Gov. Ron DeSantis' new board controlling aspects of Disney World's land says the company attempted an 11th hour change to rules governing the property.
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis earlier this year gained control over a board that oversees aspects of Disney World.
"An initial review suggests these agreements may have significant legal infirmities that would render the contracts void as a matter of law," Fenske said."We are pleased the new Governor-appointed board retained multiple financial and legal firms to conduct audits and investigate Disney's past behavior."
"I can’t think of a more naked attempt to circumvent the will of the voters and the will of the Florida Legislature and the will of the governor," new board member, Brian Aungst Jr., said.
