Two Public Hearings scheduled for June 11th
The City Council regularly holds public hearings. These hearings give residents the opportunity to voice their thoughts and opinions before the City Council acts on certain topics. On Tuesday, June 11th, the City Council will hold public hearings on the following items:
- Parks, Recreation, Open Space, and Trails (PROST) Plan – The PROST is ready for City Council consideration. This plan assesses the current condition of the parks, examines the community needs and desires identified in the outreach, forecasts future needs, and most importantly, proposes improvements to city parks, recreation programs, and open spaces.
- Transportation Improvement Program – The Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) is a six-year financial program that describes the transportation projects that the City would like to accomplish during this period.
These plans serve as a guide and make us eligible for certain grants. Come to the meeting on Tuesday, June 11th at 7:00 pm in City Hall, and let your voice be heard!
Be a Part of the Citizen Budget Advisory Group
Come and join a subcommittee called the Citizen Budget Advisory Group, made up of Normandy Park community members and residents like yourself, to provide input on the development of the City’s 2025-2026 Operating and Capital Budget. Your input will help assemble the proposed balanced budget for the City Council’s review and approval. Meetings will take place at City Hall during the summer. Please email me if interested.

Summer is here, and we are all enjoying the fantastic sunny weather. When considering what adventure the family will have next, be sure to include a visit to all the Normandy Park parks. The City of Normandy Park has over 100 acres of parkland, all of which are open to the public. Currently, the City manages seven named parks, one named preserve, and a variety of open spaces. Each provides a variety of recreation amenities and experiences for the Normandy Park community to enjoy.

The City of Normandy Park is considering the construction of a new multi-use sport court. This court would focus on pickleball and basketball and is championed by the Normandy Park Metropolitan Parks District (or City Council).
Some fun facts about the Normandy Park Metropolitan Parks District (MPD):
It was formed in 2009 when voters approved the formation of a metropolitan park district.
The MPD has the authority to create, manage, control, improve, maintain, and acquire parks and recreational facilities.
The City Council of Normandy Park is authorized to serve as the board of metropolitan park commissioners.
The MPD can assess Normandy Park property owners a levy to support the City’s parks.
The City of Normandy Park owns, operates, and maintains all the parks. The MPD is important because it financially covers the costs of these efforts.
