by Heather Smathers | Casa Grande Dispatch

A move to the new Community Recreation Center means its major tenant will begin paying rent under a lease approved by the City Council on Monday.

The Boys & Girls Clubs of the Casa Grande Valley will be the tenant in the city-owned Community Recreation Center on the southwest corner of Peart and Kortsen roads, which is set to open later this spring. The organization will have its Main Branch, along with its administrative offices, inside the new center.

Terms of the lease show the organization will pay $40,000 a year. It currently pays just $1 a year for the space it leases from the city in the old gym adjacent to City Hall.
