The Commission is responsible for encouraging and aiding programs for the cultural enrichment of Normandy Park citizens.

Spring into the Parks
Join members of the Normandy Park Parks Commission on Saturday, March 26th, from 9:00 to noon for an ivy pull at Nist Park. We will work on removing ivy from trees and around the tree trunks. Bring your favorite pair of gloves and hand pruners if you have them. Otherwise, tools and gloves will be provided, as will coffee and snacks. Please bring a water bottle and dress for the weather. Hope to see you there!
City’s Permit Intake
We are now well into 2022 and construction season is fast approaching. The city has been hard at work processing permit applications for upcoming projects such as installing air conditioners, house remodels, and solar panel installations.

If you have any questions about these or other topics, please get in touch with me at aarrington@normandyparkwa.gov. Have a great week!
