to the new address.

Much of the content remains the same as before, but the site now has the new CFTOD logo and visual style, including a prominent nighttime view of the Disney Springs parking garages with the tagline "The District Never Sleeps."

No. But it’s the start of the process

Does this mean a new agreement has been reached with Disney? I am trying to read between the lines on just what this is saying.

Yes

Has Disney/CFTOD continued to replace the purple direction signage with the new blue color scheme since CFTOD took over?

You're right. The new document will be different. It will be "different" in the way that Chris Gaines was "different" from Garth Brooks or how the drummer from Nirvana is "different" from the singer of the Foo Fighters.

Both are effectively picked by the Governor, just not technically. Look no further than the communications "strategy" with the replacement of Gilzean of the Governor's office getting out ahead of every single step of the process

The settlement acknowledged the “need” to change the comprehensive plan, which undermines this idea. So too does the lack of an agreement, as the 2032 Comprehensive Plan wasn’t that different than the again in force 2020 Comprehensive Plan.

That's understandable for sure. I just felt inclined to make the distinction due to the ongoing conversation, as the district administrator is selected by the board, while the board is selected by the governor.

The new agreement will be functionally the same as the one Disney was sued over.

You're right. This has been going on so long I just lumped all the antagonists together.

Brian21 days ago

Not to nitpick, but Gilzean was district administrator, not a board member.

pdude8121 days ago

A bigger risk than keeping Garcia and Gilzean on the board as active disruptors? I don't agree with their decision to stall the federal lawsuit, but I understand why they saw the status quo as a risk to growth over the next few years.

You don’t think dropping your bargaining power in the middle is the best strategy in a negotiation?
