Wilburton Vision Implementation

For an overview of the Wilburton Vision Implementation project, the project boundaries, and vision elements, please read our project brochure.

Since project launch, we heard from community members through different outreach activities, including an online questionnaire, information sessions, youth engagement, small business visits, walking tours, tabling events, and presentations to community groups and organizations. Community input has helped enhance the Wilburton TOD vision, shape different growth alternatives to evaluate, and identify key policy moves to support vision implementation.

On July 23, 2024, the City Council adopted the Wilburton Vision Implementation Comprehensive Plan Amendment (CPA). The CPA advances the vision for the Wilburton TOD area through targeted goals and policies in the Wilburton/N.E. Eighth Street Subarea Plan. This CPA provides a guiding implementation framework for land use code amendments, affordable housing approaches, sustainability, and multimodal transportation in the Wilburton TOD area.

Currently, the city is gathering input on the land use code amendment (LUCA), which will come to the Planning Commission and the City Council later this year. A public review draft of the LUCA was shared in late May, and staff anticipate sharing an updated draft in the coming weeks. Please visit our project webpage on the City of Bellevue website for additional information regarding project milestones and upcoming meetings.
