the LUTC had a question about the change in the Parks level of service from 10.7 acres of parkland per
1,000 population to 10.1 acres per 1,000. They also asked what steps the City was taking to increase the
level of service. The LUTC also questioned the reason for changing the capacity for a performing arts center
from 800 to 1,000 seats. They also asked staff whether the Lakehaven Utility District would still purchase
water from Tacoma after the construction of the Second Supply Pipeline and if staff knew when the Fire
Department might be constructing new fire stations. Staff responded that they would follow up on these
questions and provide responses at the following LUTC meeting.
After presentation on the City Center Chapter, the LUTC asked for clarification on whether there would be
one or two parks constructed in the City Center. Staff responded that they would clarify this language. The

by Weyerhaeuser was in the PAA. The only comment on Chapter Ten, Private Utilities was that many of the
