The Bellevue political radar

Realpolitiks Bellevue is up!

I’m a general-assignment reporter for the Bellevue Reporter. On this blog you’ll find nascent political and government news items that I’m working on, as well as tidbits that might never make it into the paper – in case you’re that into the Bellevue scene. Boards, commissions, gavel-wielding elected officials, and anyone controlling loads of taxpayer money is fair game.

Feel free to use this as a community forum.  Comment away.

You can also follow me on Twitter at www.twitter.com/Reporter_Hicks, or contact me via e-mail at jhicks@bellevuereporter.com or by phone at 425-453-4290.

ABOUT COMMUNITY BLOGS: Community blogs are written by volunteers. They are members of our community but not employees of this site or newspaper. They have applied or were invited to blog here but their words are their own and are not edited by the editor or staff of this site, and have agreed to abide by our Terms of Use. The authors are solely responsible for their content. If you have concerns about something you read on a community blog, please contact the author directly or email us.

COMMENTING RULES: We encourage an open exchange of ideas in the PNWLocalNews.com community, but we ask you to follow our guidelines for respecting community standards. In a nutshell, don't say anything you wouldn't want your mother to read.

So keep your comments:

  • Civil
  • Smart
  • On-topic
  • Free of profanity

We ask that all participants own their words by registering for an account. It's a simple process that will take seconds and helps keep our comments free of trolls, cranks, and drive-by commenters.

As a community site, we ask that the community help by using the "Flag" button on each comment if they feel the comment has violated the rules. You can also use the up and down arrows on each comment to voice your opinion about that particular comment.
