The West Lake Sammamish Association is a community organization working to maintain the residential neighborhood character of the West Lake Sammamish Parkway area.
Redmond Shoreline Master Program Update The City of Redmond is the first lakeside jurisdiction updating their Shoreline Master Program. Members of WLSA's Board and Redmond residents living along the Parkway have been actively involved in the process. Last fall, while the SMPU was under review by Redmond's Planning Commission, WLSA submitted the following letter objecting to several aspects of the proposed plan. Click here to Review Residents' Letter In Jan. 2008 the Planning Commission approved a draft SMPU making several changes per Parkway resident requests. The residents immediately submitted a detailed list of requested changes to the City and several residents have been meeting with staff to incorporate the changes. Both the Planning Commission and residents' versions of the SMPU language will come before the Mayor & Council starting June 3rd, 2008.
Neighborhood Issues Survey During Feb. 2008 WLSA's Board sponsored a survey of members. The survey was designed to determine member awareness of shoreline planning activity and to provide a vehicle for residents to prioritize the issues facing the neighborhood. The survey was distributed by email to nearly 200 members. Approximately 60 have responded. The results of the survey can be reviewed by going to this link - Spring 2008 Neighborhood Survey results
Parkway Improvement Project WLSA members and residents of the Parkway participated in the City of Bellevue's roadway planning project. Initiated in the Fall of 2003, this effort selected future improvements along nearly 6 miles of the southern portion of the road and possibly Redmond's section as well. A final alternative was selected in 2005. As of Fall 2007, Bellevue has programmed some $6.5 million (spread over 6 years) to complete at least a portion of the $25-30 million project. WLSA continues to monitor the project and push for its implementation. City staff have been asked to prepare an update on the project's status for presentation at WLSA's next Neighborhood Meeting. Here's how you can help!
