Desert Hot Springs Council approves fiscal emergency

The Desert Hot Springs City Council has voted 5-0 to declare a fiscal emergency for the 2nd time in less than a year.

The declaration gives the city council some leeway to put measures on the ballot to raise revenue to help the city remain solvent.

This meeting is still continuing late into the night.
