Commission to develop stencil designs; staff to consider manufactured stencils for production
Summary
Commissioners agreed to bring stencil design ideas to the next meeting and to consider a mixed approach—some hand-cut pieces plus a set of manufactured, durable stencils—to support public art installations.
Commissioners discussed plans for a planned stencil workshop and decided to develop a short list of design ideas for staff to convert into manufactured stencils while reserving the option for a small, hands-on cutting session among commissioners.
Several commissioners said that text-based stencils (words) would be difficult to cut by hand and recommended ordering manufactured plastic stencils for durability and repeat use; others suggested producing a few handmade stencils as a commission signature. Staff noted that manufactured stencils can be produced quickly and affordably and recommended providing the vendor with finalized design files and size specifications.
Commissioners agreed that they would bring candidate emoji, icons and other stencil designs to the next meeting; staff will assemble designs, obtain vendor pricing and report back on options, timing and budget. No formal procurement or spending decision was made at this meeting.
