SUMMARY STATEMENT:
In keeping with the City of McCall Public Art Policies, adopted by City Council June 29, 2012, a five-member volunteer selection committee recently reviewed qualifications from eighteen
(18) Pacific Northwest artists and chose three (3) finalist artists to invite to submit specific design proposals for public artwork to be installed along 2nd Street within Phase 1B
of the City’s Downtown Redevelopment Project. The attached letters of agreement establish proposal submittal requirements and a payment of $500 to each finalist artist as compensation
to create site-specific designs for artwork downtown. These specific design proposals will then be used to gain community input into final artwork selection, which will be brought before
City Council for approval. Their resumes are attached.
The Letter of Agreement template has been reviewed by the City Attorney and has been reviewed by each finalist artist:
Pete Goldlust, Eugene, OR
CJ Rench, Hood River, OR
Melissa Cole, Spokane, WA
The budget for the Downtown Public Art Project is $60,000 funded by carry forward from previous project cost savings, and City LOT and General Fund allocations.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve the Downtown Public Art Artist Agreements for Melissa Cole, Pete Goldlust, and CJ Rench, and authorize the Mayor to sign all necessary documents.
