SUMMARY STATEMENT:
The Idaho Commission on the Arts administers the Public Art & Cultural Facilities grant which encourages local, public, and private support for feasibility studies, renovation, or construction
of performance, exhibition, or artist spaces, for capital purchases for those facilities, and for public art projects. Rotary Park has undergone a substantial rehabilitation over the
past two years, and is nearing completion. It is proposed that “functional” public art be incorporated into the park, such as decorative stairway railings or pavers.
The grant requires a 50-50 match. There is $2805 in the Public Art line in the FY15 Community Development budget that would be directed as local cash match for the project. The McCall
Improvement Committee has committed $4000 in matching funds, and the project was allocated $3195 from FY14 LOT. The City’s public art selection process would be used to solicit artists
and final design for the project. Delta James, City Planner, the Public Art Advisory Committee, and the McCall Parks Department would be responsible for project implementation. It is
expected the project would be completed by September 30, 2015.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve submission of a FY16 Public Art and Cultural Facilities grant to the Idaho Commission on the Arts and authorize the Mayor to sign all necessary documents.
