#ILovePalmSprings: Community united after terror attack
PALM SPRINGS, Calif. (KESQ) — After Saturday’s bombing at a Palm Springs IVF clinic left dozens of buildings damaged, residents and business owners are shaken — but already looking ahead to recovery.
City leaders are assuring the community that Palm Springs is safe and will rebuild. Local businesses have begun repairing broken windows and clearing debris, while city crews continue to assess the damage.
“Our fire department, engineering, and a crew are walking down both Indian and Palm Canyon assessing each physical structure, taking consensus of the damage and then coming up with the list of what needs to be done,” Mayor Ron deHarte said. “We are finding out what type of support is available for not only our business owners, but the residents who sustained damage.”
As part of the recovery effort, residents are encouraged to share their support for the city on social media using the hashtag #ILovePalmSprings.
The campaign is aimed at showing resilience, promoting unity, and supporting local businesses ahead of the summer slowdown.
