A simple fix is something like this:

Create the /etc/systemd/system/rc-local.service file with the following
contents:

[Unit]
Description=/etc/rc.local Compatibility

[Service]
Type=idle
ExecStart=/etc/rc.systemd
TimeoutSec=0
RemainAfterExit=yes

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Create a file /etc/rc.systemd with whatever you want to run, set it to executable.
Delete everything you added from rc.local until this gets properly fixed 

run systemctl daemon-reload

Reboot to test it.

Working for me at the moment

Title:
  rc.local runs earlier than cloud-init.service

Status in cloud-init package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  per https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-faq/ch-customizing.en.html
   | The rc.local script is executed at the end of each multiuser runlevel.

  Generally speaking people expect rc.local to be run as "the last thing
  in boot".

  currently it is being run by systemd much earlier.

  Provided in the attached is user-data that tells cloud-init to write a
  file in /usr/local/bin/rc-local-message and edit set rc.local to
  execute it.

  On current wily, under most scenarios the script will not be executed
  as rc.local will most likely run before the cloud-init service has a
  chance to update /etc/rc.local.

  To reproduce:
   a.) launch an instance with provided user-data

  Expected behavior would be:
   1.  /run/rc-local-message exists with contents of /proc/uptime at the time it was run
   2.  /rc-local-message.mark exists with the number of times this script has been run ('1' after first boot)
   3.  /var/log/rc-local-message.log exists with a message like:
        [/var/log/rc-local-message.log] <date> === successful boot 1 ====
   4. console log should also have message like in 3 with '/dev/console'

  4 is broken as rc.local output is not sent to console as reported
  separately at bug 1468102.
