Isn't that the one that houses some upper level management? At least that is what I heard.

My guess is it's this from wikipedia
A five-member Board of Supervisors governs the District, elected by the landowners of the District. These members, senior employees of The Walt Disney Company, each own undeveloped five-acre (20,235 m²) lots of land within the District, the only land in the District not technically controlled by Disney or used for public road purposes. The only residents of the District, also Disney employees or their immediate family members, live in two small communities, one in each city. In the 2000 census, Bay Lake had 23 residents, all in the community on the north shore of Bay Lake, and Lake Buena Vista had 16 residents, all in the community about a mile north of Downtown Disney. These residents elect the officials of the cities, but since they don't actually own any land, they don't have any power in electing the District Board of Supervisors.


Parties of 33 should consider dividing their parties into two groups of 16 and a half each.

Correct. These two enclaves are populated exclusively by trusted cast members. They all serve on the city councils, and take turns being mayor.

There are just some things a corporation cannot do, and voting is one of them. That said, when your job and your very home are dependent on voting correctly.....

Which is just one of the reasons I have always been fascinated with the way the Florida Project came to be and how the property is run today.

Years back when I was a dispatcher, I was looking at Reedy Creek to work for their 9-1-1 center. I thought that would be my way in but be able to keep my state retirement.
