Central Florida Tourism Oversight District Replaces Walt Disney World Annual Pass Benefit with Employee Stipend

The Central Florida Tourism Oversight District (CFTOD) Board of Supervisors has approved a new benefits stipend policy for its employees and retirees, replacing the previous Walt Disney World Annual Pass benefit. Instead of receiving an annual pass, employees and retirees will receive a $3,000 stipend that can be used to purchase an annual pass if desired. The stipend will be issued annually, subject to tax withholdings and budget appropriations. The decision to replace the annual pass benefit was made due to concerns of inequity and potential legal issues.
