Neighborhood Projects

Neighborhood Enhancement Program

The Neighborhood Enhancement Program allows residents to select high priority projects for city-funded construction in their neighborhoods. Typical enhancements include park improvements, new trail connections, replacement sidewalk blocks and additional street lights.

NEP project

How the Neighborhood Enhancement Program works:

Part of the city’s Capital Investment Program (CIP) budget is set aside for NEP projects.
Bellevue is divided into 13 Neighborhood Enhancement Areas.
NEP funds are divided among the NEP areas according to number of households in each area.
Every three years, each NEP area has an opportunity to request projects. NEP schedule
Residents submit requests for projects.
City staff reviews requested projects for compliance with NEP screening criteria.
Project descriptions and cost estimates are presented to residents, and they vote for their top two or three projects.
In the NEP Voting process, votes are tallied according to a point system for first, second or third choices.
Projects are funded based on the points received and funds available for the area.
The city implements the funded projects. NEP Project Implementation
City funds are allocated for project maintenance.

NEP Project

When NEP funds become available for your neighborhood, a newsletter will be mailed to you. You can submit ideas for improvements online or on a request card sent with the newsletter. Once requests are received, staff will begin researching them.
