ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — For the first time in more than a year, the monthly board meeting of Walt Disney World’s governing district on Wednesday was back to being what many municipal government forums often are — boring.
There were no rants against Disney by the board’s chairman nor demands by local opponents for board members appointed by Gov. Ron DeSantis to resign immediately. Instead, board members approved contracts for the installation of pipelines for chilled water, sediment removal, the replacement of a wastewater lift pump and the removal of compost waste.
What made this meeting different from most during the past year or so was that it came a month after Disney and DeSantis’ board appointees reached a deal to end their state court lawsuits over DeSantis’ takeover of the district. The district provides municipal services such as firefighting, planning and mosquito control, among other things, for the theme park resort.
