Palm Beach County officials say they will not use local funds to fully complete the renaming of Palm Beach International Airport after President Donald Trump, arguing that Florida should cover the entire cost of a change the state mandated.
The airport officially became President Donald J. Trump International Airport on July 9 under a state law signed by Gov. Ron DeSantis. But while the Legislature approved $2.75 million for the rebranding, county officials estimate the total cost at about $5.5 million, leaving a roughly $2.75 million shortfall.
