Normandy Park is located in King County

The Seattle-Tacoma Land Company was organized in the mid-1920s for the purpose of developing 1,200 acres of land on the shores of Puget Sound between Seattle and Tacoma. The development was to be known as Normandy Park, a planned residential community with strict building codes and numerous restrictions. It was to be a community of distinctive architecture in the French Normandy style, and there was to be a yacht club, two community beaches and a golf course. 
    
In the late 1940s and early 1950s, Normandy Park was "discovered" and, within a few years, many fine homes were built. In a short time it became a vigorous community, so much so that the residents decided to incorporate the area into the City of Normandy Park in order to control their own destinies. As a result, the City of Normandy Park was incorporated on June 8, 1953. A city government was organized consisting of seven elected Council members, one of whom is selected as Mayor by the Council themselves and serves as chair of the Council. They serve unsalaried by choice. The City is classified in the revised Code of Washington as a "second class city" with a "council/manager form of government".
