Let’s just say, room service and Bowling Night won’t ever be the same.

- Not only are city officials moving toward allowing sales and consumption in hotels, but entertainment facilities such as bowling alleys could be in the mix as well.
- Desert Hot Springs may also revisit its tax rate for growers. Officials are meeting with local weed experts in planning its cannatourism agenda.
