In October 2021, Bellevue City Council unanimously supported to proceed with our Parks and SPLASHForward recommendations for facility concept plan, a master plan update for Bellevue Airfield Park to include the proposed aquatic center, and a formal partnership with SPLASHForward. In March of 2022, a memorandum of understanding between SPLASHForward and the city was approved by city council and the master plan update is underway.
In April of 2023, City Council again unanimously supported the Parks Board master plan recommendation for Bellevue Airfield Park which is now under WA state environmental review. We anticipate an environmental determination near the end of 2023 or early 2024.
