					<description><![CDATA[Florida state colleges this year are expected to have their first modest rise in enrollment since 2010.

					<description><![CDATA[Commissioners in a Florida county are so tired of spending money on President Donald Trump&#8216;s frequent visits to his Mar-a-Lago resort that some are suggesting a special tax be levied against the property if the federal government doesn&#8217;t reimburse its costs. Palm Beach County spends more than $60,000 a day when the president visits, mostly for law enforcement overtime &#8212; almost $2 million since January. Sheriff Ric Bradshaw says the county was expected to spend $250,000 during Trump&#8217;s recent meeting&#8230;]]></description>
