The Estacada Arts Commission approved a design by artist Vince for the Poetry in Public Places signs, with conditions to adjust layout for mounting bolts and to include required logos and documentary information.
Dave (commission member) moved to approve the design with requested revisions; a second was recorded and the motion carried. Commissioners asked Vince to provide a vectorized digital mock-up sized to the longest poem so the text can be legible on all installations.
During discussion members flagged practical constraints: the mounting bolts that may cross sign artwork, the size limits for lines and words per panel, and the need to include city and commission logos and a possible QR code. Vince agreed to reduce the mountainscape in the art to accommodate type and logos and to supply a digital file after receiving the largest poem to set type size. Dave volunteered to provide dimensions when he returns and to mock up a layout using the longest poem as the sizing template.
Commissioners also discussed visual choices such as symmetrical color bands and a subtle corner motif to represent a color wheel while keeping the poetry text prominent. The motion passed with recorded support; commissioners expected a digital proof before printing and a timeline that could allow a mock-up by the next meeting.
