Members of the Creative Placemaking Strategy Advisory Committee discussed next steps for a Public Art Review Process ad hoc committee and agreed staff will convene the group to develop a recommended review process.
Committee members said the ad hoc has not yet met and that existing materials (grant-review processes and planning-stage templates) could provide starting points. A presenter noted prior planning consultants had drafted a sample review process during the creative placemaking strategy work and that staff would look for those materials in county files.
The nut graf: Committee direction was procedural — research existing review processes, convene the ad hoc with the named volunteers, and prepare a draft process for the advisory committee to review at a future meeting.
Committee members asked staff to coordinate a meeting of ad hoc volunteers (listed in the minutes) and to gather examples from other jurisdictions and from the project’s planning-phase appendices. Members offered to help collect examples from arts councils in other counties and states.
Ending: Hannah Harrison (staff) will send an email to set the meeting and distribute background materials so the ad hoc can draft a review and approval process for public art and bring that draft back to the advisory committee.
