Commission readies RFP for permanent Cedar Street sculpture

Sandpoint Arts, Culture, and Historic Preservation Commission · August 11, 2026

Summary

Commissioners said they will release an RFP for a permanent Cedar Street sculpture at Cedar and 2nd and discussed siting logistics and concerns about existing bulb-outs and street projects that could affect placement.

The commission discussed an upcoming request for proposals for a permanent sculpture to be installed at Cedar and 2nd.

Chair Sosnes said she had held off on submitting the RFP materials but will provide them to staff; commissioners noted the sculpture should be permanent to avoid removal if the city later alters bulb-out street features. "Then there's people who wanna get rid of all the bulb out stuff. If they decide to get rid of those...then at least we have this piece that won't be taken away because it's on the corner of 2nd and Cedar," one commissioner said.

Staff and commissioners agreed to proceed with the RFP, to coordinate site logistics with public-works staff, and to identify design and installation timelines in coming weeks.
