OTHER
SUBMITTED BY: Tho Kraus, Assistant City Manager for Administrative Services
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council approve the Citizens’ Advisory
Boards, Committees and Commission work plans.
DISCUSSION: Chapter 2.68 of the Lakewood Municipal Code requires all City of Lakewood Citizens’
Advisory Boards, Committees and Commissions, authorized by the City Council to conduct research make
recommendations or perform other work in furtherance of the goals and objectives of the City, to follow a
properly executed annual work plan specific to that body. Accordingly, a work plan for the Arts
Commission, Community Services Advisory Board, Lakewood’s Promise Advisory Board, Landmarks and
Heritage Advisory Board, Lodging Tax Advisory Committee, Parks and Recreation Advisory Board,
Planning Commission, Public Safety Advisory Committee and the Youth Council has been reviewed by
each committee and is attached for City Council consideration.
Pursuant to City Code, the City Council is expected to review the work plan of each Advisory Board and
Committee and formally approve each work plan. The City Council may amend the work plans as
appropriate. If an advisory group anticipates departure from the work plan, such departure should be
authorized by the City Council. City Council reviewed the proposed work plan for each Board and
Commission at the Study Session held on February 8, 2016.
ALTERNATIVE(S): The City Council may amend each work plan as appropriate.
FISCAL IMPACT: Any applicable budget is included with the attached work plans.
Prepared by City Manager Review
Department Director

DISCUSSION, CONTINUED: Pursuant to that discussion, the following adjustments have been made to
the work plans:
• The Planning Commission:
o The Six Year Transportation Improvement Plan was added to the meeting schedule.
• The Lodging Tax Advisory Committee :
o Members Section: Identified committee membership by type (Chair, Respresent Businesses
Authorized to Collect and Represent Businessed Authorized to Receive); and added
respective business name after each member; and listed vacant position.
o Purpose Section: Added language from the City’s code as it relates to membership - “The
number of members who are representatives of businesses required to collect tax shall equal
the number of members who are involved in activities authorized to be funded by revenue
received”.
o Meeting Schedule Section: Removed June/July meeting as those are on as as needed basis;
removed October meeting as it is technically not a committee meeting (this meeting is a
presentation of the LTAC recommendation to the City Council); and dded “more frequently
as needed”.

2016 Work Plan:
Update the City’s website with historical maps and photographs of Lakewood.
Obtain additional grant funding through the Pierce County Landmarks and
Historic Preservation Commission, and the Washington State Certified Local
Government Grant program.
Secure a local landmark designation for the Woodbrook Hunt Club.
Continue dialogue with Western State Hospital in the implementation of a
Cultural Resources Management Plan.
Design, procure, and place historical plaques on properties designated as
Landmarks and Community Landmarks.
Develop public outreach activities in conjunction with the Lakewood Historical
Society, the Arts Commission, the Clover Park School District, Lakewold
Gardens, and the Lakewood Student Council.
Explore the use of the Community Landmark designation for the Colonial Center
and the Little Red Schoolhouse. Other potential candidates include: Western
State Hospital; Rhodesleigh House; Villa Carman (Madera); the Flett House;
Little Church on the Prairie; Thornewood Castle; Mueller-Harkins Hangar;
Tacoma Country and Golf Club; and the Alan Liddle House.
The Landmarks and Heritage Advisory Board has provided no specific timelines for the
completion of their work plan in 2016 since this Board is often dependent on the follow-
through of other public agencies or private property owners. Further, since city
resources are limited, many of the board members regularly take on staff-related work
assignments.
