Mark your calendars, Casa Grande! Mayor Lisa Fitzgibbons and the Casa Grande City Council are hosting the annual State of the City Address on Wednesday, March 4, 2026 at Casa Grande Union High School.

This year's theme — "Past. Present. Possibilities." — promises to reflect on how far our city has come, celebrate current progress, and lay out an exciting vision for what's ahead.

What to Expect

The evening kicks off with the "Lobby Experience" — a pre-event reception where you can:

• Listen to live music by the Casa Grande Union High School Band
• Explore city department projects and programs showcased in the lobby
• Meet and chat with local leaders and city council members
• Network with fellow Casa Grande residents and business owners

After the reception, Mayor Fitzgibbons will take the stage for her address, covering:

• Infrastructure updates — road projects, utilities, and public spaces
• Economic development — new businesses, job growth, and major investments
• Public safety — police, fire, and emergency services improvements
• Quality of life — parks, recreation, and community programs

Why You Should Go

Whether you've lived in Casa Grande for 30 years or just moved here, the State of the City is one of the best ways to understand where our community is headed. It's also a great chance to see firsthand the investments being made in infrastructure, safety, and economic growth — all of which impact property values and quality of life.

As a local real estate agent, I pay close attention to these updates because they directly affect the housing market. New developments, road improvements, and business growth all signal a healthy, growing community — and that's great news for homeowners and anyone looking to buy.

Getting There

Casa Grande Union High School is located at 2730 N. Trekell Road, just north of Florence Blvd. Free parking is available in the school lot. The event is open to the public, but RSVPs are encouraged through the City of Casa Grande website.
