This strategy of a new plan coupled with BIG (Bellevue Initiative for Growth) promises "the best in the 'Burgh - Bellevue.

Marketing, Business Development and Events Planning Committees have been formed and are actively engaged to enhance the mission.

The Borough of Bellevue entered into the Tri-Boro Comprehensive Planning initiative with Avalon and Ben Avon in 2001.  The proposed tri-borough zoning ordinance and map have now been officially adopted by the three communities.

In August of 2009, the municipalities of Bellevue, and Ben Avon each adopted the Avalon-Bellevue-Ben Avon Joint Zoning Ordinance  together with the Zoning Map.  Avalon adopted the plan in September 2009.  Feel free to download these .pdf files or examine the hard copy made available at the offices of the individual municipalities. 

An essential component of this collaborative effort generated by The Tri-Borough Joint Comprehensive Plan Steering Committee, is the Multi-Municipal Comprehensive Plan adopted by each of the respective municipalities in 2004.

Bellevue is at a crossroads!  Since 1933, Bellevue has been a dry town.  The residents of Bellevue who are registered voters must decide this issue.  The petition for change is on the table.  Review the current proposal supporting The Alcohol Referendum in Bellevue.

Vendors set-up in the Hawley Avenue Municipal Parking Lot with provisions of a variety of fresh vegetables, fruits, pasta, cheese, flowers and plants and exceptional home-baked goods.

Rain or shine, the market provides for the very best selections of fresh!  These farmers, gardeners, bakers,  and other vendors make fresh convenient. Located on the bus routes, it is an easy stop on the way home.  Enjoy the bounty provided by the local farmers and purveyors of seasonal produce and foodstuffs. We look forward to seeing you each and every week.

Bellevue Borough Building Renovation   As a prelude to the major overhaul, new windows were installed in the Borough Building in 2008.  The full-blown renovation of the Bellevue Borough Building began in June of 2009.   Contractors were on schedule to complete the work in October 2009.    Clicking the images on the left provides a progressive sneak peek of the project.  Photographic documentation was provided on a weekly basis.  Early in October 2009 finishing touches were being applied.  Temporary offices were abandoned, makeshift offices were occupied and new furnishings were en route to complete the project.   In November 2009, the furnishings were installed.  The third floor meeting room was officially designated as the "Rosemary Heflin Council Chambers" in honor of our esteemed civil servant.  The Open House and ribbon-cutting ceremony occurred on December 4, 2009.

In observance of Memorial Day and in celebration of Independence Day, AGH Suburban Campus installs a Neighborhood Honor Wall to honor all who have served in the Military.  In 2009, the Neighborhood Honor Wall was moved from its previous location in the cafeteria to the Gift Corner, making the display more visible to the general community.

Anyone who had someone serving in the military, past or present, whom they would like to honor, submitted a photo and available information including Name, Rank, Branch of Service, Dates Served, the specific conflict and where stationed.

If the service person had given their life in the service of their country, families provided the details of the circumstances, so that this ultimate sacrifice could be highlighted. Photos were accepted on a continuing basis.  Set up began early in May to provide a display in honor of Memorial Day.  Photos continue to be added as they are received.

The display remains on view through August.  PHOTOS CANNOT BE RETURNED.  PLEASE DO NOT SEND ORIGINAL PHOTOS.  Photos may be delivered in person to the Gift Corner, located in the lobby of Allegheny General Hospital – Suburban Campus, Monday – Friday 8:00am – 4:00-pm or Saturday 8:00am-2:00pm.  Photos may be mailed to:  Allegheny General Hospital – Suburban Campus, 100 South Jackson Avenue, Pittsburgh, PA 15202.
