In a statement issued Friday after it was revealed the FBI was investigating a former investor in AZ Sourcing’s PhoenixMart 1,700-business expo center, Casa Grande said $172,000 has been spent so far on the pre-construction of a sewer line extension, but no taxpayer funds have gone toward construction of the 21-inch line east of Interstate 10.
The city also has authorized $100,000 for consulting services.
The city has an agreement with AZ Sourcing to pay $5.2 million of a $10 million project to extend the line, reported the Casa Grande Dispatch on Sunday. The city’s share would be paid over many years through development impact fees.
