President’s
Letter
As the newly elected president of the Bellevue Civic
Association I’m looking forward to serving you, my neighbors, and
helping Bellevue become an even greater place to live, shop and work.
Many of you know me as the RE/MAX agent who prepares the Bellevue Real
Estate Report for our newsletter. Or we may have met on the Security
Patrol, hanging off the back of a city refuse truck on a Bellevue
cleanup Day, at a Garden Walk, or at a food drive. That’s the beauty of
this neighborhood. There are so many opportunities to make a difference
and
have some fun at the same time.
The BCA has a distinguished history of making a difference in our
lives. To name a few examples, our Association has played a role in the
restoration of Princeton Creek, the revitalization of our business
district, and the implementation of a plan to replace our much beloved
(but aging) trees. And our Security Patrol has helped make our streets
some of the safest in the city. This kind of progress takes leadership,
and we have been fortunate to have so many leaders who have served us so
well for so long. If we are to continue to flourish, we will need more
people who are willing to take an active role in guiding the
Association. Take a look at the different committees listed herein and
see where you might be willing to step up. It’s your chance to make a
difference!
Recently, our new officers met to talk about goals and plans for the
coming year. One of the topics discussed was participation at certain
events. I believe people vote with their attendance and we want to
sponsor activities that
