Community invited to share input by Nov. 12 on Bellevues water plans

Bellevue Utilities is revising its stormwater, drinking water, and wastewater management plans to ensure continued reliability and environmental protection. The updates come as the city seeks to address concerns about flooding and pollution. Utilities Director Lucy Liu highlighted the necessity of community engagement, noting, “No one likes flooded streets, polluted waterways, or declining plant and animal habitats.” Residents can submit their feedback through an online survey until November 12 and can also apply for a focus group to discuss water priorities in detail. These efforts align with Bellevue's commitment to maintaining a thriving community and sustainable water systems. The project website at BellevueWA.gov/ssw-plan offers information on how to participate. Community input will guide future decisions regarding water management in the city. The revisions reflect Bellevue's proactive approach to addressing potential environmental challenges.
