Coolidge council approves taking over Artisan Village lease

The city will be taking over responsibility for Artisan Village of Coolidge’s lease with the Coolidge Unified School District following a 5-0 vote.
According to City Attorney Denis Fitzgibbons, the approval of the item, which was placed on Monday evening’s City Council agenda, names the city as the assignee of the agreement between the Artisan Village’s parent organization — the Coolidge Performing Arts Center Foundation — and the district.
The option to take over the lease was brought before the council after City Manager Rick Miller received a letter from CPAC Foundation President Mike Henry, declaring that the foundation was having difficulty meeting its lease agreement obligations.
