President Trump May Be Coming To Bedminster This Weekend

BEDMINSTER, NJ — President Donald Trump may be visiting his Bedminster golf course this weekend.

The Federal Aviation Administration issued a VIP Temporary Flight Restriction (TFR) on Monday in the area of Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster. This would be his first visit this year back to his golf course.

The restriction would take affect on Friday and continue through Monday, July 1. Specifically the restrictions were placed on Morristown Municipal Airport, Teterboro Airport and Essex County Airport.

Trump's official schedule for this upcoming weekend has not been released yet.

In December, Somerset County and Bedminster were awarded federal funds to cover costs for providing presidential protection whenever Trump flies into town.

The federal funds, secured by Congressman Leonard Lance (NJ-07) and Somerset County Prosecutor Michael Robertson, total nearly $1 million.

The president's visit to Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster in November 2016 cost the Somerset County Prosecutor's Office almost $18,000 for 208 hours of overtime. And more than 100 hours of overtime for the Bedminster Police cost close to $4,000.
