The Portsmouth Public Art Committee voted to endorse final selection criteria for the public-art trust and recorded routine procedural actions at tonight's meeting.
Ernie moved to adopt the criteria; Lenny Mullaney seconded the motion and the committee approved it. Committee members said the criteria provide guidance for reviewing future proposals and will be shared with the trustees of the public-art trust. As one committee member summarized, the criteria are intended to clarify how proposals will be evaluated and to support a ramp-up of outreach and calls for proposals when schools are back in session.
The committee also approved the February minutes earlier in the meeting. A motion to accept the minutes was made and seconded; the chair called for the vote and committee members responded "Aye." Procedural business concluded with a motion to adjourn that was moved and seconded and carried.
