The presenter, identified as the VP of design for Georgica Green Ventures, told the Municipal Arts Commission the building is fully leased and the developer solicited public-art proposals through a request-for-proposals process managed with ArtsWestchester. \"We had 18 entries,\" the presenter said, and the developer selected a proposal by a New Rochelle resident that uses hand-blown glass discs suspended in the lobby windows to cast colored light on the interior walls as daylight changes.

The presenter described technical considerations discussed with the artist: the work must not distract drivers, fragile materials should be protected behind glass, and the installation needs low maintenance. The presenter said the artist mapped designs for five windows and proposed hanging the glass discs from thin wires in the 30-inch-deep storefront windows so the pieces have depth and cast changing shadows. \"Because it's glass, and the color is a lot more colorfast than, like, any painted work...it's maintenance free,\" the presenter said.

Board members welcomed the proposal as locally sourced and visually appropriate for the North Avenue corridor. Commissioner comments noted the proposal's subtlety and connection to nearby buildings that also display local art.

Commission staff clarified that the presentation was informal and that Georgica must file a formal application with the building department; once filed the matter will be referred to the commission and receive a case number. Staff stated, \"You won't get the final CO until you satisfy the art betterment,\" explaining the developer must complete the paperwork and insurance requirements and then the board will review a submitted application or an installed-photo exhibit.

The presenter said the developer hoped the work could be completed before Thanksgiving but did not commit to a firm deadline; the commission does not require the board to review the finished installation before the certificate of occupancy process is completed if the application and documentation are submitted through the building department.

The commission’s chair, Marissa Bowen, called the item after the applicant described the existing canopy’s wind damage and presented the bank’s new standardized canopy and ATM design, including concrete anchor details intended to reduce future wind damage.

The applicant, Forrest Page of Agency Architects, said the canopy and ATM are KeyBank’s current standard and described structural improvements: \"It's a big thick pour of concrete that goes underground that it's bolted to so the wind does not damage these anymore.\" Page also showed prefabricated shop drawings and explained that the canopy includes illuminated internal lighting and signage on the support legs.

Commissioners asked for a site rendering; the applicant showed a site view and noted the new canopy would occupy the same location as the former structure. Technical advisor Joe Guillermo and Kevin Jimenez of the Department of Development assisted with locating the ATM on site imagery. The commission did not request additional material samples or changes to the design.

After discussion, a board member made a motion to approve the application; Michael Marrero seconded. Chair Bowen called for the vote; the motion passed with all voices in favor.

The applicant was told to coordinate with the building department on permit requirements prior to installation.
