• Desert Hot Springs Planning Commission approves 1-million-square-foot warehouse (kesq.com) — Desert Hot Springs’ Planning Commission has unanimously approved the Snider Logistic Center, a proposed 1‑million‑square‑foot warehouse on Calle de los Romos off 19th Avenue, moving it into environmental review despite resident concerns. Neighbors raised worries about truck pollution and traffic, while commissioners added language barring any future use as a data center or ICE facility.
   

• After failed 911 calls, man's death may be linked to California's flawed 911 overhaul (nbcbayarea.com) — A Desert Hot Springs 911 equipment failure delayed emergency response to a local man’s heart attack, raising serious questions about the city’s call system and California’s troubled Next Generation 911 rollout. Records show dispatchers were logged out when calls came in, the department later replaced the vendor’s equipment, and the state has since dropped that contractor while seeking more funding to fix the system.
