Common Questions
Does Normandy Park have a Tree Ordinance
The City of Normandy Park does not have a tree ordinance, but property owners and tree services do have requirements that pertain to tree removal. Property owners are not required to have a permit for cutting down trees on their private property unless the trees are in a critical area, on a city easement, or if the property owner desires to do land clearing or grading or filling. For more information please see NPMC 13.20.
