LYNNWOOD—At a three-hour work session Monday, September 15, Lynnwood’s City Council walked a cautious tightrope between innovating its City Center, through the Lynnwood Public Facilities District (LPFC) Master Plan, while balancing short-term financing strategies to tackle the city’s looming $10.7 million budget deficit.

One third of Monday’s meeting revolved around the LPFD Master Plan and its associated Development Agreement.
Council was briefed on this through a presentation led by Ben Wolters, Director of Development and Business Services, Sarah Cho, City Center Program Manager, and David Mach, City Engineer.
