Join conversation on Bellevue Utilities budget and rates

Published May 4 2026

Bellevue Utilities customers are invited to learn about and provide input on the Bellevue Utilities' budget and rates being considered for 2027-28 through a series of Community Connect open houses this month.

These informal, drop-in events offer an opportunity to explore how the budget supports safe, reliable water, and sewer and stormwater services, and what it means for customer rates. All customers in the Bellevue Utilities service area, which includes some neighboring cities, can talk directly with Utilities staff, ask questions and share feedback ahead of City Council review of a proposed Utilities budget later this year.

Community Connect Open Houses

  • Wednesday, May 6, Mini City Hall, 1:30-3:30 p.m.
  • Friday, May 15, North Bellevue Community Center, 4-6 p.m.
  • Wednesday, May 20, South Bellevue Community Center, 11 a.m.-2 p.m.
  • Wednesday, May 27, City Hall, 11:30 a.m.-1:30 p.m.

Community feedback plays an important role in shaping Utilities' budget and rates, helping ensure investments reflect community priorities, affordability considerations and long-term system reliability.
