Weather forecast:
1. Palm Springs restaurant shut down temporarily for cockroaches (desertsun.com) — Health inspectors temporarily closed Loco Charlie's Mexican Grill in Palm Springs this week after finding live cockroaches, though the restaurant has since been cleared to reopen with follow-up inspections planned. Several other Coachella Valley eateries, including another Palm Springs location, received B or C grades and will also be revisited by Riverside County health officials.
2. How much is rent in Palm Springs area? See prices by city (desertsun.com) — Rents across the Palm Springs area and wider Coachella Valley climbed again in April, with Rancho Mirage seeing the steepest jump and Indian Wells posting the highest average prices. New Zillow data shows Riverside County rents rising faster than the national average, and The Desert Sun plans to track these local rental trends monthly so residents can watch how costs evolve.
3. Desert X Student Art Exhibit Showcases More Than 100 Local Young Artists (nbcpalmsprings.com) — Local families can see more than 100 students’ artworks at the free Desert X Art Club Student Exhibition in Palm Desert, running through June 7 and tied to institutions like the Palm Springs Art Museum. The after-school program helps Desert Sands Unified students explore diverse art forms and discover accessible cultural resources across the Coachella Valley.
4. School Board Elections Heat Up in the Coachella Valley (nbcpalmsprings.com) — Voters in the Palm Springs Unified School District will see a contested race this November in Trustee Area 4, where incumbent Charlie Irvin faces retired superintendent Tony Signore. With key seats open across all three Coachella Valley school districts, analysts say these school board contests will shape budgets, programs, and policies affecting local students and families.
