In association with the owner’s proposed fire services for the project site, the Long Beach Water Department has requested an easement for water line purposes (Exhibit A).

This matter was reviewed by Deputy City Attorney Linda T. Vu on May 16, 2017 and by Budget Analysis Officer Julissa José-Murray on May 25, 2017.
