Council approves rezone of 4.55‑acre property at 118th Ave SE to neighborhood mixed‑use
Summary
Bellevue City Council adopted ordinance 6899 to rezone a 4.55‑acre property at 118th Avenue SE from Office Limited Business (OIB) to Neighborhood Mixed Use (NMU), following a quasi‑judicial process that included staff materials and the hearing examiner recommendation.
Council adopted ordinance 6899 on Jan. 27, approving a rezone of a 4.55‑acre parcel at 118th Avenue Southeast from Office Limited Business to Neighborhood Mixed Use and amending previous ordinance language related to the property.
City attorney Tris Natanis reviewed the quasi‑judicial procedure and the criteria for rezones (consistency with the comprehensive plan, relation to public health/safety/welfare, reasonableness for development, and absence of harm to nearby properties). After a motion and second, council voted in favor to adopt the ordinance; no members registered opposition during the vote.
What it means: The rezoning aligns the parcel’s zoning designation with the hearing examiner recommendation and staff analyses presented to council. The ordinance amends the city code as it applies to this property and authorizes the change in permitted uses consistent with NMU rules.
Next steps: The ordinance is adopted as written; project applicants and staff will proceed under the new zoning framework and any subsequent permit review will follow applicable land‑use procedures.
