October 16, 2026 reconciliation: all 14 linked project records were compared with their map summaries. The latest evidence review and latest original-photo date are shown separately. CVAG’s procurement page, October 5 Addendum No. 3 and construction-update page were checked: the October 15 bid deadline has passed, but no bid result, award or notice to proceed was located in that review. Dream Hotel’s developer page still carries a combined July–October 8 update; its reported October 15 drawing target is now treated as elapsed, with submission and restart unverified. The Living Desert’s October 13 announcement, checked October 16, confirms early work; Cotino and University Park retain their separately dated source checks. Other projects keep their existing evidence dates. This reconciliation does not represent fresh permit searches or field visits for every project.
October 12, 2026 source update: Palm Springs’ official Ramon Road Bridge notice and reporting from the October 5 Active Transportation Subcommittee meeting were reconciled with the CV Link tracker. Engineering staff said the undercrossing must close and be removed during the approximately two-year bridge work; the detour, contract award, construction start and active closure remain unconfirmed.
October 11, 2026 source update: SilverRock’s official golf website lists the City-owned Arnold Palmer course as closing October 12 for overseeding and reopening October 30, with cart-path-only play through November 24. This is recorded as a public-course access and maintenance notice, not construction progress on the adjacent private resort parcel.
October 10, 2026 source update: CVAG’s current procurement page, cable-railing bid documents and October 5 addendum were checked directly. That review recorded an October 15, 1 p.m. bid deadline for approximately 450 feet of cable railing at the Adams Street undercrossing in La Quinta. See the October 16 follow-up above; the deadline has passed. This is recorded as a procurement milestone, not a contract award, notice to proceed or construction start. The documents allow partial-width closures during work hours but prohibit a full CV Link closure.
October 9, 2026 source update: The Living Desert’s official 2027 Zoobilee page says the February 27 gala will move off-site as the zoo makes way for Lion Ridge construction. This is recorded as an operational project signal, not a permit date, exact construction start or opening. Dream Hotel’s developer page was also rechecked after the October 8 meeting date; its combined July–October 8 update still leaves the stairway issue and final pricing unresolved, with no distinct meeting result or construction restart verified.
October 7, 2026 source update: Dream Hotel’s posted developer account and The Living Desert’s current Palm Pavilion description were reconciled with their individual trackers. Photograph dates are unchanged; no new construction start or opening is established by these source checks.
October 6, 2026 maintenance: project totals, status counts, the coverage list and search metadata were synchronized with the project records. This was a consistency correction, not a new verification of permits or construction progress.
This hub was assembled September 10, 2026. On September 27, DSRT SURF’s status was advanced to its operator-announced soft-opening phase after the September 26 launch date passed and the reservation pathway remained live; DOI has not independently field-verified opening-week operations. A separate September 25 field update added original Desert Retreat construction photography. Other projects retain their individual evidence dates. The September 17 review covered Oasis reporting, the then-current DSRT SURF FAQ and booking notice, Dream Hotel developer updates, and The Living Desert completion target. Individual evidence dates remain on each card.
The map is an original DOI illustration for regional orientation, with approximate project positions and simplified roads and terrain. It is not a surveyed boundary map, navigation map or final rail alignment. The rail photograph shows existing freight service. Photo dates, where established, are shown beside each project and in the full-screen gallery. The Living Desert’s September 30 aerial photographs document site work beside the existing zoo; they do not establish that the future habitat or event venue is complete or open.
Dream Hotel source note: the developer update rechecked October 7 carries a “July–October 8, 2026” heading. We treat it as a statement posted by the developer, not as evidence that the October 8 meeting has already occurred. Its account does not establish a construction restart or resolution of the reported default.
Projects, phases and schedules can change. Consult the current City agenda for hearing participation, and use official access information before visiting. This page is updated through reviewed reporting; it is not an automatic permit or construction feed.
September 27 update: DSRT SURF’s map marker, project card, interactive detail data, milestone and visitor FAQ now describe the operator-announced soft-opening phase as underway, with reservations available. DOI has not independently field-verified opening-week operations; additional amenities and the hotel and villa phases remain separate. September 10 photographs and all other project evidence dates are unchanged.
September 25 update: DSRT SURF’s map marker, project card, interactive detail data, milestone and visitor FAQ recorded bookings open and the then-scheduled September 26 phased soft opening.
September 17 update: Oasis status and evidence links refreshed from new local reporting. The tracker identifies the source and remaining verification work; site photos retain their September 9 date.
September 16 update: The Oasis at Indio hearing status was refreshed, with the Council outcome marked unverified. Its evidence date now reflects that check; the original September 9 photo date is unchanged. The linked tracker includes the September economic materials and applicant-funding disclosure.
September 12 update: Dream Hotel Palm Springs added to the map, filters, project cards and milestone list. DSRT SURF’s text cover was replaced with Mark’s September 10 aerial photograph. The Living Desert’s text cover was replaced with his mountain lion photograph, labeled as existing-zoo imagery rather than expansion evidence.
September 11 addition: The Living Desert expansion joined the hub with its September 11 research baseline and projected fall 2028 Phase 3 completion. Current construction photographs remain to be added to its tracker.
September 25 field update: Mark Miller photographed Desert Retreat’s Oasis Clubhouse, future pool area and residential construction. The project card and interactive map now use the new photographs and link to the complete 11-photo record. The builder’s summer 2027 clubhouse completion target remains a target.
September 10 expansion: Desert Retreat, University Park and DSRT SURF added. New builder and operator checks were identified separately from earlier photographs and research baselines.
