Overview
- Photographs show large “RC” letters removed from the fire station so the building now reads “FD,” a decorative fire hat seal painted over, and an outside sign updated with the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District logo.
- The updates are cosmetic changes to signage and emblems and do not indicate any reported change to how emergency services are run at Walt Disney World.
- Florida renamed the Reedy Creek Improvement District to the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District in February 2023 and required entities inside the district to adopt the new name.
- Reporting from on-site outlets described these alterations as among the last visible remnants of the Reedy Creek name to be changed after several years of gradual compliance.
- The district continues under state-appointed oversight and the public should watch for further branding updates or any formal notices that would signal changes beyond signage and paperwork.
