Welcome to Bellevue's Great Neighborhoods Program

Bellevue is known for its diverse, vibrant, and welcoming neighborhoods. The high quality of life that residents enjoy is no accident - it’s the result of thoughtful and collaborative planning with the people who live, work, and play here.

The Great Neighborhoods program is the process for developing neighborhood area plans that reflect the community’s values and vision for the future. Neighborhood area plans inform future growth and change by providing guidance about the kinds of improvements people want to see.

Neighborhood area plans are part of the city’s overall Comprehensive Plan. They are important tools for addressing the changing needs and conditions at the local level. This project will focus on developing policies and direction around:

  1. Neighborhood Identity: Identify and strengthen a neighborhood’s unique elements.

  1. Mixed Use & Neighborhood Centers: Strengthen centers that provide for goods, services, cultural amenities, and housing for the community.

  1. Community Gathering Spaces: Strengthen indoor and outdoor spaces to foster a sense of belonging and support events and social interactions.

  1. Mobility and Access: Improve access to mobility options and local connections inside and outside the neighborhood.

  2. Environment: Improve qualities of features such as trees, streams, wetlands, nature trails, and other open spaces, to support human health and local wildlife.


Eastgate Neighborhood Plan Questionnaire

You can help shape the Eastgate neighborhood plan by participating in an online questionnaire. Your feedback will be used to inform the future vision and direction for the neighborhood.

The online questionnaire closed on Friday, October 10. Thank you to everyone who participated! We will be sharing out what we learned during our Phase 1 (Discover) engagement in the coming months.

    Eastgate and Factoria are adjacent neighborhood areas with shared planning opportunities and community members who identify with both neighborhoods. The joint in-person kick-off event allows for participants to learn about the overall neighborhood area planning process, while also providing an opportunity for them to provide their ideas on opportunities specific to Eastgate and Factoria. The event will be structured to clearly identify how and where community members can learn about and provide feedback on either the Eastgate and Factoria neighborhood area plans.
