Meeting called to order.
Minutes:
Cheryl Sullivan made a motion to approve as presented.
Chad Clark seconded, motion approved.
Railway Viaducts Update:
Cindy Ragland received a message from Antoine saying the proposal has been sent to corporate and is
still under by the bridges and public works team.
Southside Project Update:
Carol gault reported that to date we do not have an adopted plan for Public art including select sites for
on the Southside. Hope Reason has volunteered to do a Request for Proposals (RFP) for a public art
project for conversation purposes. Suggestions for public art include mural on the back of a building or a
project in Coleman Park. Staff hopes to come back to the boards next meeting with a draft RFP with
suggested locations for review.
The Southside encompasses 8 different neighborhoods, making up 1/3 of the City. The Planning
Department is short staffed at this time. Putting together a Plan to include such components as housing,
commercial, and public art is more than current staff can handle in a timely manner. We are looking at
working with a retired planner in the community to assist with developing a plan. We want to efficiently
use out time but not hurry through the process. Everyone involved wants a good plan.
The goal of the CCC goal is a five-year plan for public art city wide. However, at this time the proposal is
for an RFP for public art on one or two sites on the Southside, location to be determined. This could be a
part of the overall public art plan staff sees it at two separate goals.
