In an effort to minimize the ongoing spread of COVID-19, the City of Palm Springs has closed the parking lots at all City parks in accordance with Riverside County’s Emergency Order.

The County Order says that only people within walking distance may utilize parks and trails.

“Considering that Riverside County expects a surge of new COVID-19 patients this month, the health and safety of our residents is our top priority,” said City Manager David H. Ready. “Residents should continue to shelter in place at this time except for essential purposes.”
