Now that the fight with DeSantis appointees has ended, Disney set to invest $17B in Florida parks

The Associated Press

ORLANDO, Fla — Months after Disney and Gov. Ron DeSantis’ appointees agreed to end a protracted legal fight, the two sides are set to approve an agreement that could result in the company investing $17 billion into its Florida resort and opens the door to a fifth major theme park at Walt Disney World.

The company also would need to award at least half of its construction projects to companies based in Florida and spend at least $10 million on affordable housing for central Florida. The settlement in March ended almost two years of litigation that was sparked by DeSantis’ takeover of the district from Disney supporters following the company’s opposition to Florida’s so-called “Don’t Say Gay” law.
