Force local.css to load last so that overrides take effect

I'm trying to override some colors using the local.css file. It appears the local.css is loaded before the design.css so my changes don't appear. If I use the Chrome developer tool I can uncheck the design.css entry and the page renders as I expect it to. Not sure what I'm doing wrong at this point.
