Lifetime Achievement Award Given to Palm Springs City Council Despite That Whole FBI Raid Thing

ps city hall

The city of Palm Springs is hilarious and oblivious – as displayed by 2 quotes from the same Desert Sun article.

The first:

Would someone please give the Palm Springs City Council some loving.

Well, the city’s tourism community did just that Tuesday night when the council was showered with praise and the 2015 Hall of Fame Lifetime Achievement award at the 15th annual Best of the Best Golden Palm Awards.

And now for the second quote, from the same story and just 3 paragraphs later:

However, amid an FBI investigation looking into public corruption at city hall that has called to question business relationships among Mayor Steve Pougnet — who was not at the Best of the Best Awards — and local developers; along with questionable land sales approved by the mayor and City Council, council-members have not always found themselves cast in the most appealing light in the last few months.

You never cease to be absolutely ridiculous and completely oblivious city of Palm Springs.

I would like to award you a lifetime achievement award for that.
