After running in the most expensive legislative race in the state’s history — and coming out victorious — Sen. Andy Hill of the 45th Legislative District is returning for a second term humbled, heartened and ready to work.
During the campaign trail, Hill (R-Redmond) raised almost $1 million for his campaign and his opponent, Matt Isenhower, brought in about $500,000. In addition, outside groups con-tributed more than $1.4 mil-lion to the race. Despite the big numbers, Hill said one thing he learned from his experience this past election is that, “you can’t buy elections.”
Hill has also learned a few things from his first four years in office, the biggest takeaway being that the easiest thing to do is to say “no.” Whereas, getting to a “yes” is a much more dif-
ficult task. Part of that difficulty is working across the aisle to get to a solution everyone can agree on without sacrificing their principles.
This bipartisan work has been something Hill has focused on as he said he heard that people like it when legislators come up with bipartisan results. And as his second term in office is set to begin, Hill is prepared to continue that work.
One way he plans to do that is as chair of the Senate Ways and Means Committee and chief Senate budget writer — for which he has been reappointed. This is a role Hill takes seri-ously because he is working with taxpayers’ dollars.
“It’s their money,” he said. “It’s not my money.”
While Gov. Jay Inslee released a two-year budget of $39 billion on Dec. 18, Hill said he is look-ing at closer to $37 billion as that $2 billion or so difference
Sen. Hill is ready to tackle challenges in his second term
State Rep. Larry Springer, D-Kirkland of the 45th District, has been elected deputy major-ity leader of the Democratic Caucus in the state House, which will focus on business outreach and engagement.
As part of caucus leader-ship, Springer said he will help determine what legislation goes forward and whether a specific bill will be pursued by his party, as well as build rela-tions with business leaders in the state, including Redmond. The main topics that concern businesses, Springer said, are
taxation, land use and regula-tions.
“If you are a business person (in the district), if you own a particular business and you have concerns about transpor-tation or health care or taxa-tion, I’m the person that would be probably be handling it,” he said.
As a small business owner, having run The Grape Choice in downtown Kirkland for 25 years with his wife Penny Sweet, Springer said his experi-ence allows him to see how legislation directly affects busi-ness owners.
“I understand probably
better than most of my col-leagues the struggles that small business owners face, the day-to-day struggle of keeping your business open and paying employees and dealing with the recession that we’re recovering from,” he said.

Driver, passenger killed in collision near RedmondStaff RepoRt
The driver and a passenger in an Acura Integra died at the scene in a head-on collision in the 18400 block of Northeast 128th Way near Redmond on the evening of Dec. 19, according to King County Sheriff ’s Office Sgt. DB Gates.
Gates said a witness called 911 at about 5:30 p.m. to report the accident, during which the Acura collided with a Honda Accord occupied by three people.
The Acura was driving west on Northeast 128th Way when it col-lided with the eastbound-moving Honda occupied by two adults and a 4-year-old child. An adult female in the Honda was transported to an area hospital with serious injuries while the adult male and child sustained minor injuries.
“The investigation will take weeks for the detectives to complete,” said Gates, who didn’t have an update on the ac-
cident at the Reporter’s deadline.Gates said the King County Sheriff ’s
Office Major Accident Response and Reconstruction (MARR) unit will re-construct what occurred and determine the cause, speeds and whether drugs or alcohol were involved.
Gender, age and identities of the de-ceased will be released by the Medical Examiner’s Office after next of kin are notified. Gates said the sheriff ’s office doesn’t release the names of the surviv-ing victims.
Anyone who may have witnessed the collision or the events leading up to it are asked to call the King County Com-munications Center at (206) 296-3311.
project. Transportation is a huge issue for the business community.”
One way he said he intends to help out businesses is by push-ing through tax exemp-tions for hi-tech and biotech startups, which have been popping up in recent years on taxes such as the business and occupation tax.
“The argument will be that the state’s giv-ing up money, yet the exemption is important for businesses to give them a foot up on the ground,” he said. “It especially applies, not only to startups in the tech sector, but the biomedical tech sector — it is so heavily into research. They do a lot of research work and it takes a lot time before they make a profit at all. They are ones that deserves a tax exemp-tion until they can they make a profit. I sort of view my job as helping
business get started and lowering their costs and the regulatory burden they take.”
Another way in which Springer intends to reach out to businesses when the Legislature is not in session is to host Saturday morning “coffee hours” where people can meet him at a predetermined coffee shop in the area and offer feedback on leg-islative issues. During the legislative session, Springer said he holds weekly meetings with business lobbyist.
Springer currently serves as a member of three chambers of commerce working on business development and promotion.
Springer was first elected to the Legis-lature in 2004 and, in addition to his leader-ship position, currently serves on the Appro-priations, Finance and Local Government committees.

will come through pro-posed taxes.
Hill said raising taxes is an easy but lazy way to balance a budget.
“We’ve got a challeng-ing year in front of us, but it’s not insurmountable,” Hill said.
For Hill, writing a budget means sitting in a windowless room with his democratic counter-part for two months and going over things line by line. He noted that the budget is usually the most partisan issue legislators vote on, but the budget he wrote for 2013-15 received the most bipar-tisan votes in the state in 64 years.
“It can be done in a bipartisan manner,” Hill said.
Sen. Joe Fain of the 47th Legislative District said as a lawmaker, Hill understands that process matters and his process is one that crosses the aisle — pointing to his colleague’s work on the budget as an example.
Fain (R-Auburn), who was elected in 2010 just as Hill was, serves on the transportation budget-writing team and is the Senate Majority Floor Leader and works closely with Hill.
“He’s my favorite mem-ber of the Legislature to work with,” Fain said.
He added that Hill is a wealth of knowledge and very detail oriented. Hill focuses on the reality
of how things will work when ideas and policies are put into action, Fain said.
Fain said it is important that when someone gives their word, that they live by it. Hill is that way, he said.
“For me, I want to work with people that I can trust…that share my val-ues,” Fain said. “Nobody embodies it more than Andy Hill.”
[ HILL from page 1] LEHTINEN TRIAL SCHEDULED TO BEGIN MAY 15
Eric Emil Lehtinen, a Redmond man who is accused of injecting his son with heroin, had a case-setting hearing on Dec. 3 and the court set
a trial date for May 15, according to a press secretary for the King
County Prosecuting Attorney O� ce.
Lehtinen pleaded not guilty to the charge of � rst-degree attempted
murder at his arraignment on Oct. 10, 2013 at the King County
Courthouse.
Lehtinen’s son, who was 4 at the time of the Sept. 24, 2013
incident, was released from Seattle Children’s Hospital in October 2013.
The man remains in the King County Jail in Seattle with bail set
at $3 million. If convicted, he could face at least 15 years in prison.
HAGGART’S CASE-SETTING HEARING CONTINUED TO JAN. 8Redmond resident Daniel Haggart, who pleaded not guilty to a charge
of � rst-degree murder in the stabbing death of Redmond’s Cara
Neil in July, had his case-setting hearing on Dec. 4 continued to Jan.
8, according to a press secretary for the King County Prosecuting
Attorney O� ce. At 10:50 p.m. on July 18, Redmond
police responded to reports of a � ght outside of SoulFood Books at 15748 Redmond Way. O� cers and
� re personnel arrived, provided � rst aid to Neil and arrested
25-year-old Haggart. According to a Redmond Police Department
(RPD) press release, the suspect and victim were acquaintances.

Reader very disturbed by the increasing homeless population
I reference an article from the July 27-Aug. 9, 2005 Redmond Reporter about a city forum on homelessness. Per this article and the county representative, Jeff Natter, from the Committee to End Homelessness in King County, there should be no homelessness in 10 years.
I haven’t seen this, nor has your paper, per a recent article.
I have been very disturbed by the increas-ing homeless population around our public buildings and now I hear downtown has similar problems. Per the Bible, the poor will always be among us and the homeless as part of that.
What we do about it is important. Obvi-ously throwing money at a 10-year plan/committee wasn’t the answer. I don’t have any cure-all answers, either. I support church
and community programs, but avoid giving directly to the homeless people. I feel bad about this, but I am never sure who RE-ALLY needs our help and who is playing the system. (I have seen people take food given them from a fast-food restaurant, and as soon as the car leaves toss it in the trash.)
Again, this is a good topic to continue discussing during this holiday season to help those less fortunate.Barbara Dickson, Redmond

From the eye-opening activities of the “Odysseo” horses and acrobats to the head-shaking disruption of local phone, television, hi-speed Internet and 911 services due to � ber and copper cables being accidentally cut, tons of readers scoured our web-site and perused our stories over the past year.
� is year, we not only attracted local readers, but people from across the nation with our story about the “Merry Christmas” signs. I was even featured on a radio station out of Texas about the signs.
In October, reporter Samantha Pak and myself received six awards — including two � rsts — for writing and photography at the Washington Newspa-per Publishers Association Annual Better Newspaper Contest.
Some stories were fun to cover and others were tough to relay to our readers.
Here’s our top 10 rundown, according to Google Analytics:
1. ‘Odysseo’ opens at Marymoor — Feb. 14:Cavalia’s $30 million theatrical production of
“Odysseo” took place under the White Big Top at Marymoor Park and ran February through March.
� e show featured equestrian arts, stage arts and high-tech theatrical e� ects.
2. Kirkland man hit by car in crosswalk, dies at Harborview; Microso� employee was ‘such a laughing, beautiful, great spirit,’ friend says — Sept. 17:
� e King County Medical Examiner’s o� ce con� rmed that a man in his 40s, who was struck by a car in a crosswalk while out walking his dog in Kirkland on Sept. 15, died. Kyle Warnick was sent to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle with life-threatening injuries. He died on Sept. 16.
3. Former Redmond police chief Harris, teen die in car accident — Aug. 25:
Former Redmond Police Department (RPD) chief Steven Harris, who spent 40-plus years in law enforcement, died in a head-on car crash at around 10 p.m. on Aug. 24.
4. Redmond High sports trio signs letters of intent — Nov. 12:
On letter-of-intent signing day on Nov. 12 in one of the Redmond High classrooms, future Univer-sity of Washington fastpitch so� ball player Amirah Milloy sat next to Washington State University
baseball player to-be Kevin Calderhead. Future University of Wisconsin rower Saylor Martin also sat at the table wearing a red Badger T-shirt and was the � rst of the trio to place her John Hancock to paper.
5. Frontier has restored 99 percent of custom-ers’ FiOS services; no copper services have been restored — Sept. 22:
A construction crew working on the Redmond Way Stormwater Treatment Facility project on Sept. 20 cut through � ber and copper cables and disrupted Frontier Communications FiOS and copper services for phone, television and hi-speed Internet, as well as some 911 services.
� e crew caused the outage at 15802 Bear Creek Parkway at the corner of Bear Creek Parkway and Redmond Way, a� ecting about 6,000 residential and business customers.
6. Community meeting regarding mosque draws large crowd at Redmond City Hall — May 1:
It was standing-room only in the Redmond City Council chambers on April 30 as residents from Overlake and members of the Anjuman-e-Burhani Mosque gathered for a community meeting regarding a mosque proposed for an empty plot of land near Microso� .
� e meeting was the result of neighbors’ con-cerns about the possibility of the religious group building its new mosque at 15252 N.E. 51st St. — putting it in the middle of a residential neighbor-hood.
7. Resident concerned about mail the� from over� owing collection box — March 13:
In early March, Joanna Pine drove to the Bella Bottega shopping complex in downtown Redmond to drop something o� at one of the blue outgoing
United States Postal Service (USPS) mailboxes.But when she got there, she found she couldn’t
send out her mail because the box was already full.“I could reach my hand in there and pull mail
out,” she said about how over� owing the mailbox was. “I went back the next day and it was even fuller.”
8. Rape case of former Microso� employee dismissed — July 8:
A� er multiple continuations, the case against Vineet Kumar Srivastava, a former Microso� Corp. employee who was charged with second-degree rape of a Microso� janitor a year ago, was dis-missed.
9. Frontier Communications o� cials meet with Redmond customers to discuss outages — Sept. 25:
As Bret Larsen glanced at the screen displaying photos of the mangled underground cables, he noted, “It’s not a pretty sight.”
Melinda White added, “It’s a major catastrophe that happened in our network.”
On Sept. 24, the two Frontier Communica-tions executives addressed a crowd of about 100 Redmond residents and business owners about what happened at 9:30 a.m. on Sept. 20 and what the plan of action was to repair the unpleasant situation.
At about 7:40 a.m. on Nov. 3, a bottle bomb ex-ploded between two school buses parked at Emily Dickinson Elementary School and Explorer Com-munity School in unincorporated King County near Redmond.
Rori Shay has been a storyteller since she was a young girl.
She always had something to say and a little thing like literacy was not going to stop her. The recent Redmond transplant said when she was really young, she would tell her stories to her mother, who would write them down for her. And by the time she was able to read and write, there was not much stopping her.
“I would write stories on long car rides and read them to my first-grade class,” Shay said.
The 36-year-old East Coast native’s love for the written word has not faded as she has recently come out with a new young adult series. The first book in the series, “Elected,” was released in April and is Shay’s first published work. The
second book in the series, “Suspected,” will be re-leased in February 2015.
The Elected Series is a trilogy that follows 18-year-old Aloy, a young
woman liv-ing in the year 2185 who must masquerade her-self as a young man to take her father’s place as president of her country. While the trilogy is the story about a dystopian so-ciety, Shay said
there is also a romantic storyline — and a unique one at that as the love triangle involves a male
and female character both interested in a female character. In addition, Shay describes the books as futuristic science fic-tion as the world’s leaders have created laws and policies to deal with the state of the planet as a result of climate change.
And although the series falls under the young adult genre, Shay consid-ers it “crossover fiction” as readers from 13-40 years old can enjoy them.
The idea for the series came to Shay in 2011, when she was on mater-nity leave with her first child. She said she woke up one day with the idea and quickly wrote out an outline of the story.
Prior to The Elected Series, Shay was already interested in the environ-ment. While she was in college at the University

of Maryland for her undergraduate studies, she wrote a paper about her environmental con-cerns. In addition, her roommate at the time was an environmental science major.
“It was always a hobby,” she said.
Even though writ-ing has always been a passion for Shay — who received a master of business administration from George Washing-ton University — for now, it is more of a hob-by or a second job. Her first job is as a manage-ment consultant.
Second job or not, it is keeping Shay busy as she already has an idea for another stand-alone young adult book after she completes The Elected Series (she is currently working on the final book in the trilogy). Shay is working on publishing two picture books for children.
Shay said she feels energized and alive when she writes and it is a way she can express herself. She said she prefers writing fiction because it is fun to get inside her characters’ heads to figure out why they do what they do and say what they say.
“It gives you a better explanation of human nature,” she said about fiction writing.

RYPAC holds craft day at Open Kitchen
� e Redmond Youth Partnership Advisory Com-mittee (RYPAC) recently held a cra� day at the site of Open Kitchen, a ministry of Redmond United Methodist Church (RUMC) that o� ers meals to the community on Wednesdays.
Since Open Kitchen launched in November 2013, the ministry has served about 2,000 meals and this past summer, the group partnered with the city and Hopelink to provide 947 brown bag lunches for kids who depend on free and reduced lunches during the school year.
“Open Kitchen has shown us that there is a need for food here in Redmond and over this past year they have really stepped up to meet the need,” said Ken Wong, teen program administrator for the City of Redmond. “It was great that RYPAC was able to help out and our teens want to get back there again.”
Kristen Muscott, one of the founders of Open
Kitchen, said for those who would like to help, one thing they can use is grocery store gi� cards.
“� ese allow us to buy the perishables we need as we need them,” she said. “As you can probably guess, our goal is to not let any food go to waste. Gi� cards allow us � exibility and the ability to manage our refrigerator space.”

Firewood, Fuel& Stoves
NOTICEWashington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (re- ceipt) that shows the s e l l e r ’s a n d bu ye r ’s name and address and the date delivered. The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quan- tity upon which the price is based. There should be a statement on the type and quality of the wood.When you buy firewood write the seller’s phone number and the license plate number of the de- livery vehicle.The legal measure for firewood in Washington is the cord or a fraction of a cord. Estimate a cord by v isual iz ing a four-foot by eight-foot space filled with wood to a height of four feet . Most long bed pickup trucks have beds that are close to the four-foot by 8-foot dimension.To make a f i r ewood complaint, call 360-902- 1857.
