The City of Casa Grande wants to rezone 14.94 acres in the Donovan M. Kramer Airport Industrial Park for CTE Properties LLC can build a custom/vocational truck manufacturing and sales facility.
Casa Grande has purchase agreements in place with CTE for two parcels, one of which is zoned general industrial and one zoned garden and light industrial. The rezoning would rezone the general industrial site to match the other so they can be replatted as a single property for the project.
Mayor Craig McFarland told a local news outlet the City wants to create revenue streams and sales taxes on the site.
According to the submitted narrative, CTE will use the location as its West Coast hub. Output is predicted at 1,200 trucks/year, with an on-site inventory of between 400 and 600 units. The plan calls for an approximately 90KSF production facility and 15 acres of storage on the roughly 30-acre overall site.
The Casa Grande Planning and Zoning Commission will hear the measure this week. Staff has recommended it be approved.
