Summit West is the youngest of thirteen neighborhood districts formally recognized by the City of Bend. Our role is to build community, improve the quality of life in our friendly little corner of town, and reflect input about the future of Bend. Our free, biweekly e-newsletters keep you informed about neighborhood news and events that may affect you. We encourage you to get involved!​
The City of Bend relies on neighborhood districts as key partners to facilitate valuable feedback from residents and businesses on projects, programs, and policy decision-making by City Council and staff. We encourage your civic engagement!​​
