The Bellevue City Council is reaching out to residents, giving them an opportunity to have a direct impact on how they move around the city. An opening on the Transportation Commission has emerged, and the council is seeking applications to fill this advisory position that plays a significant role in the city's transportation future. The selected commissioner will work closely with city leaders on transportation planning, projects, establishing traffic standards, and figuring out the best ways to fund it all.

The commission, known for its influence in molding Bellevue's transportation landscape, ensures that its multi-modal system evolves in tandem with the community's needs; they meet monthly on the second Thursday at 6:30 p.m., and again on the fourth Thursday when the need arises, as part of their dedication to improving transit infrastructure and policy. Individuals enthused about enhancing the city's mobility are encouraged to apply no later than Friday, July 11, according to Bellevue's official announcement.

Bellevue's search for a new commissioner is inclusive, urging residents from every background to step forth and contribute to the city's fabric; the Mayor, with the Council's sanction, will appoint the would-be commissioner, whose term will span four years, offered on a volunteer basis yet rich in the chance to shape one's community. The city, in its commitment to diversity and inclusion, maintains that every Bellevue citizen has something valuable to contribute and thus may apply.
