This is an excellent opportunity for residents to meet with City representatives.

Planning Commission Public Hearing – April 20th
The Normandy Park Planning Commission will hold a public hearing on Thursday, April 20, 2023, at 7:00 pm. This public hearing will allow residents to comment on a draft ordinance that will amend the City’s Code with the intent to help promote economic development in the city. The proposed code amendments focus on rehabilitating the retail and office leasing experience and use in the city’s commercial areas. The ordinance also will propose amendments to improve regulatory code clarity for the redevelopment of commercial, mixed-use, and multifamily residential zones through the use of specialized density tools.
Want to know more specifics about this issue? I recommend reviewing the staff report and draft ordinance, which can be found on the City’s website. If you have any questions, please contact Community Development Director Nicholas Matz.

Temporary Signs in Normandy Park
From time to time, residents ask about temporary signs. I wanted to share some information about our regulations, things like what a temporary sign is, where your signs can and cannot be placed, and other regulations on signs per the City’s code. This will be a summary, so for all the rules, please see our Public Assistance Memo or contact the Community Development Department at 206.248.8260.

City Manager Report – October 4, 2024
Demo day for the Walker and Sequoia Creek project is coming soon. The City Council approved a contract in September to clear all the structures off the property. A Cooperative Watershed Management grant from the King County Flood Control District funds this work. Once fully complete, this exciting project will benefit the environment and create a passive park for residents to enjoy.
