Commission to contact Maple Square developer about mural; options include off‑site creation or school partnership
Summary
Commission members discussed contacting the Maple Square developer about a mural, insurance questions and whether students might create the mural on‑site or off‑site. Speaker 2 said they would reach out to the owner and copy commission members on follow‑up emails.
Members of the Accessibility Commission discussed a possible mural at Maple Square and next steps for outreach to the property owner. Speaker 2 said they had the developer’s name and would reach out to set up a conversation about whether the mural would be created on‑site or off‑site, noting insurance considerations.
Speaker 2 described options that could avoid insurance complications: have students paint the mural off‑site and then bring it to the location, or pursue an in‑house production that would mitigate insurance concerns. “I’m gonna contact him, see if we can get together,” Speaker 2 said, and indicated they would include relevant commission members on follow‑up emails. The group noted the project timeline ties to the developer’s spring start of work on that site.
Next steps: Speaker 2 will contact the developer and copy commission members on correspondence; commissioners offered to join follow‑up calls. No formal motion or vote was recorded on the mural.
