Trump Organisation paid for Gold Coast mayor's Florida visit
Published 4 weeks ago
Description
Gold Coast Mayor Tom Tate's February visit to Mar-a-Lago in Florida was funded by the Trump Organisation, including accommodation, meals featuring an expensive tomahawk steak, and airport transfers. Council documents confirm the expenses exceeded $500, refuting earlier criticism that ratepayers' money was used. The visit was to witness a deal between Eric Trump and a Gold Coast developer for a proposed 91-storey, $1 billion tower in Surfers Paradise, expected to go through council approval this year.
