2025 City Goals are being developed
On Saturday, January 25th, the City Council held its Annual Retreat to establish the 2025 City Goals. This meeting allows the City Council and staff to come together to determine what the City should focus on in the coming year. Are you interested in what the City Council is discussing? Here is a summary of the 2025 goals that are being developed.
- Evaluate City Hall and create a long-term plan for the building.
- Identify safety improvements needed on 1st Avenue and work to find funding for these projects.
- Focus on Community Engagement that will bring the community together.
- Improve Communications with the Public.
- Update the City’s Emergency Management Plan and provide educational opportunities for the public to learn more about emergency planning.
- Increase the City’s efforts in Legislative Advocacy.
- Work on improving and building the City’s Recreational Facilities.
These goals will be discussed and finalized in February. Stay tuned for more details about the work plan and timeline for accomplishing these goals.
EV Stations installed at City Hall Park
The City now has two EV (electric vehicle) Chargers operational at City Hall. These chargers, funded through a grant from PSE, are open to the public and are ready for use. There is a charge for using, so you will need the EV Connect App before you connect. Instructions on how to download the app and how to use it can be found at the charging stations. You can find the chargers in the parking area next to City Hall.
If you have any questions about this or other City topics, please email me at aarrington@normandyparkwa.gov. Have a great week!

Working Together for Safer Streets: Normandy Park’s Local Road Safety Plan
The City of Normandy Park is taking an important step toward making our roads safer for everyone. As part of the City Council’s 2025 Goals, we’re developing a Local Road Safety Plan (LRSP) to improve safety along our major, federally classified roadways. I want to share what this plan is all about—and how it will benefit our community. What Is a Local Road Safety Plan? A Local Road Safety Plan, or LRSP, is a strategic roadmap that cities use to identify safety issues and take action to reduce serious crashes and save lives. Each LRSP is unique, designed specifically for the community it serves, using local data and best practices in traffic safety. The plan examines where accidents occur or are likely to happen, and what we can do to prevent them. It helps us move away from one-size-fits-all solutions and instead focuses on what will truly make a difference for Normandy Park.

Honoring our Heroes: Normandy Park’s Blue Star Memorial By-Way. As we prepare to observe Memorial Day this weekend, I’d like to highlight a meaningful tribute in our community: the Blue Star Memorial By-Way in Normandy Park. The Blue Star Program pays tribute to all men and women who serve in the United States Armed Forces. We are proud to be home to one of these memorials in Normandy Park.
