ART IN PUBLIC PLACES POLICY (Continued by the Planning Commission on August 11, 2003 to September 22, 2003.) Cynthia Nelson, Deputy City Manager for Development Services, provided an update on the issue and advised that the revised summary had been prepared in conjunction with the City Attorney's office. She outlined the major changes that had been made since the original draft and noted that the legal section would remain the same. Discussion was held regarding how the required amount would be determined and for what type of project, potential list of approved artists and criteria, notification to the business community, and Planning Commission representative to the Ad Hoc committee. The Commission expressed concern regarding who would make the selection of the art included in the project, the quality of art that would be selected, and if an art requirement was appropriate during a time of budget issues. It was noted that an art policy had been considered previously and no action had been taken. Ms. Nelson outlined the differences in what had been previously considered and what was now being proposed. She noted that the policy would direct the process to have art included in development only when discretionary actions are involved. Mike McGee, CSUF, commented that he had seen the draft and would encourage the Commission to request input from the art community. He offered his services to review the draft and suggested Jay Willis from USC and Richard Turner from Chapman University could provide beneficial input. He suggested that professional standards, criteria, and a list of recommended artists should be included. Ben Kaufman, Chief Assistant City Attorney noted that the first amendment does not allow the City to select what the developer would purchase when using their own funds. Discussion was held regarding whether the City should ask for an art contribution, current policy, and City Council direction. PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES 2 September 22, 2003
