Casa Grande City Council approved first reading of an ordinance granting the City Manager authority to negotiate property acquisitions for 34 infrastructure projects without requiring individual council approval for each transaction.

Casa Grande voters will decide on Proposition 496 this November, a $67 million bond measure that would fund a new aquatic complex, lighted baseball and softball fields, and multipurpose sports and event spaces to enhance recreation and support the city’s growing population
