Every financial report the City of Desert Hot Springs has published, in one place. All links go to the City’s own documents. DHSed is an independent resource, not an official City website.
Looking for who was paid? See payments and vendors. A budget is a plan, an audit reports what happened, and payments show cash going out, so these figures measure different things and won’t add up to each other.

What isn’t here
- Budgets before FY 2008-09, and audits before FY 2006-07, aren’t on the City’s website.
- The account-level tables above cover General Fund revenue and citywide audited figures. Department spending budgets are in the linked documents.
- Figures in the tables were read from the documents by software and pass format checks, but no person has reviewed them. The City’s document is always the authority.
