PublicArtCommission | 2005-02-24 | 2 | 4. Written Communications None. 5. Old Business A. Continued Discussion of Public Art Annual Plan - (Discussion/Action Item) Director Ota discussed that PAAC should prioritize issues that are most important in the Annual Plan. C Huston asked when the Plan should be presented to the City Council. Director Ota stated that it could be presented during July 2005 (new fiscal year). C Huston wanted to clarify that the Annual Plan being developed is for 2004-2005, six (6) months behind schedule. One issue that could be addressed would be to raise the 1% or $150,000 cap. CM Wolfe stated that the cap is unfair to smaller developers; since they pay one-percent and larger developers only pay $150,000. CM Rosenberg suggested that the Plan include short and long-term goals, including the PAAC's communication with non-profits. C Huston stated that she would like to move from draft-form of the Plan to a working document; this would include having agendas that reflect the Committee's top priorities. She went on to ask Staff to provide an easel and pad of large paper for PAAC to write down ideas; Staff stated that could be done. Director Ota explained that there is a discrepancy in the definition of the Public Art Allocation requirement for renovation projects. The building official is interpreting it technically and the two departments are not in agreement. RS Russi stated that the phrase in question is "50% of the replacement cost of the building" (30-65.3c). In doing research with the City Attorney's office and looking at other cities' ordinances, it appears that either an added definition or simpler, more direct language should be incorporated. Staff will come back to PAAC with samples once they are agreed upon by Building and Recreation Departments and the City Attorney's Office. - Mission Statement PAAC members discussed specific wording for Alameda Public Art Program's mission statement. VC Lee stated that the mission statement should include a short, punchy sentence with objectives. Staff will work to compile all suggestions and e-mail them to VC Lee and CM Rosenberg for further review. - List of Public Art Projects Director Ota stated that Staff would be meeting with Library Art Committee to discuss the Artist Agreement with Masayuki Nagase. In addition to the library, there are seven (7) upcoming projects that will be PAAC Meeting 2 Minutes February 24, 2005 | PublicArtCommission/2005-02-24.pdf |
