Normandy Park City Manager’s Report for week ending May 26, 2023

Normandy Park is working on getting a KCLS Book Locker

City Staff has been working with the King County Library System (KCLS) staff to locate a 24-hour accessible book locker at Normandy Park City Hall. Think of the convenience of Amazon delivery—from the library! If we are successful, all types of KCLS materials can be requested and delivered to this facility for on-demand access for Normandy Park residents. The Normandy Park City Council will consider the agreement to make this new equipment a reality at its June 13th meeting.

If all goes well, residents can return a book to the box, pick up a new order from the locker, and then reserve another KCLS item online from a mobile device…all in one place and at one time! Stay tuned for more information.

June is Orca Action Month – Join the Celebration

Orca Awareness Month was created to bring together researchers, advocates, and orca lovers everywhere to raise awareness of the threats facing these magnificent animals and to celebrate the orcas of the Salish Sea.

In June, you can join virtual and live events to explore the profound relationship between watersheds, rivers, the Salish Sea, and the Pacific Ocean and their vital connection to the survival of the Southern Resident Orcas and the wild salmon they need to survive. Here is a link to the Orca Month website, and here is a link to the events calendar to explore the activities offered for all ages.
