WATER SERVICES
The City of Clyde Hill receives its potable water from the City of Bellevue. In 1973, Bellevue took over Water District #68, who served as Clyde Hill's water supplier at that time. Because a number of Water District customers would live outside of Bellevue's city limits, the City and the District signed a 99-year agreement to make sure that Bellevue provided water service equitably to the District customers whether they were inside or outside of Bellevue's city limits.
The current supply of drinking water is acquired through the Cascade Water Alliance, an association of water districts and cities, which serves as a regional water supply agency and wholesale water provider. Cascade purchases water from Seattle and provides it to Bellevue and other members in a cost-effective and environmentally sensitive way.
- The water comes from the protected watersheds of the Cedar and South Fork Tolt rivers in the Cascade Mountains and meets or exceeds state and federal water quality requirements.
- Eight municipalities and water districts in King County are members of the Cascade Water Alliance.
