An empty Clovis retail building is going from a Costco to Child Welfare Services.
The Fresno County Board of Supervisors has approved an agreement to lease 380 W. Ashlan Ave., the former home of the Clovis Costco that closed in July 2019 after 29 years in operation.
The county’s rent on the building would start at $186,691 per month for the first year — more than $2.24 million for the entire year. That rate would increase annually to $352,858 a month — more than $4.23 million for the full 12 months in the final year of the 19-year lease agreement.
