After Trump campaign bill goes unpaid, St. Cloud changes policy for charging event fees [View all]

St. Cloud has adopted new rules for recovering the costs of services it provides at special events.

The action was spurred in part by an unpaid bill for security and other services St. Cloud provided for then-presidential candidate Donald Trump's campaign rally last summer.

The city billed the Trump campaign almost $209,000 for police, fire and information technology services and for changing a road construction project during the July 27 rally at St. Cloud State University.

… snip …

Anderson said the city will continue to send invoices to the Trump campaign, but the likelihood of it being paid is “probably low to none.” There’s disagreement between the campaign and the Secret Service over who is responsible for the bill, Anderson said.
