The Desert Hot Springs City Council met in regular session at the Carl May Center on Tuesday night, February 21, 2012. New police officer Greg Blum was sworn in. He and his wife Melissa are expecting their first child “any minute” now according to her! Among other things he’s done, Greg is a former professional baseball player, including some time with the Minnesota Twins (my team!) WELCOME Greg!
