Are you setting sudo to true somewhere else. It's hard to see when
you've just shown a portion of playbook. If not and you just need sudo
for this task, then you can set it per-task like so:
tasks:
# TOMCAT 7 ###################################################################
- name: Install Tomcat 7.
apt: "pkg={{ item }} state=installed"
sudo: true
with_items:
- tomcat7
- tomcat7-admin
