How Florida Republicans are trying to punish Walt Disney World and take over its city:
The Florida Senate passed the bill Wednesday in a 23-16 vote, and it’s expected to go to the House swiftly for a vote by Thursday.If the bill passes the House and is signed into law, Reedy Creek and other special districts would be dissolved as of June 1, 2023, though they could re-apply to be recognized as a special district again.
Disney has not yet commented on the legislature’s efforts, but it’s likely the issue will go to court if it passes, as Florida law states special districts created by the legislature can only be dissolved with a majority vote of the district’s landowners.Exactly what impact dissolving Reedy Creek would have, as the rushed pace of Republicans’ legislation means there wasn’t time to thoroughly research the impact.
