Title
Funding for Public Art at the Downtown Community Plaza (NB)
Explanation
On February 28, 2005, the City Commission heard a presentation from CRA Coordinator Sham Sundar that included $10,000 for public art at the Downtown Community Plaza. In order for the Art in Public Places Trust (APPT) to move forward with this project, up to three temporary members should be assigned to the Trust for this project. The APPT Trust Ordinance states "The commission with jurisdiction over the project may appoint up to three citizen experts for each project that is not associated with a particular building. All temporary members will have voting privileges only for the particular project for which they were designated or appointed and will serve on the trust only for the project for which they were designated or appointed". These temporary members should be citizens that best represent the downtown and neighboring community.
Fiscal Note
No fiscal impact at this time.
Recommendations
The City Commission appoint Mr. Sham Sundar, CRA Downtown Project Coordinator; and Mr. David Castine, Downtown Redevelopment Advisory Board member, as temporary members to the Art in Public Places Trust.
