SUMMARY STATEMENT:
In February 2020, the McCall Redevelopment Agency (MRA) allocated funds to commission a professional artist to plan, design, fabricate and install public artwork within the existing
east downtown urban renewal area. A Call to Artists (Request for Qualifications) was issued, nine qualified Idaho artists responded, and Amy Westover (dba Westover Artworks LLC) was
unanimously selected for the project. The City, MRA and Westover entered into an Artwork Commission Agreement for the project scope in July 2020. In January 2021, the City unanimously
approved the “Mill Whistle” public art design concept for Brown Park at the recommendation of the Artwork Selection Committee, McCall Public Art Advisory Committee, and MRA.
Subsequently, MRA allocated an additional $45,000 to provide portable steam generation equipment needed to complete the project. The attached First Amendment to the Artwork Commission
Agreement, written by Elam & Burke, MRA’s legal firm updates the original agreement to incorporate these additional funds.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve the First Amendment to Artwork Commission Agreement by and between the McCall Redevelopment Agency, City of McCall and Westover Artworks, LLC and authorize the Mayor to sign
all necessary documents.
