By signing this petition, the following citizens are requesting the City of Tacoma to demand Sound Transit use Post and Beam construction (concrete or metal pillars) for the new Sounder track, instead of an earthen berm through the Dome District of Tacoma. We are firmly of the opinion that Post and Beam makes sense from East "C" Street to South "C" Street, especially across the Habitat Corridor, called the "B" Street ravine, continuing under I-705 to East "A"Street and at Pacific Avenue. This will provide the possibility for more economic development, will strengthen rather than diminish Tacoma%u2019s Transit Oriented District and protect land for the future recreation and environmental needs of the City of Tacoma.
