Trump to pay back Orange County

Last updated on Thursday, December 15, 2005

FRENCH LICK—How often have you heard Donald Trump heralded as a Billionaire. He still owes money here in Indiana.

Orange County officials say Donald Trump's gaming organization has agreed to a financial settlement for expenses incurred from the time Trump was chosen to operate the new Orange County casino to the time Trump pulled out of the deal.

The Trump organization has reportedly agreed to pay a total of 273-thousand dollars. The money will go to the Blue Sky Casino organization now developing the casino, for partial reimbursement for its expenses. The rest will go to the local Historic Hotel Preservation Commission and its attorneys.
