Keizer panel details utility‑box art program, approves Stacy design for installation

Keizer Public Arts Commission · September 16, 2026

Summary

The commission reviewed submissions and the application process for utility‑box art (including $200 design stipends and about $700 printing/installation costs) and voted to approve a utility‑box design by Stacy with requested edits and a planned location near Chemawa/Mulally.

During public comment and the presentation portion, the commission outlined how the utility‑box art program functions: a $200 stipend for the designing artist, roughly $700 per box for printing and installation, and site selection that tries to match themes to locations. Chair Laurie told a resident that Dawn is the contact point for proposals and that the commission could solicit themes or call for artists for specific boxes.

Committee members reviewed several submissions and agreed some pieces needed resubmission to meet template/aspect‑ratio requirements; they agreed to ask for resubmission rather than reject pieces outright. After discussion the commission moved to approve an artwork submitted by Stacy with the agreed changes (add seven wave elements and three stars and finalize placement near the Chemawa/Mulally intersection). The committee approved the motion and directed staff to finalize the exact box location and prepare printing/installation when funding and scheduling allow.
