Olde Towne Redevelopment?

A CDBG (Community Development Block Grant) Public Forum which will be held on Tuesday, Nov. 3rd at 6pm in the Bellevue City Council Chambers. We encourage all residents who reside in these areas south of Mission Avenue to attend.
 Any Bellevue Citizen or Business Owner is welcome.

Update On Olde Towne Redevelopment

CDBG funding was approved to upgrade area sidewalks and Thompson Park in Olde Towne. In addition, a segment of these funds will also be utilized within the Olde Towne business community to update the look through more modern facades. Additional information will be provided on the Olde Towne Bellevue website as it becomes available.
  

Strategic Planning Questions

I have had many area citizens ask why I believe strategic planning is important for the City of Bellevue. The answer is easy. I want Bellevue to have a plan. This is why I have pursued the issue for first seven months I was on the Council. Bellevue had its first session on August 5, 2009. This process will provide Bellevue with a unified voice and mission. It will be the springboard Bellevue needs to help our community be more proactive and less reactive. It will make sure our strategies are well aligned with the issues that Bellevue faces on a daily basis.  This process creates goals and objectives that are measurable and creates strategies to help us achieve those goals. Lastly we will have action plans that tell us who is responsible for a task, how we will accomplish the task, timeline and budget for the task. In other words, Bellevue will have a plan.

Bellevue held its second strategic planning session on July 6, 2010. We are well on our way to making this an annual habit with the hope of presenting a balanced budget each year to Bellevue Citizens and continuing on the path of continued Economic Development. Bellevue does, indeed, have a plan for its future!

I will work very hard to share current information with Bellevue Citizens. I encourage you to follow my updates on Twitter. In addition, The City of Bellevue now has a Facebook Page that you can tap into for information, updates
and an exchange of thoughts with other Bellevue residents.
