Alcohol referendum: pro and con

Historically, Bellevue has been a dry town. No neighborhood bars where friends can gather to tip a few frosties and talk over the triumphs or travails of the day. No restaurants where diners may sip a pre-dinner whiskey sour.

For decades, though, proponents of change have attempted to revoke that dry status by proposing referendums that would allow liquor licenses in Bellevue. This year's election once again puts the issue on the May 17 ballot, with those voters who prefer maintaining the status quo vying against those who feel that it is time to change.

Longtime Bellevue official Rosemary Heflin dies

The woman whose impact on Bellevue will be felt for generations has died.

Rosemary Heflin, 77, died in her Bellevue home on Saturday, Dec. 19, 2009.

Heflin was the first woman ever elected to Bellevue Council, running for office in the 1970s, and later became the borough's first -- and only -- woman mayor. She devoted more than two decades to Bellevue government, but her involvement and activism started long before she took a seat in council chambers.
