``This is a recognition ... that the center is going to be a world-class competitive venue,'' he said.

The district and city have long shared use of various athletic facilities, including gymnasiums, tennis courts and parks.

Under the agreement, Hart would be allowed to use the center as the primary venue for practice as well as for competition including championship league meets, combined relay meets and swimming and diving invitationals.

The deal also would allow for school sports teams to operate food concessions during competitive events.
