UNANIMOUS Support from Bellevue City Council!

Excited to share that at last night's Bellevue City Council meeting, we received UNANIMOUS support from City Council 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 formal partnership with SPLASHForward.

On behalf of SPLASHForward, thank you!


We can't thank our Bellevue Parks staff, our Bellevue City Council members, and YOU enough!


Special thanks to Council Members Jennifer Robertson, John Stokes, Deputy Mayor Jared Nieuwenhuis, Janice Zahn, Conrad Lee, Jeremy Barksdale and Mayor Lynne Robinson for your strong voices of support for a new public aquatic facility in Bellevue and confidence in our partnership.


And a special shout out to Susie Pietz and Katoya Palmer for using their strong voices and personal stories in support of SPLASHForward's efforts during oral communications.


We are ready to take the next steps to develop partnerships and identify funding sources that will fully capitalize on this great opportunity. Together we will build a hallmark for the City that will become a beacon for the region.


To all of you who have long supported this effort, you have made a difference and we look forward to the journey ahead with you.
