ORAL COMMUNICATION: Mr. John Sanchez was interested in what the Commission does. It was suggested that the agenda be rearranged and the ordinance discussion be last because it would be better understood after discussing the other topics first. 4. REGULAR AGENDA: 4-A. (Formerly 4-E) Public Art Commission Administration and Enforcement Ms. Huston and Ms. Lee reported on their meeting with the Mayor. The three main points were: 1. Using the public art funds for the grants was in competition with the public arts use. 2. The public art commission is independent, not under control of the planning department and 3. That they are advisory, not an action commission. Mr. Wolfe stated that as soon as a project becomes official, the Public Art Commission should be notified. Ms. Huston asked for a list of all projects operating under a temporary certificate of occupancy. Ms. Huston mentioned that people are going directly to City Council and asking to bypass the process. She wants to know where they are letting this happen. Ms. Rosenberg said that it's the Mayor and planning's right to bypass the process but does an injustice to the public art enrichment and enjoyment. Mr. Wolfe mentioned that developers have dealt with enough commissions and do not want to deal with another one. Ms. Lee asked if there should be more of a connection between what their obligation is and what the check was. | PublicArtCommission/2008-02-13.pdf |
