RECOMMENDED ACTION
Direct the City Attorney to prepare and authorize the City Manager and the
Clerk of the Council to execute a Reimbursement Agreement with the Charles
W. Bowers Museum Corporation for capital repair and replacement at the
Museum.
DISCUSSION
The Bowers Museum Corporation operates the City of Santa Ana owned Charles
M. Bowers Museum of Cultural Art pursuant to a 2001 Amended and Restated
Operating Agreement. In September 2005, the City Council and the
Redevelopment Agency approved and authorized several actions to facilitate
the $14 million expansion of the Bowers Museum. Construction of the
expansion area is well underway. In conjunction with the Museum's grand
opening in early 2007, it is desirable to paint the existing Museum to
match the expansion area and to make other repairs. Under the terms of
the Agreement, the City is responsible for providing funding for Capital
Repair and Replacement. The subject reimbursement agreement provides that
the Bowers Museum Corporation will coordinate the needed work and be
reimbursed by the City. The estimated cost for the painting and other
repairs shall not exceed $150,000.
