| | | | | | | | BACKGROUND
Implementation of this policy is part of the 2020-2021 City Council goals, that establish criteria and guidelines regarding the placement of temporary and permanent art on City property.

| | | | | | | | DISCUSSION
At the meeting of July 8, 2021, the Parks, Recreation and Arts Commission reviewed the attached Public Art Donation Policy and recommended it be sent forward to the City Council for adoption.
The attached Public Art Donation Policy creates a definition for public art; provides a list of acceptable government speech topics; identifies the administration of donated public art; encourages both donated and private funding of public art; and establishes a review process and criteria for considering donated public art. |
| | | | | | | | FINANCIAL IMPACT
A Public Art Donation Policy will not have a financial impact to the City's General Fund. |
