The vision for Redmond is decided by the people in our community. Who we are and who we want to be as a city, what our values and priorities are, and how we build and serve our community -- all are determined by community members themselves. We must find solutions for accommodating growth that fit our community values, particularly how growth is distributed in our community and what it looks like.

La visión para Redmond se decide por la gente de la comunidad. Quien somos y quien queremos ser como ciudad, cuales son nuestros valores y prioridades, y como construimos y servimos a nuestra comunidad – todo se determina por los mismos miembros de la comunidad. ¡Es hora de alzar su voz!

Staff will be incorporating your feedback into policy and code updates that will impact the next 30 years.

    CLOSED: This discussion has concluded.

    Please share your thoughts on how Equity & Inclusion is (or should be) reflected in Redmond's built environment. 

    Our working definitions:

    Equity - The City provides all community members with equal and effective city services, resources, opportunities, and influence so that all people achieve their full potential and thrive. Equity is a purposeful and eager journey toward well-being as defined by those most negatively impacted.

    Inclusion - The City treats all people respectfully; values all people for their distinctive skills, experiences, and perspectives; engages all people to contribute to the community’s success; and leverages resources and city services where needed.

    Intent: 

    • To ensure that all people are meaningfully engaged to shape city policies and processes.
    • To include, accommodate, and empower groups of people who have historically been excluded because of their gender, race and/or ethnicity, LGBTQIA+, age, religion, disabilities, or their socioeconomic, immigration, or veteran status, or as a member of any historically marginalized group.
    • To apply an equity process in all facets of planning to eliminate socioeconomic disparities.
    • To identify and remediate inequitable policies, processes, or regulations and remove barriers to equity and inclusion.
    • To create equitable intergenerational, geographic, and process outcomes.

    Share your Stories:

    • What does Equity & Inclusion mean to you?  What does Equity & Inclusion mean to your daily experiences in our community?  
    • How can we improve Equity & Inclusion through our built and natural environment?
