crews will redirect traffic on Airport Way to focus on construction on the center pier.

March 22, 2201
Council President Kruller asked why
telecom companies are sometimes given
permission to run through overhead
powerlines rather than undergrounding.
How can ordinances be waived without
talking to Council? Referenced 53rd Ave S
and TIB projects.
TMC 11.28.140, "Request for
Waiver," gives the Public Works
Director the ability to waive the
undergrounding requirement in
certain circumstances of undue
hardship.
