It comes amid a legal battle between the company and the Florida governor.
Not surprisingly then, the Districts employees believed that it was their job to prioritize the interests of Disney.
For instance, contract offers were sent out only to a closed list of approved bidders.

A Disney spokesperson called the report an exercise in revisionist history.
The district is the source of litigation between the company, Florida Gov.
DeSantis once gleefully mused about putting a prison next to the park.
In April the company sued the governor for impinging on its freedom of speech.
Disney and the new DeSantis appointed oversight board have also traded suits and countersuits.
The state has numerous other special improvement districts.
The question wasnt even about the bill.
It was about does a company have a right to free speech.
And if it exercises its right to free speech, it should not face retribution.
A footnote in the report even gets in a dig at founder Walt Disney.
Can I have one?
The oversight board also is raising alarms over perks that Disney provided to employees of the district.
