Correspondence, memoranda, reports, studies, and staff analysis related to Steinbrueck's work on City Council. A substantial portion of the records deal with urban planning, development, design, environmental issues, and comprehensive planning, and reflect his concerns about sustainability and quality of life as affected by the built environment. Also significant in this series are records related to his work on low and moderate income housing, human services, homelessness, neighborhood planning, parks and recreation, and cultural and heritage activities. During Steinbrueck's tenure, City Council dealt with, and his records reflect, controversial issues and events and large projects such as development of the Cedar River Watershed Habitat Conservation Program, expansion of the Washington State Convention Center, incineration of medical waste, the Pacific Place garage, the proposed monorail lines, development and construction of a new Civic Center campus, and the World Trade Organization (WTO) meeting in Seattle.nn
