Utilities Proposed 2025-34 Plan for Capital Projects

Bellevue Utilities invites the public to learn about its proposed capital projects for the next 10 years. In 2023, we asked the public to help us prioritize the projects that are most important for our community. We heard from many residents and have developed a proposed plan. We welcome public comment and feedback on the proposed plan.

View an overview of the 2025-2034 Proposed Capital Investment Plan.

Utilities Capital Investment Program Plan

The Utilities 10-year Capital Investment Program (CIP) Plan is updated every two years during the budget process. Utilities CIP projects include replacement of aging pipes, pumps and reservoirs as well as construction of new ones for a growing Bellevue. These projects support Bellevue’s essential utility services — drinking water, wastewater, surface water and stormwater services — helping to ensure Bellevue residents continue to receive the services they rely on now and in the future.

Open House - Community Discussion

Bellevue Utilities hosted three days of open houses the week of April 15, 2024. The community was invited to learn about proposed capital improvement projects and budget for the next 10 years.

If you were unable to attend an in-person community discussion, the following recorded overview is available to watch.

UPDATE: Bellevue Utilities is now accepting comments and feedback until May 20 .

Email your comment and/or feedback to bshaha@bellevuewa.gov.
Public comments and feedback will be presented to and reviewed by the Environmental Services Commission (ESC) at its regularly scheduled meeting in June. The commission advises the City Council on utility-related issues, including capital project financing.
The ESC will provide its recommendations regarding utilities capital projects in September. The finalized 2025-34 Utilities CIP plan will be presented to the City Council for approval in November.

Thank you for taking the time to learn more about these proposed projects that support your utility services. We appreciate your feedback.
