CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: September 19, 2022
SUBJECT: Community Services Request for Road Closure for the Turkey Trot on November 24, 2022
PREPARED BY: Matt Milde, Recreation Supervisor
STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):

Provide Resident-Driven Community Services
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

By motion, approve the Community Services Department's request to implement road closures on Center Street and North Street for the proposed Healdsburg Turkey Trot on November 24, 2022.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:

Event organizers have notified all businesses within the vicinity of the proposed closure. City staff will remove the proposed closure as soon as it is safe to do so, to minimize the impact to holiday traffic and any surrounding businesses.

BACKGROUND:

The Healdsburg Community Services Department in partnership with Rotary Club of Healdsburg Sunrise is proposing a road closure on Center Street on November 24, 2022 for the annual Healdsburg Turkey Trot. City staff in the Police, Fire, and Public Works Departments have reviewed and conditionally approved the event route, and proposed closures and race logistics have been discussed and coordinated with the Police Department. City Council approval is needed for the proposed road closure request.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

The Healdsburg Turley Trot is a 5K fun run/walk through the streets of Healdsburg. The race raises money for the “Live Like Drew” Drew Esquivel scholarship, which supports Healdsburg student-athletes who aspire to attend college. 2022 will mark the eighth year the Turkey Trot has taken place in Healdsburg. The Community Services Department is working in partnership with the Rotary Club as a co-host of the event this year. The logistics will remain the same as previous years, and local organization will provide the opportunity for a greater percentage of the proceeds to go directly towards the Live Like Drew scholarship fund.

6.A
Packet Pg. 9
The Community Services Department, in partnership with the Rotary Club of Healdsburg Sunrise, is requesting City Council approve the following road closures from 4:30 a.m. – 11:00 a.m. on November 24, 2022. Organizers are proposing the following closures to provide adequate spacing for runners as they gather at the beginning/end of the race, while limiting impact to holiday traffic:
• Center Street, between North Street & Plaza Street
• North Street, between Healdsburg Avenue & East Street The following precautionary measures will ensure a safe and enjoyable event for race participants:
• City staff, Rotary Club volunteers, and Police Department staff, will be on duty to work the event.
• Event organizers will follow all COVID-19 safety guidelines issued by the California Department of Public Health and Sonoma County Health Department at the time the event takes place. Currently there are no restrictions for outdoor running events, but organizers will encourage mask wearing and distancing when appropriate. • Barricades with signage will be placed Center Street to delineate to the road closure perimeter.
• City staff will supply, set up, and remove the traffic control items (signs, barricades, traffic cones, vehicle blockades) for the closure.
• Course monitors and police officer will be utilized along the course to insure safe passage through intersections and areas where any potential interface with vehicular traffic. • Event organizers will abide by all required conditions within the event permit as stipulated by the Healdsburg Police, Fire, and Public Works Departments.

ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP:

The event is in the downtown corridor, accessible by transit, bicycle, and walking. Bike parking will be included to promote biking or waking to the start area as an alternative to driving.

Recology will provide trash, recycling, and compost receptacles with an emphasis on minimizing any unnecessary waste.

ALTERNATIVE:

Deny road closure request. Event organizers would need to utilize a different location for the start/finish area, which would alter the overall course.

FISCAL IMPACT:

As a co-host of the event, City staff in the Community Services, Police, and Public Works Departments will provide day-of even support. Staffing and associated event costs will be funded from approved department budgets. Rotary Club of Healdsburg Sunrise will provide additional volunteers and cover the costs of associated event elements.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

The project is categorically exempt pursuant to California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) Guidelines Sections 15304 Class 4(e) Minor Alterations to Land, and 15061(b), based on findings contained in the CEQA Guidelines that the project is “A minor temporary use of land

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: September 19, 2022
SUBJECT: Community Services Request for Road Closures for Dia de Muertos on October 30, 2022
PREPARED BY: Matt Milde, Recreation Supervisor
STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):

Provide Resident-Driven Community Services
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

By motion, approve the Community Service Department’s request to implement road closures on Plaza Street, Center Street and Matheson Street for the proposed Día de Muertos celebration on October 30, 2022.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:

The Community Services Department, in partnership with Corazón Healdsburg, is proposing a road closure of Plaza Street, Center Street and Matheson Street on October 30, 2022. All businesses within the proposed street closure have been notified about the event.

BACKGROUND:

The Community Services Department, in partnership with Corazón Healdsburg, is proposing a road closure of Plaza Street, Center Street, and Matheson Street on October 30, 2022 for the Día de Muertos event. City staff in the Police, Fire, and Public Works Departments have reviewed and conditionally approved the request. City Council approval is needed to implement the proposed street closures.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

The Día de Muertos celebration is free, open to the public, and an opportunity to come together as a community to celebrate and learn about the traditions of the Día de Muertos holiday. The growing success of the event over the past five years has laid the framework for this event to be an annual tradition in Healdsburg. The Community Services Department will once again be working alongside Corazón Healdsburg as a co-host. Event organizers are proposing the event take place on Sunday, October 30, 2022, from Noon – 6:00 p.m. at Plaza Park and in the surrounding downtown streets.

6.B
Packet Pg. 12
Since 2016, the Healdsburg Día de Muertos celebration has traditionally been scheduled on the last Sunday in October. Due to the popularity of the annual event, staff still anticipates that attendance numbers could be similar to previous years. As a result, the street closures are proposed to be extended on Matheson and Center Streets to provide additional space.

The Community Services Department, in partnership with Corazón Healdsburg, is requesting City Council approve the following road closures from 7am – 9pm on October 30, 2022:
• Plaza Street, between Healdsburg Avenue & East Street • Matheson Street, between Healdsburg Avenue and East Street • Center Street, between North Street & Healdsburg Police Department Driveway (130 feet South of Matheson)
The following precautionary measures will ensure a safe and enjoyable event for the community:
• City staff, Corazón staff, police Department, and private security will be on duty to work the event.
• Event organizers will follow all COVID-19 safety guidelines issued by the California Department of Public Health and Sonoma County Health Department at the time the event takes place. Currently there are no restrictions for the proposed event, but organizers will encourage mask wearing and distancing when appropriate. • City staff will supply, set up, and remove the traffic control items (signs, barricades, traffic cones, vehicle blockades) for the closure.
• A vehicle detour plan will be developed to safely direct vehicles around the event closures. • Medical support staff will be staged within the event layout. • The City will abide by all required conditions within the event permit as stipulated by the Healdsburg Police, Fire, and Public Works Departments.

ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP:

Recycling and compost receptacles will be dispersed throughout the event, with an emphasis on minimizing any unnecessary waste. Event organizers are working with food vendors to ensure they meet all current requirements for appropriate to-go food containers. Bike parking will be included in the event to encourage walking or biking to the event as an alternative to driving.

ALTERNATIVES:

Deny road closures. Staff anticipate attendance numbers will exceed the capacity for Plaza Park and therefore would require the event to take place in an alternate location.

FISCAL IMPACT:

As a co-host of the event, City staff in the Community Services, Police, Fire, and Public Works Departments will provide day-of even support. Staffing and associated event costs will be funded from approved department budgets. Corazón Healdsburg will provide additional staffing, volunteers, and cover the costs of associated event elements.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

The project is categorically exempt pursuant to California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) Guidelines Sections 15304 Class 4(e) Minor Alterations to Land, and 15061(b), based on findings contained in the CEQA Guidelines that the project is “A minor temporary use of land

Under State law (Public Utilities Code Sections 398.4 and 398.5), retail suppliers of electricity must annually (1) disclose the type of generation resources (e.g., hydroelectric, geothermal, solar, natural gas, etc.) provided to their customers in the form of a Power Content Label (“PCL”), and (2) report this same information, together with supporting documentation in verified form, to the California Energy Commission (“CEC”), in the form of a Power Source Disclosure Report (“PSD”). The intent of the report is to educate customers through the disclosure of accurate, reliable, and simple to understand information regarding the generation attributes of the energy being provided by their service provider.

The PCL includes the carbon content for each energy product sold to retail customers. The City of Healdsburg provides two products: 1) the Healdsburg Standard energy rate, which is a blend of market purchases as well as generation from City owned projects and 2) the Healdsburg Green Rate, which comprises renewable energy from plants located within the State of California.

The CEC’s due date for the 2021 PSD report was June 1, 2021, and staff compiled and filed the

6.C
Packet Pg. 15
annual PSD on time. The next step is for Healdsburg’s City Council to certify the PCL for Healdsburg, which includes the statewide average power mix as compared to Healdsburg’s energy products. Once approved by the City Council, each City electric customer will receive a copy of the 2021 PCL in accordance with the State’s regulation.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

The State’s regulations for the power source disclosure report include a requirement that the governing board of publicly owned utilities, at a public meeting, attest to the veracity of the annual power disclosure report and associated power content label. The table below lists the percentages for the City’s two energy products.

Predominately, Healdsburg electric customers purchase energy under the City’s “Standard” electric service product. This offering is a mix of both renewable, carbon free, carbon-based energy, and market purchases. As an alternative, Healdsburg electric customers may choose to purchase the City’s “Green Rate”, which provides energy sourced from renewable systems located within the State of California.

The 2021 drought significantly reduced large hydroelectric resources, with only 12% of the Standard Rate energy supply in 2021 compared to 22% in 2020. Another change in 2021 included bringing the floating solar project online, which increased solar to 10% of the Standard Rate energy supply. This solar combined with geothermal and eligible hydroelectric resulted in 45% of the Standard Rate’s energy coming from renewable resources. When including large hydroelectric, 57% came from no and low-carbon energy sources. In 2021, Healdsburg’s Green Rate comprised 100% geothermal power.

City staff continue to increase the amount of renewable and carbon free energy provided to Healdsburg’s electric customers, such as the Antelope project to develop additional solar energy based near Lancaster, California. This additional solar will increase the City’s overall renewable energy sources by roughly 8% and help to reduce GHG emissions associated with market purchases. The Antelope Solar project was delayed due to an issue with panels shipped from Asia. Most of the panels are now on site and available to construction crews. This project is forecasted for production starting in December of this year.

Additionally, the City finalized a contract with South Feather Power and Water for both large and small hydro resources within the Sierras. This contract provided a small amount of hydro energy in late 2021 and has been supplying Healdsburg with zero-carbon hydro generation throughout 2022. This project is expected to meet roughly 6% of Healdsburg annual energy needs and replace market purchases based mostly on natural gas generation.

6.C
Packet Pg. 16
The numbers shown in the PSD come from both City and Northern California Power Agency (NCPA) staff working collaboratively to confirm the accuracy and compliance of energy supplied in 2021. This effort included cross checking numbers from the California Independent System Operator, NCPA generation metering, validations of market purchases from unspecified sources, review of certified Renewable Energy Credits (REC), tracking of solar generation, and customer sales records. Through this iterative process, City staff is assured that the PSD and PCL provide the most accurate and correct information for the public.

Attached to this report is a resolution that, if adopted by Council, approves an attestation of the veracity of the 2021 PCL for Healdsburg’s Standard and Green electric service products, and directs staff to submit the report to the CEC.

ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP:

Providing the power content label to City electric customers helps to educate consumers on the

6.C
Packet Pg. 17
types of generation being used to meet their energy needs. Informing customers of their energy sources helps to steer policies regarding procurement of renewable and carbon free energy.

ALTERNATIVES:

As an alternative the City Council could choose not to follow the recommended action and provide further direction to staff.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact related to the recommended action.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

Pursuant to California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) and Title 14, the California Code of Regulations Section 15378(b)(2), continued administrative actions do not qualify as a “Project”. Therefore, no further CEQA or environmental review is required.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: September 19, 2022
SUBJECT: Appropriate $36,672 in the Parking in Lieu Fund for Parking Lot Rehabilitation
PREPARED BY: Larry Zimmer, Public Works Director
STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):

Maintain and Improve Infrastructure and Facilities
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

Adopt a Resolution amending the Fiscal Year 2022-2023 Budget increasing appropriations by $36,672 in the Parking in Lieu fund for Rehabilitation of Parking Lot C.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:

Not applicable.

BACKGROUND:

City owned public Parking Lot C on Healdsburg Avenue between North Street and Piper Street needs repair. The pavement surface is worn and needs to be sealed to extend its useful life.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

Prior to seal coating the surface the areas of broken pavement and low areas need to be repaired and replaced to provide a smooth and safe surface. After the seal coating has cured, the entire lot will be restriped, and red curbs will be repainted. This work requires upgrades to the ADA compliant parking space to meet current standards for a van accessible space, which necessitates the loss of one existing parking space. This project does not include replacement of the existing fencing or landscaping.

The City issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) that closed on August 30th, 2022 and no bids were received. In accordance with City purchasing ordinance staff negotiated a contract with SNS Asphalt Services in the amount of $31,888. A 15% contract contingency of $4,784 is recommended bringing the total project cost to $36,672.

ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP:

Not applicable.

6.D
Packet Pg. 22
ALTERNATIVES:

Council could choose to not fund the project and delay the rehabilitation for future date.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Parking Lot C is within the Parking In-Lieu boundary area and the proposed rehabilitation is an appropriate use of the Parking In-Lieu fees. Staff propose amending the Fiscal Year 2022-2023 budget to appropriate $36,672 in the Parking In-Lieu Fund for the rehabilitation of Parking Lot C.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

As this action involves the transfer of funds for the repair and maintenance of existing public parking lot involving no expansion of use, the action is exempt pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines 15301(c), Existing Facilities in that the contract and associated work are for repairs to an existing public facility. A Notice of Exemption will be prepared and posted with the County Clerk for 30-days.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: September 19, 2022
SUBJECT: Biennial Revisions to Local Conflict of Interest Code PREPARED BY: Raina Allan, City Clerk
STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):

Provide Effective Governance
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

Adopt a resolution rescinding Resolution No. 108-2020 and adopting a Revised Local Conflict of Interest Code.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:

Not applicable.

BACKGROUND:

The Political Reform Act requires local governments to adopt and promulgate Local Conflict of Interest Codes. The Act further requires government agencies to conduct biennial reviews of their Codes by October 1st of even-numbered years to ensure that the Code accurately designates appropriate positions and disclosure categories.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

The Local Conflict of Interest Code has been reviewed by the various City Departments, the City Manager, City Attorney and City Clerk. Staff recommends that Council amend the City of Healdsburg's Conflict of Interest Code, as follows:
• Revise the List of Designated Filers to add new designated positions and reflect job title changes.

The proposed revisions to the existing Local Conflict of Interest Code are shown in the attached resolution with deletions as strikethroughs and underlined additions.

ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP:

Not applicable.

6.E
Packet Pg. 26
ALTERNATIVES:

The Council could opt not to revise the Conflict of Interest Code as recommended by staff. In that event staff requests Council’s direction on the desired revisions, if any.

FISCAL IMPACT:

No fiscal impact is expected from the proposed revisions to the Conflict of Interest Code.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

Pursuant to Title 14, the California Code of Regulations, Section 15378(b)(5) of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) guidelines, the proposed action is an administrative activity of the City that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes to the environment; and therefore, is not a project for purposes of CEQA.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: September 19, 2022
SUBJECT: Overnight Parking Restrictions on Exchange Avenue PREPARED BY: Matt Jenkins, Police Chief
STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):

Maintain and Enhance Public Health and Safety
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

Adopt a Resolution imposing overnight parking restrictions on Exchange Avenue.

BACKGROUND:

Exchange Avenue has been a source of numerous complaints about vehicles parked for extended periods of time, with frequent violators moving their vehicles only after being marked for 72- hour abandoned vehicle abatement.

At the June21, 2022 City Council meeting, Council asked to place on a future agenda a discussion on overnight parking on Exchange Avenue That discussion was held at the August 1, 2022 meeting. During the August 1st meeting, City Council provided direction to staff to bring a resolution back to Council that would prohibit overnight parking on Exchange Avenue.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

The City currently has three locations that have overnight parking restrictions: the Corporation Yard, the Healdsburg Community Center, and the dead-end of Sunnyvale Drive. Both the Corporation Yard and the Community Center prohibit overnight parking, and the end of Sunnyvale Drive prohibits parking between sunset and sunrise.

The Healdsburg Municipal Code section 10.56.010 (No Parking Areas) authorizes the City Council to designate an area as no parking by resolution. Upon adoption of a resolution, appropriate signage must be placed indicating the restrictions.

Based on Council direction, staff are proposing an overnight parking restriction that would apply to both sides of Exchange Avenue from Healdsburg Avenue to Adeline Way. Staff recommend that parking be prohibited between the hours of 2AM and 6AM, a timeframe consistent with many other jurisdictions in California.

6.F
Packet Pg. 37
Imposing overnight parking restrictions on Exchange Avenue will displace vehicles that will likely need to park elsewhere, and it is not known what other locations may see an increase in lawful or unlawful parking as a result.

Based on prior direction from Council, the proposed resolution prohibiting overnight parking would be in effect until The Randall (the Mill District affordable housing site formerly known as The Exchange) is occupied by tenants, which is anticipated to be early next year.

Staff is prepared to install the appropriate signage once the resolution is adopted. Placement of signs will require coring of the sidewalk at approximately 16 locations along with placing of the poles and mounting the signs. This work is estimated to take 3 working days for a 2-person crew. The future removal of the signs will require concrete patching of the sidewalks. Staff believes that this approach is preferable to installing temporary signs that could more easily be moved or displaced. Once the signs are installed, Police Department patrol officers will patrol the area and enforce the restrictions through citations and/or towing as appropriate.

ALTERNATIVES:

City Council could choose to change the parking restrictions, including adjusting the timeframe of the parking restrictions and/or which sides of the street are included. Any adjustments to the time frame could delay the installation of the signs and subsequent enforcement.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The sign materials cost will be approximately $3000 and be absorbed within the Streets operating budget. In the event of a large vehicle, such as a bus, RV, or a tractor-trailer, needs to be towed, the Police Department would incur significant towing fees, likely over $3,000 per tow.

The tow fees would be absorbed by the Police Department’s operating budget.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

The regulation of overnight parking on Exchange Street involves the operation and permitting of an existing public facility that will involve negligible or no expansion of use and is therefore categorically exempt from further review under the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to Sections 15301(c) and 15321(a) of the CEQA Guidelines.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: September 19, 2022
SUBJECT: Adoption of Resolution Authorizing Remote Meetings PREPARED BY: Raina Allan, City Clerk
STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):

Provide Effective Governance
Maintain and Enhance Public Health and Safety
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

Adopt a Resolution authorizing remote meetings of the City Council and other legislative bodies.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:

The City has made and continues to engage in extensive outreach to the community regarding the City’s response to COVID-19, including updates at public meetings.

BACKGROUND:

On or about March 4, 2020, as part of the State of California’s response to address the global COVID-19 outbreak, Governor Gavin Newsom declared a State of Emergency to make additional resources available, formalize emergency actions already underway across multiple state agencies and departments, and help the state prepare for broader spread of COVID-19 following one official COVID-19 death.

When the COVID-19 pandemic started, local agency boards struggled to conduct their meetings in compliance with the Brown Act’s public accessibility requirements while still abiding by stayat-home orders. As a result, Governor Newsom signed Orders N-25-20, N-29-20, and N-35-20 to grant local agencies the flexibility to meet remotely during the COVID-19 pandemic. These orders expired on September 30, 2021.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

On September 16, 2021, Governor Newsom signed into law AB 361 – Brown Act: Remote Meetings During Emergencies. AB 361, codified at Government Code Section 54953(e)(1)(B), amended the Brown Act to allow public agencies to allow local legislative bodies to continue meeting by teleconference during a gubernatorial proclaimed state of emergency if the local

6.G
Packet Pg. 41
legislative body determines, by majority vote, that as a result of the emergency, meeting entirely in person without restrictions would present imminent risks to the health or safety of attendees.

By adopting the proposed resolution, the Council would, on behalf of the City Council and all other legislative bodies formed by the Council, make the findings required by AB 361 to meet remotely. Because the Council is required to make these findings every thirty days, staff will place a version of this resolution on the consent calendar at all subsequent meetings, until the Council decides that meeting fully in person will no longer pose an imminent risk to the health or safety of attendees.

The resolution was amended at the February 22, 2022, City Council meeting and further amended at the March 21, 2022 City Council meeting, to amend public meeting protocol in response to the latest COVID-19 conditions, as directed by the City Council.

ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP:

This section is not applicable.

ALTERNATIVES:

Because the Governor’s Order authorizing online meetings has expired, if the Council does not adopt the proposed resolution, the Council should immediately return to in-person meetings.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is not a fiscal impact as a direct result of this action.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

Pursuant to Title 14, the California Code of Regulations, Section 15378(b)(5) of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) guidelines, the proposed action is an administrative activity of the City that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes to the environment.

PUBLIC MEETING COVID-19 PROTOCOLS

FOR THE CITY OF HEALDSBURG
SCOPE: These protocols shall apply to all public meetings held in the Council Chamber located at Healdsburg City Hall, 401 Grove Street, Healdsburg, California, by the City Council and by any and all boards, committees and commissions created and/or appointed by the City Council.

APPLICABILITY: These protocols shall apply to all participants, including members of the public, elected officials, appointed members of all boards, committees and commissions, city staff, consultants, applicants, contractors, and any other person or individual attending or participating in a public meeting in the Council Chamber.

In addition to these protocols, the City of Healdsburg will follow all laws, regulations, policies, and orders from all relevant public agencies, including the Center for Disease Control, California Department of Public Health, CalOSHA, and the Sonoma County Public Health Officer.

PURPOSE: The City intends to implement a hybrid public meeting format to allow all participants of a public meeting in the Council Chamber to participate either in-person or remotely via teleconference in a manner consistent with provisions of the Ralph M. Brown Act. Due to the fact that all participants of a public meeting that choose to participate in-person in the Council Chamber will therefore be in a confined indoor space and, the period of confinement will more likely than not be longer than 15 minutes, the City is adopting these protocols to protect the public health, safety and general welfare and thereby limit the potential risks associated with COVID-19.

COMMITMENT TO PUBLIC PARTICIPATION: None of the protocols established herein are intended to limit public participation by participants of a public meeting in the Council Chamber in any way; indeed, the intent is to protect the statutory and constitutional rights of participants appearing before the legislative bodies of the City of Healdsburg, while protecting the public health, safety and general welfare. Any participant of a public meeting that desires to participate in-person in the Council Chamber that is unable or unwilling to comply with the inperson attendance protocol outlined below, or otherwise chooses not to participate in-person in a public meeting in the Council Chamber, will have the right and ability to participate in a public meeting in the Council Chamber remotely via teleconference in a manner consistent with provisions of the Ralph M. Brown Act.

IN-PERSON ATTENDANCE PROTOCOL:

1. Social Distancing and Occupancy Limits: The occupancy limit in the Council Chamber will be reduced by at least 50%.
a. Due to limited capacity, participants who indicate they are only interested in a specific item may be asked to wait outside the Council Chamber until their item is called on the agenda.
b. City staff will monitor occupancy within the Council Chamber to ensure proper social distancing is maintained. All participants of a public meeting permitted entry into the Council Chamber shall obey all directions from City staff provided to ensure proper social distancing is maintained. Any participant of a public meeting permitted entry into the Council Chamber who fails or refuses to obey the directions

6.G.b

from City staff provided to ensure social distancing, following one or more warning(s) from an appropriate City official, shall leave the Council Chamber upon instruction from an appropriate City official.
c. City staff and outside consultants to the City will, as appropriate or directed by the City Manager, participate in the public meeting remotely via teleconference.

2. Enforcement: In the event a participant of a public meeting in the Council Chamber refuses or fails to obey a decision, direction or instruction of an appropriate City official issued pursuant to these In-Person Attendance Protocols, the Chief of Police, or his or her designee, may in his or her discretion, or at the direction of the City Manager or the Presiding Officer of the public meeting, take appropriate and reasonable steps to enforce the decision, direction or instruction of the appropriate City official and/or remove the offending participant from the Council Chamber. Additionally, the Presiding Officer of the public meeting may, in his or her discretion, suspend and adjourn the public meeting and/or clear the Council Chamber of all participants in the event of a disturbance and/or disruption to the public meeting, and thereafter reconvene the public meeting once the matter is resolved.

CLEANING PROTOCOL: The Council Chamber shall be professionally cleaned after each public meeting. City staff will additionally use an electrostatic cleaner to disinfect the Council Chamber after each use.

AIR FILTRATION: Air control settings in the Council Chamber will be adjusted to allow for maximum fresh air flow during public meetings. When conditions allow, doors may be left open to facilitate additional fresh air circulation.

DISTRIBUTION OF PROTOCOLS TO PARTICIPANTS: A copy of these protocols shall be published and posted on the City’s website and shall be made available at the entry to the Council Chamber for distribution to all participants of a public meeting seeking to gain entry to the Council Chamber.

CHANGES TO PROTOCOL: The City Council may, from time to time, amend, modify, suspend and/or terminate and repeal all or any portion of these protocols as it may determine to be appropriate and necessary in consideration of changes in conditions or the need to protect the statutory and constitutional rights of participants appearing before the legislative bodies of the City of Healdsburg, while protecting the public health, safety and general welfare.

CITY OF HEALDSBURG

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: September 19, 2022
SUBJECT: 2nd reading of the Healdsburg 2022 Electrification Reach Code PREPARED BY: Terra Sampson, Utility Conservation Analyst STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):

Pursue Initiatives that Promote Environmental Stewardship Maintain and Enhance Public Health and Safety
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

Pass an Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Healdsburg amending section 15.04.080 of the Healdsburg Municipal Code.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:

During the development and adoption of the City’s current reach code, the City held several public meetings that included public comment. The City Council also discussed the reach code, and the public was permitted to comment, during the February 7, 2022 Council meeting. The City posted notice of the September 6th public hearing and the September 19th meeting, the public provided comment during the September 6th hearing and will be permitted to comment during the September 19th meeting, and the City updated the City’s website for this item.

BACKGROUND:

Local governments can adopt optional local building code amendments, known as “reach codes”, that exceed state code standards. Cities and Counties can adopt amendments to the Energy Code (Title 24, Part 6) and California Green Building Standards CALGreen (Title 24, Part 11) codes to meet local environmental goals.

On December 16, 2019, the City Council of the City of Healdsburg passed Ordinance No. 1196 to adopt a local reach code. The City’s existing reach code will expire with the current building code cycle on December 31, 2022. To continue to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions associated with new construction, the City now needs to adopt a replacement reach code that will go into effect on January 1, 2023, in alignment with the new building code cycle.

At the September 6th Council meeting, the City Council adopted, for first reading only, the proposed revised reach code.

8.A
Packet Pg. 47
GHG Emissions
In the upcoming code cycle, the City has forecasted the construction of approximately 360 single family and multi-family dwelling units, a combination of market-rate and affordable housing.

Below, the table quantifies the estimated avoided Greenhouse Gases (“GHG”) emissions of a 2022 code compliant home that is all-electric.

Annual GHG Emissions Avoided per home in metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent All-Electric Building
Annual GHG Emissions
Avoided per dwelling
(MTCO2e)
Annual GHG Emissions
Avoided for all dwellings
(MTCO2e)
90 Single Family Dwellings 0.723 65.07
270 Multi-Family Dwellings 0.374* 100.99
166.06
*According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration 2015 Residential Energy Consumption Survey, apartments use 52% of the energy used in a single-family home. This factor is applied to the single-family savings estimate in lieu of the Statewide Reach Codes Program analysis, which is not available for multi-family construction at this time.

If all new homes in 2023-2025 are built as all-electric, it would avoid 166 MTCO2e of emissions annually. For context, the floating solar project saved 1,249 MTCO2e in 2021, the Recology’s electric garbage truck is estimated to avoid 65 MTCO2e per year, energy efficiency programs saved 37 MTCO2e in 2021, and the Sonoma County Transit electric bus that services Healdsburg is estimated to avoid 30 MTCO2e per year.

City Council Direction
Staff presented reach code options at the February 7, 2022 City Council meeting. At the meeting, City Council directed staff to develop an ordinance to continue the building electrification requirements for electric space and water heating but allowing natural gas for cooking and decorative fireplaces for low rise residential and non-residential newly constructed buildings.

Additionally, City Council directed staff to add pool and spa systems in the building electrification requirements, which are exempt in the City’s current reach code. The table below shows the estimated GHG emissions from the exceptions per dwelling, if all new dwellings were to use the exception, and if a standard percentage of dwellings used the exception (based on historical numbers for California and the Pacific West). The standard percentage of homes that would use the exceptions significantly reduces the impact of emissions maintained in new residential construction; however, the numbers below are estimates and more or fewer homes could opt to use the exception resulting in changes to the net GHG savings.

*Assumes 73% of single-family dwellings use the exception, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration Residential Energy Consumption Survey on fuels used for selected end uses in 2020 in California. Assumes no affordable multi-family dwellings use the exception.

Affordable housing in Healdsburg is expected to be all-electric to take advantage of cost savings from not installing natural gas infrastructure and of health and safety benefits from eliminating combustion appliances.
**Assumes 7% of single-family dwellings use the exception, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration Residential Energy Consumption Survey on natural gas fireplaces in 2020 in the Pacific West. Assumes no affordable multi-family buildings use the exception. ***Removed as an exception in the 2022 Reach Code. Assumes 4% of single-family dwellings use the exception, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration Residential Energy Consumption Survey on heated swimming pools in 2020 in the Pacific West. Assumes no affordable multi-family buildings use the exception. Not applicable to all homes or an average home due to very high energy consuming activity.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

The City Council adopted the proposed ordinance, for first reading only, at the September 6, 2022 Council meeting. The proposed ordinance requires electric heating and water heating appliances in newly constructed buildings but allows for gas cooking and decorative fireplaces.

Space heating and water heating accounts for approximately two-thirds of average residential energy use. Requiring these uses to be electric results in a measurable reduction of overall energy consumption and GHG emissions. A single family all-electric code compliant home is estimated to save 12 MMBTU of energy annually as compared to a standard mixed fuel code compliant home.

To meet increased demands for both transportation electrification and building electrification, Healdsburg’s electric utility is developing and contracting for new renewable and low-carbon energy sources. Specific to building electrification, the added heating loads are likely to occur during the winter and night-time hours. These periods typical have large energy supplies and can accept the new energy demands of space heating. In any case, efficient electrification (transition

8.A
Packet Pg. 49
by using high-efficiency appliances) should be incentivized to assure the best use of clean energy sources.

Proposed Reach Code
The proposed reach code applies to newly constructed buildings and buildings determined to be substantially remodeled. Based on City Council direction on February 7, 2022, the reach code ordinance for the City of Healdsburg would have the following standards and requirements:

Summary of proposed Reach Code requirements and standards Building Type Requirements and Standards
New Residential Buildings
(single family and multi-family)
Requires all-electric building for: space heating, water heating, clothes drying, pool and spa heating equipment
Exceptions:

Natural gas can be used for cooking and decorative direct-vent sealed-combustion type fireplaces
Attached accessory dwelling units are exempt, if using the existing primary dwelling’s mixed fuel system
Projects required to correct existing health, sanitary or safety code violations
Mitigation Measure:

Pre-wiring for electric appliances is required where natural gas appliances are used
New Non-Residential Buildings
Requires all-electric building for: space heating, water heating, clothes drying, pool and spa heating equipment
Exceptions:

Natural gas can be used for cooking and decorative direct-vent sealed-combustion type fireplaces
Projects required to correct existing health, sanitary or safety code violations
Essential service and public facilities (i.e., fire or police stations) may apply for exemption
Non-residential buildings may apply for exemptions under certain conditions
Mitigation Measure:

For all exemptions, natural gas appliance locations must be electrically pre-wired for future appliance installation when feasible
The California Energy Commission (CEC) has concluded that the all-electric requirement does not constitute an energy efficiency or conservation standard and is outside their scope, and that the all-electric requirement amendments be made in Part 11 of Title 24, called the California Green Building Standards Code (CALGreen). The CEC reviewed the draft ordinance on August 23, 2022 and determined that it does not fall within their jurisdiction. The proposed amendments

8.A
Packet Pg. 50
outlined above will be applied to the 2022 CALGreen. Buildings will still be required to meet the standards set forth in all parts of the 2022 California Building Standards Code as adopted by the City of Healdsburg, including the California Energy Code.

Cost Effectiveness
The California Energy Codes & Standards available studies present the research and cost effectiveness analysis of various building prototypes with different reach code options. However, cost effectiveness is not a requirement for amendments to CALGreen.

In 2019, the City had the cost-effectiveness analyses performed for Healdsburg’s electric rates, which differ from the investor-owned utility rates in California. The 2019 analyses found that it was cost-effective to construct all-electric buildings compared to the 2019 Standards Alternative Calculation Method (ACM) baseline.
2022 state-wide results are currently available for single-family homes and are shown below.

All-electric buildings are cost-effective under the 2022 code in part due to 1) cost savings experienced upfront in the construction phase by avoiding the cost to install natural gas infrastructure, 2) the 2022 code prescriptively required heat pumps for space heating and water heating, and 3) the 2022 code requirement for pre-wiring for all-electric appliances in residential mixed-fuel buildings.
***The results above are based on investor-owned utility rates, which are higher than the Healdsburg electric rates.

The results are also based on state-wide electric emissions, which Healdsburg electric emission rate is lower than the state average.

The City had the cost-effectiveness analyses for the 2022 code modified for Healdsburg’s electric rates. All-electric code compliant new construction was found to be feasible and cost effective for the single-family prototypes.

Increased energy efficiency, high efficiency heat pump water heaters, and solar also increase cost-effectiveness, particularly for on-bill savings. New buildings are encouraged, but not required, to select higher efficiency appliances when possible.

Next Steps
If adopted by City Council on September 6 and September 19, staff will submit the proposed reach code to the Buildings Standards Commission (BSC). This Ordinance shall become effective upon the date the California Building Standards Commission (CBSC) accepts the

8.A
Packet Pg. 51
ordinance for filing, but in no event before January 1, 2023.

ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP:

Healdsburg’s two largest producers of GHG emissions are the transportation sector and the building sector. The current reach code has reduced GHG emissions associated with new buildings and substantially remodeled buildings. Continuation of a policy to require all-electric buildings will support the Council’s goals to reduce GHG emissions and stem climate change.

ALTERNATIVES:

The City Council could choose to modify various aspects of the staff recommendations to accommodate a more precise application. This could include an all-electric reach code with different exemptions.

No Action: The City Council could direct staff to not pursue a replacement for the existing reach code and rely on state regulations for the control of GHG emissions. As the current and proposed building codes do not entirely require building electrification, this alternative would not achieve the Council’s goals of reducing GHG emissions. The City Council could therefore provide further direction to staff on how to achieve an equivalent GHG reduction and meet the Council’s climate goals.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Staff time to develop this program is within existing approved budgets. Staff will require support from qualified consultants experienced in the implementation and enforcement of building electrification policies over the next code cycle. Costs to implement and enforce the requirement are not expected to exceed $30,000 and are planned to be funded with proceeds from the sale of Cap-and-Trade greenhouse gas allowances over the three-year code cycle.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

The City Council finds, pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), that this ordinance is exempt from the requirements of CEQA on the grounds that these standards are more stringent than the State green building standards, there are no reasonably foreseeable adverse impacts and there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment.

This ordinance is also exempt under CEQA Guidelines Sections 15307 and 15308 on the grounds that: a) the City, as a regulatory agency, is authorized to amend the Energy Code and Green Building Standards Code; b) this ordinance assures the maintenance and protection of the environment by amending the Green Building Standards Code to impose more stringent allelectric energy requirements for future building; and c) the Ordinance will institute regulatory requirements intended to protect the environment and natural resources, as the Ordinance will require the installation of less natural gas infrastructure and reduce the amount of GHG gas emissions in the City that are produced from buildings, and reduce the risk of catastrophic infrastructure failure, including explosions and fires caused by breaks and leaks in the natural gas distribution system as a result of upset conditions due to deferred maintenance or following an earthquake.

NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of the City of Healdsburg ordains as follows:

SECTION 1: PURPOSE
The purpose of this chapter is to modify the applicable provisions of the 2022 California Green Building Standards Code (Title 24, Part 11) of the California Code of Regulations that apply to newly constructed buildings, and to enhance long-term public health and welfare by contributing to the overall reduction of greenhouse gas emissions associated with natural gas transport and combustion. The energy standard provisions referenced in this chapter are designed to achieve the following objectives:

8.A.a

Attachment: Ordinance (3759 : 2022 Electrification Reach Code (Second Reading)) Ordinance No.

Page 3 ends

(1)Reduce consumption of natural gas in the City of Healdsburg; (2)Reduce the risks associated with transporting natural gas in City of Healdsburg; (3)Reduce greenhouse gas emissions associated with use of natural gas; (4)Improve indoor air quality and occupant health;
(5)Ensure that newly constructed buildings use all-electric appliances and equipment to meet the efficiency standards set forth in the state energy codes.

SECTION 2. FINDINGS
The City of Healdsburg incorporates the findings above by reference and adopts these additional findings.

1. Human activities, such as burning natural gas to heat buildings, releases greenhouse gases into the atmosphere and causes an overall increase in global average temperature. An increase in global average temperatures causes more extreme and frequent weather events.

Reducing the number of gas fueled appliances will reduce the amount of natural gas that is burned, thus reducing the amount of greenhouse gases emitted into the atmosphere.

2. The City is in Climate Zone 2 as established in the 2022 California Energy Code.

The City, on average, experiences an approximate annual rainfall of 40 inches. This rainfall can normally be expected between October and April. During the winter months, the City may experience periods of heavy rain, which causes local flooding, erosion and contributes to slope instability. Severe flooding events have already resulted in damage to City infrastructure including significant flooding in downtown in December 2014 and flooding of the wastewater treatment plant in February 2019.

3. The City of Healdsburg is prone to drought conditions in which extended periods of time with little to no precipitation has led to decline in available water supplies. The current multi-year drought in California caused Healdsburg to update the water shortage contingency plan in 2022 and implement water restrictions. Droughts may dry out wildland vegetation, potentially increasing the risk of wildfire.

4. The City of Healdsburg is subject to ground tremors from seismic events, as the City is located in an active seismic area, near the Rodgers Creek, Maacama, Healdsburg, and San Andreas fault lines, where there is a high risk of earthquakes. The elimination of natural gas appliances in new dwellings would reduce the hazards associated with gas leaks during seismic events.

5. The City of Healdsburg is situated along a wildland-urban interface and has moderate to high wildfire hazard severity zones surrounding the city limits and is extremely vulnerable to wildfires and firestorms. Human activities releasing greenhouse gases into the atmosphere cause increases in worldwide average temperature, drought conditions, dry

8.A.a

Page 4 ends

vegetative fuel, and length of fire seasons - all of which contribute to the likelihood and consequences of wildfire. Healdsburg experienced threatening fires during the 2017 Pocket and Tubbs Fire, 2019 Kincade Fire, and 2020 Walbridge Fire.

6. Both electric and natural gas service are subject public-safety power shutdowns during emergencies, such as wildfires. During the 2019 Kincade Fire, many Sonoma County residents experienced shutdowns. Restoring natural gas service is more complex than restoring electric service and requires individual home and business safety inspections; and therefore, natural gas service restoration can be significantly delayed compared to restoration of electric service.

These climatic and geologic conditions, along with the greenhouse emissions generated from structures in both the residential and nonresidential sectors, requires local amendments to the green building standards established in the 2022 California Buildings Standards Code.

SECTION 3: APPLICABILITY
The provisions of this chapter shall apply to all construction projects defined below as a “Newly Constructed Building.”
SECTION 4: CODE AMENDMENTS
Section 15.04.080 (California Energy Code amendments) of Chapter 15.04 “Construction Codes” of the Healdsburg Municipal Code is hereby repealed and replaced with Section

localenergycodes.com California Energy Codes & Standards | A statewide utility program 2022-09-09 1 Introduction
The California Codes and Standards (C&S) Reach Codes program provides technical support to local governments considering adopting a local ordinance (reach code) intended to support meeting local and/or statewide energy efficiency and greenhouse gas reduction goals. The program facilitates adoption and implementation of the code when requested by local jurisdictions by providing resources such as cost-effectiveness studies, model language, sample findings, and other supporting documentation.

The California Building Energy Efficiency Standards Title 24, Part 6 (Title 24) (CEC, 2019) is maintained and updated every three years by two state agencies: the California Energy Commission (the Energy Commission) and the Building Standards Commission (BSC). In addition to enforcing the code, local jurisdictions have the authority to adopt local energy efficiency ordinances—or reach codes—that exceed the minimum standards defined by Title 24 (as established by Public Resources Code Section 25402.1(h)2 and Section 10-106 of the Building Energy Efficiency Standards). Local jurisdictions must demonstrate that the requirements of the proposed ordinance are cost-effective and do not result in buildings consuming more energy than is permitted by Title 24. In addition, the jurisdiction must obtain approval from the Energy Commission and file the ordinance with the BSC for the ordinance to be legally enforceable.

This report is an addendum to the 2022 Single Family New Construction Cost-effectiveness Study modified to accurately represent the City of Healdsburg, California. The study analyzes cost-effectiveness of measures and measure packages that exceed the minimum state requirements, the 2022 Building Energy Efficiency Standards, effective January 1, 2023, in newly constructed buildings. This report was developed in coordination with the California Statewide Investor Owned Utilities (IOUs) Codes and Standards Program, key consultants, and engaged cities - collectively known as the Reach Codes Team.

The prototype building designs analyzed in this study are newly constructed:
• Single Family Home
• Detached Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU)
The methodology, prototype characteristics, and measure packages are retained from the main studies referenced above except for the energy costs are calculated using local City of Healdsburg utility rates. Measure packages include combinations of energy efficiency, electrification, solar photovoltaics (PV), and battery storage with results evaluated for California Climate Zone CZ02.

This report presents measures or measure packages that local jurisdictions may consider adopting to achieve energy savings and emissions reductions beyond what will be accomplished by enforcing minimum state requirements, the 2022 Building Energy Efficiency Standards (Title 24, Part 6), effective January 1, 2023.

Local jurisdictions may also adopt ordinances that amend different Parts of the California Building Standards Code or may elect to amend other state or municipal codes. The decision regarding which code to amend will determine the specific requirements that must be followed for an ordinance to be legally enforceable. Although a cost-effectiveness study is only required to amend Part 6 of the CA Building Code, it is important to understand the economic impacts of any policy decision. This study documents the estimated costs, benefits, energy impacts and greenhouse gas emission reductions that may result from implementing an ordinance based on the results to help residents, local leadership, and other stakeholders make informed policy decisions.

Model ordinance language and other resources are posted on the C&S Reach Codes Program website at LocalEnergyCodes.com. Local jurisdictions that are considering adopting an ordinance may contact the program for further technical support at [email protected].

localenergycodes.com California Energy Codes & Standards | A statewide utility program 2022-09-09 2 Methodology and Assumptions
The Reach Codes Team analyzed two residential prototype designs to represent a variety of common building types using the cost-effectiveness methodology detailed in this section below. The general methodology is consistent with analyses of other prototypes, whereas some specifics such as utility rate selection are customized for the City of Healdsburg rates.

2.1 Reach Codes
This section describes the approach to calculating cost-effectiveness including benefits, costs, metrics, and utility rate selection.

2.1.1 Benefits
This analysis used both on-bill and time dependent valuation (TDV) of energy-based approaches to evaluate costeffectiveness. Both on-bill and TDV require estimating and quantifying the energy savings and costs associated with energy measures. The primary difference between on-bill and TDV is how energy is valued:
• On-Bill: Customer-based lifecycle cost approach that values energy based upon estimated site energy usage and customer on-bill savings using electricity and natural gas utility rate schedules over a 30-year duration for residential and 15 years for nonresidential designs, accounting for a three percent discount rate and energy cost inflation per Appendix 7.2.3.
• TDV: TDV was developed by the Energy Commission to reflect the time dependent value of energy including long-term projected costs of energy such as the cost of providing energy during peak periods of demand and other societal costs including projected costs for carbon emissions and grid transmission impacts. This metric values energy use differently depending on the fuel source (gas, electricity, and propane), time of day, and season. Electricity used (or saved) during peak periods has a much higher value than electricity used (or saved) during off-peak periods.

The Reach Codes Team performed energy simulations using the most recent software available for 2022 Title 24 code compliance analysis, CBECC-Res v1.0.

2.1.2 Costs
The Reach Codes Team assessed the incremental costs and savings of the energy packages over the lifecycle of 30 years for the single family and ADU buildings. Incremental costs represent the equipment, installation, replacements, and maintenance costs of the proposed measure relative to the 2019 Title 24 Standards minimum requirements or standard industry practices. The Reach Codes Team obtained measure costs from manufacturer distributors, contractors, literature review, and online sources such as Home Depot and RS Means. Taxes and contractor markups were added as appropriate. Maintenance and replacement costs are included.

2.1.3 Metrics
Cost-effectiveness is presented using net present value (NPV) and benefit-to-cost (B/C) ratio metrics. • NPV: The Reach Codes Team uses net savings (NPV benefits minus NPV costs) as the cost-effectiveness metric. If the net savings of a measure or package is positive, it is considered cost effective. Negative net savings represent net costs to the consumer. A measure that has negative energy cost benefits (energy cost increase) can still be cost effective if the costs to implement the measure are even more negative (i.e., construction and maintenance cost savings).
• B/C Ratio: Ratio of the present value of all benefits to the present value of all costs over 30 years (NPV benefits divided by NPV costs). The criteria for cost-effectiveness is a B/C greater than 1.0. A value of one

Packet Pg. 66
Attachment: 2022 Healdsburg Residential Cost Effectiveness Report [Revision 1] (3759 : 2022 Electrification Reach Code (Second Reading)) Cost-Effectiveness Analysis: City of Healdsburg 6
localenergycodes.com California Energy Codes & Standards | A statewide utility program 2022-09-09 indicates the savings over the life of the measure are equivalent to the incremental cost of that measure. A value greater than one represents a positive return on investment.

Improving the energy performance of a building often requires an initial investment. In most cases the benefit is represented by annual on-bill utility or TDV savings, and the cost by incremental first cost and replacement costs.

However, some packages result in initial construction cost savings (negative incremental cost), and either energy cost savings (positive benefits), or increased energy costs (negative benefits). In cases where both construction costs and energy-related savings are negative, the construction cost savings are treated as the benefit while the increased energy costs are the cost. In cases where a measure or package is cost-effective immediately (i.e., upfront construction cost savings and lifetime energy cost savings), B/C ratio cost-effectiveness is represented by “>1”.

Because of these situations, NPV savings are also reported, which, in these cases, are positive values.

2.1.4 Utility Rates
In coordination with the City of Healdsburg, the Reach Codes Team determined appropriate tariffs for each package, summarized in Table 1, based on the annual load profile of the prototype and the corresponding package, and the most prevalent rate for each building type.

For a more detailed breakdown of the rates selected refer to Appendix 7.2 Utility Rate Schedules.

Table 1. Utility Tariffs in City of Healdsburg
Electric / Gas Utility Electricity Natural Gas
Residential (Single Family and Detached ADU)
City of Healdsburg / PG&E E-7 TOU G1
Utility rates are assumed to escalate over time, using assumptions detailed in Appendix 7.2. Please see the main 2022 Single Family New Construction Reach Code Cost Effectiveness Studies for further details on methodology.

2.2 Greenhouse Gas Emissions
The analysis uses the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions estimates built-in to CBECC-Res. There are 8760 hourly multipliers accounting for time dependent energy use and carbon emissions based on source emissions, including renewable portfolio standard projections. Natural gas fugitive emissions, which are shown to be substantial, are not included. There are two strings of multipliers—one for Northern California climate zones, and another for Southern California climate zones.1
.
1 CBECC-Res multipliers are the same for CZs 1-5 and 11-13 (presumed to be Northern California), while there is another set of multipliers for CZs 6-10 and 14-16 (assumed to be Southern California).

The Reach Codes Team evaluated three packages for mixed fuel homes and five packages for all-electric homes for each prototype and climate zone, as described below.

1. All-Electric Code Minimum: This package meets all the prescriptive requirements of the 2022 Title 24 Code.

2. Efficiency Only: This package uses only efficiency measures that don’t trigger federal preemption issues including envelope and water heating or duct distribution efficiency measures.

3. Efficiency + NEEA (Preempted): This package was evaluated for the all-electric homes only and shows an alternative design that applies water heating equipment that is more efficient than federal standards meeting the NEEA Tier 3 rating. The Reach Codes Team considers this more reflective of how builders meet above code requirements in practice.

4. Efficiency + PV: Using the Efficiency Package as a starting point, PV capacity was added to offset most of the estimated electricity use.

5. Efficiency + PV + Battery: Using the Efficiency & PV Package as a starting point, a battery system was added.

For mixed-fuel homes the package of efficiency measures differed from the Efficiency Package in some climate zones to arrive at a cost effective solution.

Results are presented as per the prototype-specific Measure Packages described in Section 4. Overarching factors impacting the results include:
• Designation of a ‘benefit’ or a ‘cost’ varies with the scenarios because both energy savings, and incremental construction costs may be negative depending on the package. Typically, utility bill savings are categorized as a ‘benefit’ while incremental construction costs are treated as ‘costs.’ In cases where both construction costs are negative and utility bill savings are negative, the construction cost savings are treated as the ‘benefit’ while the utility bill negative savings are the ‘cost.’ • All-electric packages will have lower GHG emissions than equivalent mixed-fuel packages in all cases, due to the clean power sources currently available from California’s power providers. • The Reach Codes Team coordinated with the City of Healdsburg to select the most prevalent tariffs for each prototype given the annual energy demand profile. The Reach Codes Team did not compare a variety of tariffs to determine their impact on cost-effectiveness although utility rate changes or updates can effect onbill cost-effectiveness results.

4.1 Residential Occupancies
Table 3 and Table 4 shows results for the single family and ADU prototypes, respectively, for all the evaluated packages. All packages are cost-effective based on TDV. All of the single family packages are On-Bill cost-effective with the exception of the mixed fuel Efficiency + PV + Battery case. Half of the ADU packages on On-Bill cost-effective.

localenergycodes.com California Energy Codes & Standards | A statewide utility program 2022-09-09 5 Summary
The Reach Codes Team developed packages of energy efficiency measures as well as packages combining energy efficiency with solar PV generation, simulated them in building modeling software, and gathered costs to determine the cost-effectiveness of multiple scenarios. The Reach Codes Team coordinated with multiple utilities, cities, and building community experts to develop a set of assumptions considered reasonable in the current market. Changing assumptions, such as the period of analysis, measure selection, cost assumptions, energy escalation rates, or utility tariffs are likely to change results.

Table 5 (all-electric) and Table 6 (mixed fuel) summarize results for each prototype and depict the efficiency EDR2 compliance margins achieved for each climate zone and package. Because local reach codes must both exceed the Energy Commission performance budget (i.e., have a positive compliance margin) and be cost-effective, the Reach Codes Team highlighted cells meeting these two requirements to help clarify the upper boundary for potential reach code policies. All results presented in this study have a positive compliance margin. • Cells highlighted in green depict a positive compliance margin and cost-effective results using both On-Bill and TDV approaches.
• Cells highlighted in yellow depict a positive compliance and cost-effective results using either the On-Bill or TDV approach.
• Cells not highlighted depict a package that was not cost effective using either the On-Bill or TDV approach.

The Reach Codes Team found all-electric code compliant new construction to be feasible and cost effective based on TDV and Healdsburg electricity rates for both the single family and ADU prototypes. While the code compliant allelectric building had higher first year utility costs, the additional cost was small. Combining higher capacity PV systems and all-electric construction does reduce utility costs.

For a reach code that allows for mixed fuel buildings the mixed fuel efficiency, PV, and battery package was found to be cost effective based on TDV for both prototypes with EDR2 margins between 13.5 and 14.5.

7.2.3 Fuel Escalation Rates

7.2.3.1 Residential Occupancies
The average annual escalation rates in Table 7 were used in this study. The natural gas rates are based on assumptions from the CPUC 2021 En Banc hearings on utility costs through 2030 (California Public Utilities Commission, 2021a). Electricity rates through 2030 are based on feedback from City of Healdsburg staff that rates tend to escalate nominally three percent annually. A real rate of one percent was calculated based on an average annual value for inflation of two percent. Escalation rates through the remainder of the 30-year evaluation period are based on the escalation rate assumptions within the 2022 TDV factors.

CITY OF HEALDSBURG

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: September 19, 2022
SUBJECT: Agreement for Bike Share Services with Bird Rides Inc.

PREPARED BY: Ben Kageyama, Senior Civil Engineer
STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):

Maintain and Improve Infrastructure and Facilities
Maintain and Enhance Public Health and Safety
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

Adopt a Resolution approving an Agreement for Bike Share Services with Bird Rides Inc. in the not-to-exceed amount of $290,000 and authorizing the City Manager to execute the Agreement.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:

The City currently has eight existing bike share stations which have been vacated by the previous operator. The previous bike share program involved a feasibility study and extensive process for community engagement which included: several City Council and Transportation Advisory Committee meetings, with City Council approval on June 5, 2017; numerous social media posts in 2018 on Facebook, Nextdoor, and Instagram; a commemoration event on February 3, 2018 at City Hall with councilmembers, community groups, and the Sonoma County Bike Coalition; an in-person “how to use the bikeshare program” event on May 24, 2019 publicized via City website and social media; and creation of a City webpage dedicated to the bikeshare program.

The public expressed the need for bike share to provide last mile service by siting bikes near parking and the future SMART depot. Throughout the process, feedback has been overwhelmingly in support of bike share and the cancellation of the program has generated strong interest from the public to start a new program.

BACKGROUND:

The Quick Strike Program is a competitive federally funded grant program within the One Bay Area Grant Program (OBAG) framework. The program is intended to benefit bicycle/pedestrian safety and mobility, transit and transit access improvements, connected mobility, or advancing equitable mobility. Bike share specifically was listed as a suitable project type for the program.

Given the previous, short-lived bike share program in Healdsburg, the Quick Strike Program was determined to be a good fit to help re-establish bike share in the City with electric bicycles (ebikes), which have the potential to be financially sustainable beyond the subsidized pilot

program.

On May 17, 2021, City Council adopted a Resolution authorizing the Director of Transportation and Public Works to submit a grant application to the Metropolitan Transportation Commission for the Quick Strike Program requesting $250,000 with a local match of $40,000 for the Healdsburg Electric Bike Share Program. Upon receiving the award, staff has processed the bike share project approval through Caltrans Local Assistance and recently received an authorization to proceed on July 31, 2022.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

Upon issuing a Request for Proposals for electric bicycle share services, staff received proposals from six vendors. The top three vendors were interviewed, and Bird Rides Inc. (Bird) was deemed to be the most qualified firm. The Agreement will be for a 3-year pilot program making available electric bikes for public use subject to a City-approved user fee schedule. The agreement includesdiscounted rates for low-income residents. Bird will furnish, operate, and maintain the bike share system and provide marketing and outreach for the program. Bike share stations will be conveniently located for use by City residents and visitors in the downtown Plaza area, along the Foss Creek Pathway, at City parks, and on other City property. Bike share stations will be reused from the previously terminated non-electric bike share program and all locations will be City-owned with no construction needed.

Staff recommends the City Council adopt a Resolution approving and authorizing the City Manager to enter into an Agreement for Bike Share Services with Bird Rides Inc. for the Healdsburg Bike Share Project.

ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP:

Electric bicycle usage will reduce vehicle trips and parking demand in the downtown area, thereby reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

ALTERNATIVES:

The City Council could choose not to approve the Agreement for Bike Share Services with Bird Rides Inc. and direct staff to select another bike share vendor or choose to reject the grant funds for the bike share pilot program.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Of the $290,000 not-to-exceed Agreement amount, the Quick Strike grant will reimburse up to $250,000, with the City providing a local match for the remaining $40,000. The local match is included in the budget.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:

The project will utilize existing bike share stations and no structural improvements are proposed or expected. The project has qualified for CEQA categorical exemption (Class 15301(c)) and NEPA categorical exclusion (CFR 771.117(c): activity (c)(3)).

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: September 19, 2022
SUBJECT: Arts and Culture Master Plan Implementation
PREPARED BY: Mark Themig, Community Services Director
STRATEGIC INITIATIVE(S):

Establish Proactive Policies/Programs to Continue to Promote Economic Diversity & Sustainable Growth
Maintain and Improve Infrastructure and Facilities
Provide Resident-Driven Community Services
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

Receive an update on the implementation of the Arts and Culture Master Plan and provide direction to staff and the Creative Leadership Team.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT/OUTREACH:
34 community members comprise the Creative Leadership Team that acted as a steering committee and ensured the plan was reflective of the Healdsburg community. The Creative Leadership Team consisted of residents, artists, business owners, non-profit organizations representatives, educators, Healdsburg 2040 representatives, and Parks and Recreation commissioners. The planning process involved the following community outreach:
• 14 Creative Leadership Team meetings
• 45 targeted meetings/stakeholder interviews (100+ community members) • 3 community townhalls
• 2 focus group discussion with Comité Corazón
• Panel discussion with Healdsburg students in grades 3-12 • Cultural arts and facilities field trip
• Presentations on the history and trends in public art and cultural facilities • Community survey (526 responses)
Following City Council’s adoption of the plan in August 2021, staff continued to work with the Creative Leadership Team for developing the implementation plan and the FY22-24 arts and culture budget proposal. Representation from the Creative Leadership Team remains active and engaged.

9.B
Packet Pg. 82
BACKGROUND:

On August 16, 2021, City Council reviewed and adopted the City’s first Arts and Culture Master Plan. The plan cumulates over five years of work assessing, discussing, and envisioning the role arts and culture has in helping to make Healdsburg a great place to live, work and visit.

The City’s role in arts and culture has historically been focused on public art and community events. In 2007 the City Council adopted a public art policy that outlines a process for the installation in public art. While the policy guides the placement of art, it doesn’t specifically address what constitutes “art”. This has at times created challenges for commissions that are charged with reviewing art installations under the policy.

The City’s long-standing Tuesdays in the Plaza concert series has been a focal point for bringing regionally known performers to the Plaza each week during the summer, and more recently the City increased its role in supporting arts-related nonprofits for events like Art After Dark and the Arts Festival (Healdsburg Center for the Arts), Jazz Village and the Juneteenth Celebration (Healdsburg Jazz Festival), Shakespeare in the Park (Raven Performing Arts Center), and Dia de Muertos (Corazón Healdsburg). The City has also implemented new cultural events including Sundays in the Plaza music series and the Merry Healdsburg holiday celebration.

In an effort to further define the City’s role in arts and culture, in August 2017 the City launched a community process to begin a discussion about art in Healdsburg and the City’s and community’s role in encouraging and supporting the arts. As part of this effort the City and Healdsburg Center for the Arts co-hosted a conversation about the arts in the late summer of 2017. Approximately 50 members of the community attended and provided their input on the current state of the arts and options for the future.

Staff followed-up with a presentation to City Council in September 2017 sharing information from the community conversation. However, the Sonoma County wildfires brought the process to a halt shortly thereafter. The conversation resumed in early 2018, and in March of 2018, the Parks and Recreation Commission established a goal to engage the community in defining the role of arts. In June 2018 the City Council built on this effort and established their own goals that focused on enhancing arts and culture in Healdsburg:

Goals
• Embark on a community-based arts and culture plan that would gather widespread input about the role of arts and culture in the life of the community, assess the socioeconomic impact of the arts, provide data on how the City compares to other cities in terms of supporting the arts, explore opportunities for collaboration among organizations and businesses, and identify ways to foster and enhance the arts. • Use the information gathered to enhance the City’s participation in expanding art in the City.

Outcomes
• Prepare a community-based arts and culture plan that includes community workshops to gather widespread input on the desired arts and culture activities/programs. • Work with local organizations and businesses to explore opportunities to foster and enhance

9.B
Packet Pg. 83
the arts.
• Explore funding options to encourage artistic and cultural activities in the City and support community art.

In August 2018, a team from the American Institute of Architects (AIA) visited Healdsburg for a 3-day site visit and community workshop sessions. The data collected during that visit is part of a long term, citizen led, visioning process called SDAT/Healdsburg 2040. The outcome of that visit was a comprehensive report which identified five categories as focal points for the visioning team to focus on moving forward, with one of those categories being Arts and Culture.

In meeting City Council’s 2018 goals and outcomes, the Community Services Department’s operating budget included funding for a community arts and culture master planning process that would accomplish the following goals:
• Assess the current state of the arts in Healdsburg.
• Create a comprehensive data list of arts and cultural assets that include venues, organizations, programs, businesses, and other opportunities. • Gather widespread input from the community about how they envision the role of arts and culture in Healdsburg.
• Research the economic impact of the arts within the City and provide data on how it compares to other cities.
• Explore opportunities for collaboration among the City, organizations, and businesses to foster and enhance the arts.
• Define the City and other organization’s roles as it pertains to the advancement of arts in Healdsburg.
• Prepare and present a final report with actionable recommendations.

In June 2019, the City entered into a Professional Services Agreement with the Cultural Planning Group (CPG) to help guide the community through the arts and culture master planning process.

CPG brings extensive and unparalleled experience in cultural planning. As the lead consulting agency, CPG was responsible for facilitating community meetings and conversations, analyzing the current state of arts and culture in Healdsburg, collecting data, defining challenges and opportunities, providing recommended strategies, and working in partnership with the Creative Leadership Team and City staff to create an actionable cultural plan that will serve as a framework for enhancement of arts and creative initiatives in our community over the next 10 years.

The Creative Leadership Team, the Cultural Planning Group, and City Staff (collectively referred to as “the planning team”) officially began the planning process in July 2019. The planning process was delayed several times due to wildfires, flooding, and most recently the COVID-19 pandemic. The Creative Leadership Team and the overall community’s perseverance through the delays and vision for a brighter arts and cultural future helped to strengthen the plan and better represent where we are as a community today. The completion of the plan represented the determination and voices of the community.

City Council’s adoption of the plan allowed the planning process to move into the implementation stages. The City Council allocated $50,000 per year for implementation as part

of the current two-year budget and also committed to further discussion of implementation steps and priorities.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

Arts and Culture Master Plan
The adopted master plan recognizes and acknowledges the important role arts and culture has in the community. In addition, while not as well know as communities like Santa Fe, New Mexico, Healdsburg’s existing arts and culture opportunities attract visitors from throughout the country and the world. Key findings in the plan include the following:
• Our community is made up collectively of amazing artists, organizations, and creative individuals. Finding a path to bring that creative energy together has the potential to lead to impactful collaborations.
• We are a community of various cultural and heritage backgrounds. Better understanding and celebration of all communities within Healdsburg is critical. • Healdsburg is a community of multiple arts and culture spaces and places. We have not just one opportunity, but various spaces which can be cultivated as performing arts spaces, cultural centers, and collaborative makers spaces.

Residents feel the Community Center is a shared community gathering place and there is significant potential for the Community Center to serve the public in different ways. • There is a strong desire for more creative opportunities and spaces for our students and emerging artists.
• Healdsburg’s brand has the potential to evolve to embrace the arts as an essential part of its character of place in the same accord in which the vintner culture and food sector have been celebrated.
• Healdsburg’s residents are a supportive and collaborative community. Community members have demonstrated a strong resiliency and are determined to address challenges that enhance the quality of life and economic vitality of the city.

program (proposed $40,000)
o Pursue external grants through a grant writer (proposed $5,000) o Allocate funding for maintenance of existing public art (proposed $5,000) o Discuss revitalizing the Cultural Trust Fund that the City created in 1989 with a contribution from two trustees (initial donation of $69,680, current value $77,472; initial principal amount is non-expendable, but any interest earned can be used to fund grants for cultural activities)
Staff will provide an overview of the proposed implementation strategies and anticipates that representatives of the Creative Leadership Team will provide additional public comment during the meeting.

ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP:

Not applicable.

ALTERNATIVES:

City Council could choose different implementation and funding strategies.

We believe in
the creative
exchange
of ideas and
dialogue to craft
our art and
culture.

The City of Healdsburg Community Arts and Culture Plan
exists to shape how arts and creativity is experienced, and supported. It is a map to discover and rediscover the artistic, natural, and cultural resources that define Healdsburg’s sense of place and inspired way of living. Most importantly, it captures the bold collaborative spirit of the community’s people, who desire their shared art and culture to speak in ways that are welcoming and awakening.

Art and culture are naturally rooted here. They are an amenity of authentic local life, derived from breathtaking vistas, enveloping skies, charming streetscapes, and twisting vines. Under the growing appreciation of art’s role in creating a vibrant community, the City of Healdsburg recently adopted arts and culture as a clear priority, eager to explore possibilities for how art can be imagined, applied, and experienced in daily life.

OUR VISION
Healdsburg is revered for the unique public interaction, dialogue, and expression that inspires our distinctive artforms.

The community is deeply enriched by our makers of art,
music, dance, theater, film, wines, and cuisine — and we are intrinsically connected through our shared culture and experiences.

The Healdsburg Community Arts and Culture Plan is a guide to achieve a shared community vision. Healdsburg is rich in agriculture, artistry, ethnicity, and gastronomy, and its people possess a genuinely collaborative soul. By respecting these key elements, this plan will advance arts and culture in the community while emphasizing its exceptional vibe and character.

The plan is organized with 5 Goals and corresponding
Strategies and Actions. The actions are flagged with staggered implementation in mind. Select actions represent early wins and foundational needs and others occur on a mid-term to longterm timeline. plan overview

Implementation Near-Term: 1- 3 years Mid-term: 4-6 years Long-term: 7-10 years about this plan

THE PATH TO THIS COMMUNITY ARTS

AND CULTURAL PLAN
The path to this plan is a statement about the will and determination of Healdsburg’s community. The planning
process (as outlined in Plan Research and Engagement)
began in July of 2019, consisting of multiple site visits by the consulting team, virtual and in-person meetings, interviews, discussion groups, research, and timeline
pivots. The process was delayed by wildfires, floods and the COVID-19 pandemic.

The persistence of City staff and the Creative
Leadership Team ultimately made this plan possible.

The Creative Leadership Team is a group of community
leaders comprising long-time residents, artists,
educators, business owners, and creative professionals.

Their common vision for a brighter future for arts
and culture persevered through all the delays. They
helped adapt the planning process to remain true to
Healdsburg. Each of the members is deeply invested
in their community, owns a distinct perspective that
contributed to this final plan, and provided great insight to the planning team and the City.

The Creative Leadership Team listened throughout
the process. Every Healdsburg resident or worker who
gave their opinion, ideas, concerns, and aspirations is represented in this plan. It is a plan by the community and for the community, led by a very special leadership group with a beautiful, common vision.

CULTURAL EQUITY COMMITMENT
The Community Arts and Culture Plan values all cultures of Healdsburg. It encourages sharing among those cultures to build a strong and interconnected community and supports equal empowerment and representation of all cultural perspectives. The plan’s full intent is to recognize and support all artists, creative workers, and arts and culture organizations representing the various ethnic and cultural backgrounds within the Healdsburg community.

ARTISTIC EXCELLENCE COMMITMENT
Healdsburg is a unique arts and community and cultural
destination with exceptional art galleries, restaurants, arts organizations, wineries, and more. While implementing this plan, it is imperative to develop and observe standards of excellence related to plan goals and actions, especially for the public art program and facilities development. Although the terms quality and excellence hold different meanings depending on the setting, plan implementation will maintain defined standards of excellence which are to be guided by the community and the City.

This plan
acknowledges
all members of
Healdsburg and
promotes equal
and fair access
to a rich
cultural life.

The full Historical Overview of Healdsburg Arts and Culture, by Holly Hoods, Healdsburg Museum and Historical Society, appears in the appendix to this plan.

Indigenous Art of Southern Pomo and Western Wappo
The diverse artistic talents and rich cultural traditions of the Southern Pomo and Western Wappo-speaking people have been linked to this land for thousands of years. For generations the people lived in villages with a well-developed culture and a tradition of skilled basket weaving. Descendants of the First People still live in the local area, retaining strong personal ties to their homeland, oral traditions, and cultural heritage. Using methods honed over generations, Native Pomo and Wappo basket makers are recognized as being among the finest basket makers in the world. At the turn of the 20th century, an art market developed for Pomo baskets in the United States. An extensive collection of Pomo/Wappo basketry is held by the Healdsburg Museum and Historical Society and the Dry Creek Rancheria Band of Pomo Indians.

Founding of Healdsburg, 1857
City founder Harmon G. Heald of Ohio arrived in Sonoma County in 1850 and built a cabin and trading post on the well-worn path heading northward to Gold Country, now Healdsburg Avenue. “Heald’s Store” or “Heald’s Station” soon featured a post office, blacksmith, and a few wood-frame houses. Within two years, Healdsburg grew to 120 houses, a private academy, a concert hall, and a population of 500. They celebrated harvest with agricultural festivals, as did the Native residents with their own seasonal celebrations. Fraternal organizations soon followed, as did singing, sports, and amateur theater clubs. The clubs and organizations hosted socials, dances, and quilting bees.

Theaters and Performing Arts
In 1876, Liberty Hall on Center Street received an extensive renovation, converting it to an elaborate theater seating up to 500 people. By 1884, the city was attracting performers from across the United States. Halls and performance spaces such as Truitt’s Opera House and Theater hosted vaudeville acts, lectures, musicians, and amateur and professional acting troupes.

As the 20th Century dawned, so did the growth of a new
entertainment. The M&M Theater opened in 1908 as a nickelodeon on West Street (now Healdsburg Avenue) and began showing silent films. The new Liberty Theater, seating 1,000, opened to great fanfare on Healdsburg Avenue in 1920 and a decade later would be known as the Plaza Theater after its conversion to a “Talkie Theater.” The Plaza endured until 1954.

The Aven Theater opened on North Street in 1949 as a motion picture theater and remained a popular destination for local kids and families for decades. It was purchased by the Mayor of Healdsburg in 1978 and served the local Spanish-speaking community by showing Spanish language films two days a week.

In 1976, Camp Rose Players acting troupe was founded. The 30- seat playhouse opened with “Josefa and Captain Fitch,” a play that dramatized the life of Fitch Mountain’s namesake. Camp Rose Players presented more than 100 shows until its founder’s death in 2012.

In 1987, the Aven Movie Theater was remodeled as The Raven Performing Arts Theater, quickly earning a reputation as “Best Theater North of the Golden Gate.” In 2000, falling attendance forced the Raven into sale. A small group worked to save the theater as a performance venue and in 2001 incorporated as Healdsburg Performing Arts Theater (H-PAT). H-PAT today operates healdsburg: our artistic origins under the name Raven Performing Arts Theater and is the performance home of the Raven Players, H-Town Youth Theater, and Healdsburg Jazz Festival.

HISTORY
The Healdsburg Museum and Historical Society (HM&HS) was founded in 1976 to record the history of the Healdsburg area through the collection and preservation of historical materials and to foster the appreciation of local history through programs and activities. The City collection was originally housed at City Hall and included photographs, paintings, artwork, historical documents, and Pomo basketry. In 1993, the Historical Society saved the Museum from municipal budget cuts. The HM&HS
continues to operate today as a nonprofit history and arts organization presenting cultural and educational programming to the community.

MUSIC
Over the years the City of Healdsburg and outdoor concerts have become synonymous. Saturday night concerts in the Plaza have entertained local citizens and visitors since the 1880s. Rural families came to town to listen and socialize. The merchants stayed open on those Saturday evenings so the parents could shop and then treat the children to something cool at the soda fountain.

The Russian River Brass Band was the first organized band here in the late 1850s. In 1873, the Plaza was cleared and about five years later the bell tower and the first bandstand were built. By 1888 openair performances in the Plaza developed into a series of Saturday night concerts. Several bands formed over the decades, keeping the series alive. The Great Depression forced the concerts to close until 1937 when they resumed. The Healdsburg Municipal Band concert of July 5, 1941 drew close to 4,000 people. The old bell tower, bandstand and fountain are gone and the gazebo on the east side of the Plaza now serves as the stage. Since 2004, Tuesday evening’s Music in the Plaza remains a much-loved local tradition.

The Healdsburg Jazz Festival was founded in 1999. Over the next decade, the festival grew to attract major artists and a wide audience. Healdsburg Jazz Festival developed a national reputation for artistic excellence, hosting internationally acclaimed jazz musicians, showcasing the area’s foremost jazz performers and nurturing new talent.

VISUAL ARTS
Sonoma County and Healdsburg has long attracted a thriving and talented visual arts community. Healdsburg was home to internationally recognized painter Richard Diebenkorn during his final years. The Healdsburg Arts Council (HAC) was formed in 1993 to advance the arts and art education by providing performance opportunities, library readings, visual art presentations, and educational workshops in the arts. HAC opened “Plaza Arts” in 2002 as a new visual arts gallery and space for local artists. In 2010, Plaza Arts became Healdsburg Center for the Arts (HCA) offering art instruction, after school programs, summer art camp, and the popular Young Artist Show.

Over the past 25 years, Healdsburg’s art scene has flourished to boast nearly 20 art galleries, its oldest being the Erickson Fine Art Gallery which opened in San Francisco in 1983 and moved to Healdsburg in 1997.

13 PUBLIC ART
In the late 20th century, public art in the form of permanent monuments to history appeared in the Healdsburg Plaza. Before this, most of the public installations were primarily of a practical kind, such as the Ladies Improvement Club artistic drinking fountain of 1901 and the Plaza Street sidewalk clock from the 1920s.

Public art has expanded in the past 15 years under the City of Healdsburg. In 2007, the City adopted a public arts policy to guide the installation of artwork in public spaces for long-term installations. In 2018, a temporary public arts installation program was introduced then became City policy. Under the current guidelines, temporary art installations are allowed in parks and designated public spaces under a permit issued by the Community Services Director.

As part of the City celebration of the sesquicentennial in 2007, artist Carlos Perez painted a mural about local history on the Masonic Lodge at the northwest corner of Center and Plaza Streets. From 2006-2007, the first and second phases of art at the Foss Creek Pathway were dedicated. The art is on display for an indefinite period, and new works have been installed along the Pathway as new sections are constructed. In 2010, the Voigt Family Sculpture Foundation temporarily installed “Aero-5,” a stainlesssteel kinetic sculpture made by Moto Ohtake in the West Plaza.

HEALDSBURG TODAY
Modern Healdsburg cherishes its small-town character, community spirit, architectural charm, and vibrant history. Residents and visitors enjoy its culinary, arts, and wine destinations.

Healdsburg is the perfect confluence of nature, agriculture, history, and community. Celebrating Healdsburg’s agricultural legacy and artistic contributions is a community priority.

Healdsburg’s brand should evolve to celebrate the vintner culture, the people, and the arts as an essential part of its character of place.

Healdsburg’s residents are a collaborative and supportive community. Residents and businesses are determined to
address challenges and enhance the quality of life and economic vitality of the city. Community members from all backgrounds make Healdsburg unique. Understanding and celebrating the contributions, resources, and specific needs of all communities is critical to plan success.

Healdsburg is a community of arts and culture spaces and places.

The arts community of Healdsburg provides not just one opportunity for the development of an arts space but holds many different cultural gems to cultivate as performing arts spaces, cultural centers, and maker spaces. Performing arts venues and collaborative spaces are a key part of the community’s vision. Residents suggest revitalization and adaptation of current spaces and developing additional maker/ studio spaces located in libraries and other areas of Healdsburg.

Students and young residents from all backgrounds want to see more arts and cultural spaces throughout the city.

The Healdsburg Community Center is a celebrated, safe place for all community groups. Residents feel the center is a shared community gathering place and there is significant potential for the Center to serve the public in different ways.

Healdsburg residents enjoy a focus on visual arts, with an amazing community of artists and galleries. The galleries showcase national and international artists high profile exhibitions, and performing arts events, and are an integral part of the culturally vibrant Healdsburg.

9.B.a
Packet Pg. 94
Attachment: Arts and Culture Master Plan_Final (3695 : Arts and Culture Master Plan Implementation) The arts enjoy a strong presence in Healdsburg, home to numerous cultural organizations, galleries, venues, festivals, and events.

The community is plentiful in arts patrons, consumers, and collectors to support its growing wealth of offerings. Festivals and community events include the Healdsburg Arts Festival and Street Art Series, Healdsburg Jazz Festival, Art After Dark, Tuesdays in the Plaza, Sundays in the Plaza (summer concert series), and the Dia De Los Muertos celebration. More than 20 private galleries make their home in Healdsburg. Cultural facilities in the city include The Healdsburg Museum and Historical Society, The Raven Theatre, and The Healdsburg Center for the Arts. The culture of Healdsburg is rooted in agriculture — this is reflected in its abundance of farms, wineries, and farm-to-table culinary scene. More than 100 wineries lie within a 20-minute drive of the city and the area boasts more than 50 stand-out restaurants.

THE ROLE OF THE CITY
Historically, the City’s role in arts and culture was limited. It is currently without an official cultural affairs department and does not provide arts-specific grants or support services. Limited funding is made available to cultural groups, although no grants are made to individual artists. In response to these challenges, the Healdsburg Community Services Department initiated an August 2017 community conversation about art in Healdsburg, exploring community aspirations and the role of the City in supporting the arts.

In 2018, two key initiatives brought arts and culture to the forefront for Healdsburg. First, The Parks and Recreation Commission and City Council established goals to engage the community in defining the role of arts. Second, a team from American Institute of Architecture (AIA) visited Healdsburg for a three-day intensive visit and community workshop sessions. The data collected during that visit is part of a long term, resident-led, visioning process called SDAT/Healdsburg 2040. The SDAT comprehensive report identified five focal points for Healdsburg’s future, with one of those being arts and culture.

The 2018-19 City Council Goals articulate several directives for arts and culture:
• Prepare a community-based arts and culture plan that includes community workshops to gather widespread input on the desired arts and cultural activities and programs.
• Work with local organizations and businesses to explore opportunities to foster and enhance the arts.
• Explore funding options to support community art and encourage artistic and cultural activities in the city.
• Assess the socio-economic impact of the arts and how the City compares to other cities in terms of supporting the arts. • Explore funding options to encourage artistic and cultural activities.

The commissioning of a Community Cultural Plan solidified the City’s commitment to making arts and culture a priority.

COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS
Historically, the City partnered with select Healdsburg-based nonprofits for community services, programming, and providing low space options for the organizations. Through a more equitable lens, this plan serves as an opportunity to expand and strengthen partnerships and resources for all nonprofit organizations in the community.

PUBLIC ART
In 2007 the City adopted a public art policy outlining a process for the acquisition and installation of public art in the city. There are currently no public or private development art ordinances to fund the program. They adopted a Temporary Art Installation Program, providing artists a streamlined process for art installations displayed on a temporary basis in designated public spaces throughout town. The Voigt Family Sculpture Foundation supports the display of public art in Healdsburg and provided the City several outdoor artworks on loan. The foundation is unique in its sole mission to support public art, providing a great opportunity for partnership.

CREATIVE ECONOMY
Overview
In the past decade, some cities have broadened their policy focus from arts and culture to encompass the whole creative sector of the economy. This recognizes the organic interconnection of the nonprofit and fine arts communities with the
for-profit and commercial creative industries.

Viewing them as an economic sector better
enables a larger toolkit of economic
development strategies and growth in
the sector.

The term creative economy
is used to describe creativity
throughout a whole economy. It
comprises economic systems
where value is based on
imaginative qualities in addition
to the traditional resources of
land, labor, and capital. The
foundation for a vibrant creative
economy is the creative sector
of industries and occupations.

Creative industries include arts,
culinary, craft, agriculture, advertising,
design, entertainment, architecture, books,
media, software, and more. Creative workers
(creatives) are individuals with advanced training
and experience in the design and production of a broad range of cultural products and services, including individual artists of all disciplines.

The creative industries and occupations are a vital force in individual and community development, empowering people to take ownership of their own development and stimulating the type of innovation that drives sustainable growth. When well-supported, the creative economy is a source of structural economic transformation, socio-economic progress, and job creation. healdsburg: our cultural life
TOP CREATIVE INDUSTRIES (Apart From Wineries):

Full-service restaurants/culinary manufacturing,
architectural services, graphic design services,
advertising/PR agencies, independent artists,
writers, and performers, and art dealers.

In 2019, creative
industries contributed
$47 million in earnings
and $112 million in
sales to our
local economy.
24% of Healdsburg jobs are filled by
nearly 800 culinary-related workers and
more than 650 creative professionals.

The creative
professional
community includes
concentrations of
writers and authors,
graphic designers,
musicians
and singers,
photographers, and
interior designers.

17 The Creative Vitality™ Suite (CVI), a data source generated by Western States Arts Federation (WESTAF), provides a portrait of Healdsburg’s creative economy. The CVI measures the creative economic health of an area by integrating economic data from both the profit and nonprofit sectors. This approach underscores the economic relationships between the profit and nonprofit sectors and is a mechanism for diagnosing creative strengths and weaknesses. According to the 2019 CVI, Healdsburg scores a 1.04 on the national index of 1.00. The CVI for Sonoma County is 1.14.

In 2019, CVI reported a high total of 657 creative professionals in the city representing 11% of total jobs . The top five creative professional occupations are: 1) Writers and authors; 2) Graphic designers 3) Musicians and singers; 4) Photographers; and 5) Interior designers. Overall, Healdsburg’s creative sector jobs have increased 2% from 2018 to 2019. Of the 793 culinary-related workers representing 13% of total jobs, the top three occupations are 1) Restaurant servers 2) Cooks/chefs and 3) Hosts/hostesses.

Total industry earnings for Healdsburg creative industries were

47.3 million in 2019, with industry sales at approximately $112 million. The top five creative industries reported are: 1) Full-service restaurants/culinary manufacturing; 2) Architectural services; 3) Graphic design services; 4) Advertising/PR agencies; and 5) Independent artists, writers, and performers. Art dealers are 6th for creative industry sales.

Cultural Assets
Cultural asset identification plays a vital role in elevating arts, culture, and the heritage of a place, which embodies community identity, quality of life, and economic vitality. For this plan, the intent of identifying Healdsburg’s cultural and creative assets is to:
• Raise awareness of community cultural creative assets with City staff, residents, and visitors.
• Identify strengths, gaps, needs, and opportunities in the arts and cultural sector.
• Provide data necessary for better-informed planning and policy decisions.
• Deliver information for economic development and promotion of arts and cultural resources.

The plan recommends the development of an online site
highlighting and tracking the cultural and creative assets of the community. The work of cultural and creative asset identification is ongoing. The list of information and assets provided in the Appendix of this plan is a living list — to be revised and updated as necessary. Currently, there are 344 creative businesses and 29 nonprofits in Healdsburg.

The Heart of Healdsburg Arts: Nonprofit Community
Cultural Organizations
Nonprofit organizations that represent arts, heritage, and cultural interests in the community are critical to the creativity of Healdsburg, and even more critical to accessibility and arts exposure for residents. They are essential to cultural vitality and include civic and social groups as well. There are 29 nonprofit community cultural organizations in Healdsburg. The largest, Corazón Healdsburg and Reach for Home, are human service organizations.

The largest arts organizations are The Healdsburg Jazz Festival, The Raven Performing Arts Theater, and the Healdsburg Historical Museum. There is a very broad range of organizational disciplines and missions for a community of this size. The disciplines span performing arts, history/heritage/museum, cultural, social service, literary, media, youth arts, visual arts, environmental, and events.

Most notable is the range of types of organizations; it’s an interesting and diverse collection with no major institutions among them. elevate
Our Originality.

The earth, the town, and
our people are intertwined
in a harmonious and
healing culture to be
valued and protected.

PLANNING METHODOLOGY
The completion of this plan is due to the dedication of the residents of Healdsburg who took the time to participate in the process and ultimately shape goals and strategies of the plan.

It is built on community vision and aspiration. In recognition of the important role creativity and the arts play in Healdsburg, the City appointed a Creative Leadership Team (CLT) to guide the plan’s process, development, and eventual implementation.

The CLT comprises local business and nonprofit community leaders, artists, and art educators. The mission of the CLT is to work with the planning team to ensure the development of a comprehensive, inclusive, and sustainable, arts and culture plan for the community.

A broad cross-section of the Healdsburg community participated in planning: elected officials and city leadership, artists of diverse disciplines and careers, culinary professionals, design professionals, arts organizations, business and tourism leaders, gallery owners, architects, board members, arts donors, and education leaders. The planning process began in June 2019 and included interviews, discussion groups, Zoom meetings, panel discussions, and community survey, over five site visits and multiple project virtual meetings.

Due to COVID-19 restrictions, much of the community engagement was conducted virtually with residents and community members, and included targeted meetings with students, the Latinx community, and general residents who selected to participate in the conversations. Corazón Healdsburg led Spanish-language virtual meetings on Zoom and FB Live, and high school students conducted an arts discussion panel, facilitated by Council member Skylaer Palacios. Both the students and the Latinx community showed keen interest in participating in the process, and wanting to participate in cultural and community leadership, moving forward.

An online and printed community survey was available to the public from February 2021 through March 2021. Survey distribution included email communications, social media, and other alerts to City community lists, organizational lists, Creative Leadership Team member contacts, and sharing of the survey link by community organizations and respondents. A total of 526 people completed the survey. A full survey report is available in the Appendix of this plan.

A creative community benchmarking study was conducted to understand key areas of arts and cultural programming, artist retention strategies, cultural tourism initiatives, and city-managed cultural spaces. The cities were selected based on several factors including select similar geography and demography, and aspirational creative vitality and arts programs. The full benchmarking report is available in the Appendix of this plan.

The central questions framing
the planning process:
• What is the current state of
arts and culture in Healdsburg?
• What do residents want the
future to be?
• Where are the opportunities?
• How do we get there?

respondents want more arts and creative activities
for youth and young residents. The community
wants safe and accessible gathering places for

Respondents want to see activities focused
on residents, which in turn, benefit visitors.

Many residents are concerned with the balance of
activities for residents and visitors. While tourism is recognized as critically important to the Healdsburg
economy, residents want to see more arts and creative
experiences for themselves and their families,
including youth activities (71%) and cross-cultural
collaborations (71%). Public art is also important to
residents, with 65% of survey respondents wanting
more public art in Healdsburg. Cultural relevance
and equity are important to Healdsburg residents,
significantly so with the Latinx community. They want
to see more activities relevant to their community,
improved bi-lingual communications from the City, and
more informed partnership models for businesses and
nonprofits to work with Latinx communities.

What Keeps Respondents from Participating
Residents appreciate current arts and cultural offerings, although they want more variety. The most-cited barriers to arts and cultural participation are lack of hearing about activities and opportunities (53%), and lack of interest in what is being offered (41%). Opportunity exists to improve the ratings of creative events and activities, and to eliminate these barriers to participation.

Residents express a desire for more variety and higher-quality arts experiences. As noted, one of the barriers is lack of interest in current offerings. This may be due to location, cultural relevance, and/or quality and variety of current offerings.

26 the plan
This plan’s purpose is to serve as a guide for the support of cultural development in Healdsburg. Ultimately, the success of the plan requires a collaborative effort and partnership among the City and local leaders in business, the arts, tourism, development, and philanthropy. Healdsburg has proven a dedicated supporter of its residents and businesses, indicating implementation of this plan will follow in that same faith.

Stated simply, the plan’s primary goal is to enhance the artistic identity and cultural life of Healdsburg for its residents, businesses, and visitors.

Additional plan goals emphasize partnerships, philanthropic opportunities, cultural equity, examination of the use of existing resources, ongoing asset research, and other issues related to plan success.

There is significant support for renovating existing
spaces and creating spaces for performing arts and
for community collaborations.

plan goals

1. Build the internal support structures for long-term success.

1.1. Formally adopt plan by City Council.

1.2. Create a City Arts and Cultural Commission.

1.3. Provide City staffing to achieve plan goals.

1.4. Provide financial support for plan implementation inclusive of start-up funding and sustainability funding. (Cross reference with Goal 1, Strategy 4.1)
Establishing staff support, creating an Arts and Culture Commission, and developing foundational programs is a first step for plan implementation.

STAFFING
Managing plan implementation and an arts and culture program is complex. Arts program staff will work with City-appointed officials, various City departments, community leaders, nonprofit executives, artists and designers, educational institutions, and all community members. For the short term, it is recommended to appoint one full-time staff person as the program manager.

When feasible, staff may be expanded to include a public art professional and assistant staff. It is recommended the program manager have a background in arts and/or design.

ARTS AND CULTURE COMMISSION
The Arts and Cultural Commission will advise City Council and leadership. The Commission will guide the development of all arts and cultural programs, identify and recommend grants, approve public art projects, and monitor other program elements. As annual workplans are developed for the implementation of this plan, the Commission will review and update it as necessary. Specific criteria should be established for the Commission including term limits, number of members, eligibility criteria, and more. Members should be broadly representative of the Healdsburg residents and businesses including a youth representative, and a select number of members should be knowledgeable of arts, design, and/or public art. (Please see appendix for member profile examples).

2. Develop foundational arts and culture-related programs.

2.1. Review current community programming.

2.1.1. Integrate cultural arts and individual artists’ participation, as appropriate.

2.1.2. Expand current and develop new public-private partnership opportunities in arts and cultural programming.

2.1.3. Review programming and activities to be more inclusive of all residents, with an eye to representation of youth, students, and the LatinX community.

2.2. Review and update program delivery systems and
communications to align with multicultural and multi-language needs.

2.2.1. Eliminate barriers by establishing policies for bi-lingual communications.

2.2.2. Partner with local organizations to determine best practices for cross-cultural partnership models (Spanish speaking teaching artists, bi-lingual instruction,
community communications, etc.)

2.3. Develop programming for and by specific populations, such as children and young people, seniors, and the LatinX community.

Consider programs that celebrate heritage and culture of origin.

2.4. Establish a public art program (Cross reference Goal 4:

Strategy 1).

2.5. Establish a grants program for individual artists and arts organizations.

2.6. Review and revise (as necessary) land use code to allow greater flexibility for arts uses in residential and commercial areas, such as making and selling art from a home.
goal 1: build the structural foundation
for arts and culture.

9.B.a
Packet Pg. 102 Attachment: Arts and Culture Master Plan_Final (3695 : Arts and Culture Master Plan Implementation) community
arts and culture
plan
31 2.7. Create an on-demand Artists in Residency (AIR) program with City departments and outside partners using artists to address current community issues and challenges.

2.8. Develop a community-initiated program that invites proposals for grassroots arts or cultural projects in different areas of Healdsburg from individual artists and individual community members. Keep the proposal process simple and accessible.

THE ARTS AND CULTURE PROGRAM
The key purposes for the City’s arts and culture program are two-fold: to provide artistic and cultural services to Healdsburg residents, and to support its creative sector. The foundational programs recommended here are a starting point. Additional programming may exist related to arts education, specific arts events, historic preservation, and more.

Community Partnerships and Shared Decision-making
This is a community-focused arts and cultural plan, so many of its programs will be developed and implemented through publicprivate partnerships. Partners include tourism and hospitality businesses, educational institutions, non-arts businesses, the Chamber of Commerce, the wine industry, and others.

As all arts programming begins with the creativity of artists and arts organizations, a select group of advisors should be convened to recommend arts integration for new and existing programs.

A top priority is fair and equitable design and distribution of programs and resources, addressing any racial and cultural parity concerns at the beginning of the process. The advisory group should include a diverse representation of community members and artists of all disciplines.

Defining Opportunities to Support Artists
One objective of the arts and culture program is to establish ongoing support for local artists of all disciplines. This includes grants to artists and arts organizations, but many opportunities can be identified and developed to create a robust system of support. Healdsburg is currently limited in its affordable livework, studio, exhibition, and performance spaces. A thoughtful examination of the zoning and land use code will uncover new possibilities that allow artists to create and sell their art from home. An artist residency in City government, available on demand to work on select city projects, provides visible and intentional support for arts and culture in the community.

3. Establish policies and practices to support diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) in Healdsburg’s arts and culture.

3.1. Provide DEI and cultural humility training for the Arts and Culture Commissioners and staff as part of the initiation of the Commission.

3.2. Direct the Arts and Culture Commission to develop a cultural equity policy that addresses racial justice and inclusion.

Incorporate community engagement as part of this process.

3.3. Present the cultural equity policy to City Council for review and adoption.

3.4. Support implementation of the cultural equity policy with ongoing management, reporting, and course corrections.

EQUITY IN THE ARTS
There is an important national conversation about equity— the lack of equity and the pursuit of justice and fairness. Being intentional about achieving equity for all of Healdsburg is the first step. And while racial equity headlines this national conversation, the community of Healdsburg wants to work towards equity for all — all genders, all culturally specific groups, all LGBTQ community members, all immigrant communities, all residents. Arts and culture are an economic and social engine for Healdsburg and should benefit all residents in equal measure.

Americans for the Arts defines cultural equity for the arts as embodying “the values, policies, and practices that ensure that all people — including but not limited to those who have been historically underrepresented based on race/ethnicity, age, disability, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity, socioeconomic status, geography, citizenship status, or religion — are represented in the development of arts policy; the support of artists; the nurturing of accessible, thriving venues for expression; and the fair distribution of programmatic, financial, and informational resources.”
Our community possesses the will, the opportunity, and the motivation to achieve equity in the arts and beyond. Our intentional first step is to establish policies and practices to make this possible.

While there are significant barriers for low-income residents, LatinX communities, and some students and youth - Healdsburg has the will, the opportunity, and the motivation to achieve equity in the arts and beyond. The intentional first step is to establish policies and practices to make this possible.

4. Establish sustainable funding mechanisms.

4.1. Establish a phased commitment of City funds for the arts and culture program (Cross reference with Goal 1: Strategy 1.4)

4.2. Create a “Friends of” or Cultural Trust to receive grants, donations, and other philanthropic contributions for arts and culture programming.

4.2.1. Explore California Arts Council, National Endowment for the Arts, and other grant programs.

4.3. Establish a percent-for-art fee on City capital improvement projects to fund public art. (Cross reference with Goal 4: Action

1.1.1)

4.4. Establish a private development fee for public art onsite or as a contribution to the public art fund. (Cross reference with Goal 4: Action 1.1.2)

4.5. Collaborate with Creative Sonoma and other Sonoma County municipalities on potential countywide funding sources.

DIVERSIFIED FUNDING FOR ARTS AND CULTURE
Healdsburg is fortunate to have more than one potential source of funding for cultural plan implementation and programming. The most sustainable strategy for funding is one that draws on diverse sources. Over time, this might be a combination of Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) and City general funds, private funds from the community, percent-for-art dollars from City and private developments, and grant sources from outside the community.

Conceiving the “arts budget” under diverse funding sources allows the community to adapt to economic challenges, take advantage of private philanthropy in the community, and access other available funding. This flexibility produces the greatest rewards and sustainability in the long run.

CITY FINANCIAL SUPPORT
Considering the challenges of 2020/2021 and their impact on the City TOT and Healdsburg Tourism Improvement District (HTID) assessments, it is necessary to establish a phased approach for funding the arts and culture programs.

A potentially significant source of arts funding could be obtained through the creation of a percent-for-art program that applies to both City capital improvement projects and new private developments. This concept is detailed in the following section of this plan.

CULTURAL TRUST
Establishing an Arts and Culture Fund allows the solicitation of private and community support to augment the City’s arts programming and operations. The Fund may be housed at the City, or the Community Foundation Sonoma County as part of the Healdsburg Forever endowment. The Arts and Culture Commission can provide governance and oversight of solicitations and use of these monies. Opportunities for grants include those from the National Endowment for the Arts, the National Endowment for the Humanities, the Institute for Museum and Library Services, the California Arts Council, Creative Sonoma, the Community Foundation Sonoma County, and many other private and corporate funders in the community.

for our community and visitors.

1. Identify and develop distinctive cross-sector collaborations for arts and cultural experiences throughout Healdsburg and the surrounding area.

2. Articulate arts and culture as an important part of
Healdsburg’s character of place.

2.1. Work with the Chamber to designate a seat on the Chamber Board for an arts and culture representative.

2.2. Identify partnerships with Chamber members and initiatives for local and visitor promotions involving arts and culture.

2.3. Build on current programming and facilitate small-scale arts events and activities throughout the year, collaborating with local artists and businesses. In planning these events, ensure cultural relevancy and diverse programming.

THE EXPERIENCE OF PLACE
Healdsburg is a compelling community, delivering superb experiences that combine elements of arts, culture, food, wine, nature, and luxury flavored with authentic local character. The primary goal of this plan is enhancing experiences for residents of all ages, amplifying the arts through cross-sector collaborations, and elevating the awareness of the arts through communityinitiated and community-based activities and partnerships.

Creating space for greater connection between sectors provides numerous opportunities for cultural experiences to serve residents. Local culture also enhances the visitor experience, making it more natural and beneficial for all. People are attracted to the experience of a place where they are enveloped in local character and artistry.

Strengthening local cultural experiences aligns with Healdsburg’s commitment to its people and places, enriches the quality of life for residents of all ages and backgrounds, and provides a unique experience for all.

5. Enrich cultural experiences for residents and visitors. (Cross reference Goal 2).

HEALDSBURG’S CREATIVE SECTOR
Healdsburg is an example of a small and robust creative community including businesses, restaurants, wineries, arts organizations, and individual artists. Expanding the focus of plan strategy and implementation to encompass the entire creative sector creates optimal conditions for creatives to thrive and for residents to enjoy a richly creative environment.

Responsible for Healdsburg’s vibrancy is a robust group of artists, galleries, agricultural partners, creatives, educators, and culinary workers. All play a significant role in the creative life of residents, provide important services and programs for youth and civic groups, work with the community on important issues, and are a viable economic engine contributing to the overall economy. Most importantly, the Healdsburg creative sector is highly collaborative and partners with the City to develop growth opportunities for current and next generation creatives, ensuring community arts remain longstanding and vital to the local way of life.

Articulating the value of the arts, community creativity, and local artists is a primary vision of this plan. This includes a comprehensive online site showcasing cultural assets, artists, creative business resources, public art maps and tours, local stories and places, and more. The intent is an integrated site highlighting character of place and promotion of businesses in a creative, authentic way. It is primarily a community and regional resource to be promoted nationally and internationally. “When well-supported, the creative economy is a source of structural economic transformation, socio-economic progress, job creation and innovation while contributing to social inclusion, and building more inclusive societies through policies recognizing cultural differences and multicultural perspectives. ”

RESILIENCY AND RECOVERY
Healdsburg’s creative community is a key partner and contributor to community resilience and recovery in times of crisis. The arts and artists are essential workers in our society and economy, helping us recover, reflect, and rebuild. Healdsburg residents have faced numerous natural and public health challenges to their economy and well-being. Healdsburg’s creative community represents a powerful force in response, recovery, and resiliency.

Artists, cultural nonprofits, and creative businesses repeatedly and spontaneously provide critical assistance in times of crisis — during wildfires and natural disasters, the COVID pandemic, and economic recessions. Healdsburg can continue to leverage its creative community to mitigate the impacts of crises and progress toward recovery.

BENEFITS OF A PUBLIC ART PROGRAM
The development of a City public art program is a path to accessible art for all in Healdsburg. The public art program must commit to community-based art projects and the purchase or commission of high-quality art of enduring value. When a work of art is placed in a public space, there is every likelihood it will occupy that space for many years, so quality and long-term value are essential considerations.

A subcommittee of the Arts and Culture Commission can assume the role of a traditional Public Art Committee which develops guidelines, evaluates proposals, and implements projects. It is recommended the subcommittee comprise members with
professional qualifications in the fields of art and design. They may be residents or business owners in Healdsburg, or qualified individuals from the surrounding region.

PUBLIC ART REQUIREMENTS
City Projects
More than 750 municipal agencies (cities, counties, special districts, and public authorities) in the nation have adopted percent-for-art ordinances. These range from one to two percent of municipal capital improvement projects. It is recommended that Healdsburg adopt a two percent requirement. This ensures the public art project is commensurate with the scale of the underlying capital project.

Private Development
In the last decade, many municipalities extended the two percent public art requirement to new private development. New private development generates new demand for public services; private developers create new public elements, such as parks, as part of their projects. The art requirement ensures residents benefit either through public art as part of the developments, or with funding applied to other City public art-related projects. The two percent public art requirement is based on the project’s permit valuation(s).

WHAT IS PUBLIC ART?
Public art expresses community values, enhances the environment, transforms a landscape, heightens awareness of community concerns, and questions assumptions. Public art commemorates local history and traditions. The art is intended for everyone, a form of collective community expression. Public art reflects how we see the world — the artist’s response to our time and place combined with our own sense of who we are. The definition of public art continues to evolve, providing varied place-based opportunities to engage communities and bring vibrancy and life both to public places and private development. Public art is a powerful tool and partner in achieving civic goals in the areas of economic development, identity, community engagement, cultural diversity, revitalization, placemaking, and tourism. (Adapted from Penny Balkin Bach, 1992.)

38 The private developer may satisfy this obligation in one of two ways: 1) dedicate one-half of the public art requirement for artwork on the site (subject to Arts and Culture Public Art Subcommittee review and approval) and deposit the remaining half into the City public art fund; or 2) deposit an amount equal to one and one-half percent of the project’s permit valuation(s) with the City for public art projects anywhere in the city, and for program administration and public art maintenance.

TEMPORARY AND PARTICIPATORY PUBLIC ART
Employing temporary public art is a valuable opportunity to introduce the public art program to the community. It provides an option to display cutting-edge and challenging public art not appropriate for permanent installation. These projects are also an important career pathway for young and emerging artists to become public artists, and an avenue for students and youth to share their art with the public. Temporary projects may be part of the community-initiated arts program.

Artists participating in temporary public art projects are provided a modest honorarium and retain ownership of the artwork once it is removed from display. The City should insure the artworks and indemnify the artists from any harm to persons or property.

PARTNERSHIPS
From time to time, private foundations, businesses, and individuals may wish to loan or donate public art to the City. Examples currently exist in Healdsburg such as the Voigt Foundation loan of public art along the Foss Creek Parkway and the proposed public art in the roundabout at the southern end of downtown. Other opportunities include public art along the river trails, creation of murals on private buildings, or functional art created by artists throughout the city.

All proposals for loans and donations of public art should be subject to review by the public art subcommittee and the Arts and Culture Commission. Because such loans and donations are not subject to any community process, they should be judged to be of high quality and enduring value. Before considering any new offers of loaned or donated art to the City, the Commission should adopt a formal policy on gifts, donations, and loans of public art.

The developers of the Mill District expressed an interest in creating an overall plan for public art in that development. The City should encourage this direction and provide them with assistance in achieving that goal.

COMPREHENSIVE 10-YEAR PUBLIC ART MASTER PLAN
Once the public art program is underway in the short-term, the City should engage a public art planning consultant to develop a comprehensive and cohesive master plan and vision for future public art in Healdsburg. It should emerge as part of a thorough community engagement process.

arts and cultural spaces.

1. Create a network of multiple interconnected venues,
facilities, and cultural districts.

1.1. Build on the creative experiences and community
collaborations happening at the Healdsburg Community Center to expand arts and cultural programming, reach, and services.

1.2. Work with Corazon Healdsburg, other community groups, and the library to envision a “hatchery concept” for youth and young artists, providing a welcoming place with affordable instruction and guidance.

1.3. Explore opportunities for an incubator or maker space to be used for professional artists as well as community members interested in developing creative projects.

1.4. Conduct a feasibility study for cultural facilities and spaces that addresses the interrelated possibilities of a centralized cultural and performing arts center, cultural district(s), and the needs of existing venues.

1.5. Explore the development of an artists’ work-live space in partnership with a local developer or a nonprofit developer of arts spaces.

2. Facilitate solutions for existing cultural spaces.

2.1. Bring together funding and development partners to facilitate cultural facilities projects and district(s) that arise from the feasibility study or as community initiatives.

2.2. Explore the opportunity of profit and nonprofit space sharing, addressing finance issues for the nonprofit sector.

3. Collaborate with Healdsburg Parks design efforts to
enhance park spaces with arts and creativity.

3.1. Infuse arts and cultural activities into more parks throughout the city.

3.2. Consider parks as places for temporary art installations, engaging youth, the LatinX community, universal design
advocates, and all resident groups as part of the planning for installation projects.

3.3. Consider permanent public art in parks through communityengaged processes.

3.4. Ensure qualified art professionals are involved early in the design process for parks (Cross reference with Goal 4, 1.5)

CULTURAL SPACES
Arts stakeholders, community leaders, and philanthropists all express a desire for a range of cultural spaces. One is a new or renovated performing arts space centrally located in Healdsburg.

The community holds few performing arts spaces and many wish to see a high-quality space to accommodate larger audiences and provide more diverse productions. Additionally, community members want collaborative cultural spaces for artists, youth, and residents that also meets the needs of professional and emerging artists. Above all, residents aspire to cultural spaces that reflect the community’s values — accessible, affordable, and providing resources for all of Healdsburg.

Throughout the planning process, a consistent message emerged from community members, residents, and cultural groups that the Healdsburg Community Center is a highly valued, although underutilized, community asset and is a place where all community members feel safe and welcome. There is great potential to further develop it as an inclusive community cultural center.

CULTURAL DISTRICTS
Multiple spaces downtown and around the city provide opportunity to consider a collection of interconnected venues and facilities, meeting the aspirations of residents and the needs of artists and arts organizations. In fact, Healdsburg possesses strong potential for this approach, with a number of existing and possible cultural facilities in or near downtown. These could be connected into one or more cultural districts, even extending beyond the downtown area. Linking multiple facilities and venues would be “very Healdsburg,” emphasizing their intimate scale and diverse character, and fitting into the walkable, small-town character of the city.

Some in the community express the specific desire for a new centralized cultural arts center. This could be explored in place of or in combination with enhancements to existing venues.

By Holly Hoods, Healdsburg Museum and Historical Society Indigenous Art of Southern Pomo and Western Wappo
The diverse artistic talents and rich cultural traditions of the Southern Pomo and Western Wappo-speaking people have been linked to this land for thousands of years. The former Native village site of Kalé was located at the Healdsburg Plaza and to the west where Hotel Healdsburg stands today. Sheltered by oaks and madrones, the village took its name (“water midst”) from its location near the confluence of Dry Creek and the Russian River. For generations the people lived in settled, independent villages within recognized home territories with a well-developed culture, plentiful and varied diet, and a tradition of skilled basket weaving.

In the more recent past, Southern Pomo speakers have lived in the vicinity of Healdsburg, Alexander, and Dry Creek Valleys. Descendants of the First People still live in the local area, retaining strong personal ties to their homeland, oral traditions, and cultural heritage. Stories, songs, and dances are passed on by elders, reinforcing ancestral knowledge.

Using methods honed over generations, Native Pomo and Wappo basket makers are recognized as being among the finest basket makers in the world. Artfully combining form and function, basket makers from the local area employed two different basket weaving techniques—coiling and twining. Coiled basketry used both single rod and double rod coils, and was often decorated with brightly colored beads, shells, and feathers, such as woodpecker, oriole, quail, and mallard. Some work baskets were coiled so tightly that they could hold water without leaking. Twined baskets, such as double-mouthed fish traps or seedsifting baskets were generally made for rougher usage.

Weavers used up to twelve different materials to make their baskets, primarily willow (for the foundation) and sedge root, redbud bark, bulrush root and grey pine root fibers for the body.

Design elements in the weaving were enhanced by the contrasting colors. Redbud gave the baskets a beautiful red color. Bulrush root was often dyed black. Basket materials required up to a year of complex preparation, including harvesting, stripping, whittling, and drying.

At the turn of the 20th century, an art market developed for Pomo baskets in the United States.

Intricate and ornate baskets, some tinier than a thimble, were woven specifically to be sold at market. Indian basketry became highly collectable and some weavers were able to generate important income from sales of their work. An extensive collection of Pomo/Wappo basketry is held by the Healdsburg Museum and Historical Society and the Dry Creek Rancheria Band of Pomo Indians.

Both men and women wove, and still weave, baskets. The basket weavers’ ties to the land remain strong, adhering to traditional gathering practices.

Founding of Healdsburg, 1857
City founder Harmon G. Heald of Ohio arrived in Sonoma County in 1850. Heald built a cabin and trading post on the well-worn path heading northward to Gold Country, now Healdsburg Ave. Patronized by travelers, local Native people, and incoming settlers, “Heald’s Store” or 3 9.B.b
Packet Pg. 114 Attachment: Arts and Culture Master Plan_Appendix (3695 : Arts and Culture Master Plan Implementation) “Heald’s Station” soon featured a post office, blacksmith, a chair making and wagon shop and a few wood-frame houses. Heald bought land and filed the first town plat in 1857. He donated the land for the Plaza in the center of town and reserved lots nearby for a school, cemetery, and churches.

Within two years, Healdsburg had 120 houses, a private academy, a concert hall, and a population of 500. Many of the early townspeople were farmers. They celebrated harvest with agricultural festivals and fairs, as did the Native residents with their own seasonal celebrations.

People socialized through the Grange and their churches and made their own entertainment.

A Masonic Lodge was founded in 1857. Other fraternal organizations soon followed, as did singing, sports and amateur theater clubs. The clubs and organizations hosted picnics and barbeques, dances, and quilting bees.

Theaters and Performing Arts
In 1876 Ransom Powell acquired the Liberty Hall on Center Street. At the time it was the largest hall and roller-skating rink in the County. He quickly orchestrated an extensive renovation of the building, converting it to an elaborate theater. In addition to the required structural improvements, the new configuration included a mezzanine level, an orchestra pit, private viewing boxes, dressing rooms and various storage areas. The new theater could seat up to 500 people. At the time of its opening in early 1877, he also established "special rates...to Church and other local societies wishing to give benefit entertainments" so as to make it affordable for a wide variety of uses and making it "so popular that none need be denied its use."
By 1884, the City was attracting performers from across the United States. Early efforts of a cultural nature included halls and other performance spaces such as Truitt’s Opera House and Theater where vaudeville acts, lectures, musicians, and amateur and professional acting troupes were the bill of fare. Truitt’s Theater featured a 22’ x 18’ stage, seating 700. Amenities included conductor Lerch with his orchestra, a scenic painter, a theatrical teamster, and a set carpenter. In 1912, Truitt sold the theater to Robert Hansen, who promised, "It will be my purpose to give the amusement loving people of Healdsburg a place where they can enjoy good performances, and where they will be comfortably seated in a building warmed uniformly throughout."
As the 20th Century dawned, so did the growth of a new entertainment. First confined to nickelodeon enterprises where customers viewed flickers on machines, the silent movie era required auditorium or theater space. The M&M Theater opened in 1908 as a nickelodeon on West St (now Healdsburg Ave) and began showing silent films. It may have later been known as the Victory.

In 1918, it was announced that E.B. Deakin, Harry Tucker and Clyde Van DeVere will erect a “modern” theater on the site of a former livery stable. The new Liberty Theater opened to great fanfare on (what is today) Healdsburg Ave. in 1920. The Healdsburg Enterprise described it “with a seating capacity for 1000. The opera chairs are of the latest pattern and beautifully upholstered. The stage has dimensions that will accommodate any troupe of players that may come North of the Bay. The screen curtain is a “Diamond Crystal” of the latest make for perfect 4 9.B.b

The picture projector is an entirely new machine throwing a perfect reproduction on the screen. The room will be equipped with brilliant lights for the intermission periods.” An April 1930 article announced the theater would have its name changed from The Liberty Theater to the Plaza Theater after its conversion to a “Talkie Theater.” Movie bookings would be second run features following their big city debuts. The Plaza endured until 1954.

The Avon Theater opened on North St. in 1949 as a motion picture theater. Named as the owner’s wife’s name, “Neva,” spelled backwards, the theater was a popular destination for local kids and families for decades. It was purchased by Healdsburg Mayor and store owner Abel DeLuna in 1978. During DeLuna’s ownership, the theater served the local Spanishspeaking community by showing Spanish language films two days a week.

Meanwhile on Fitch Mountain, Jane Moore, owner of the Camp Rose Inn, founded the Camp Rose Players, an acting troupe in 1976. The 30-seat playhouse opened with "Josefa and Capt.

Fitch," a play Moore wrote that dramatized the life of Fitch Mountain's namesake, Henry Fitch, and his wife, Josefa Carrillo. Moore described how the tiny theater company gathered momentum:
“I began writing what was soon to become Josefa and Captain Fitch - a play with music.

As I continued to write, many of the restaurant “regulars” contributed their efforts including Vincent Campanella, who offered to help me whenever he dropped into town. Another customer, Bill Slattery, wrote all the original music. John Born drew our flyers and accompanied Bill Slattery on the marimba while Sara Anna played her violin.

Our restaurant’s downstairs area then began the conversion from basement to theater and stage. Chairs were purchased as the “As Is” yard at the Salvation Army. Tickets were printed by Gary Solem of Solem’s Appliance Store on his office copy machine…” Camp Rose Players presented more than 100 shows. Aside from a three-year break in the 1980s, Jane Moore produced 3 productions a year from 1976 until her death in 2012, which signified the end of Camp Rose Players.

In 1987, the Aven Movie Theater was remodeled by a new ownership group and became The Raven Performing Arts Theater. It became a community center, offering first-run and art house films, concerts, and a venue for local performance groups. Between 1988 -1998, under management of former music promoter Don Hyde, Healdsburg’s Raven Performing Arts Theater earned its growing reputation as “Best Theater North of the Golden Gate.” In 2000 falling attendance and increased competition forced the owners to put the Raven Theater building up for sale. A small group of local individuals worked to save the theater as a performance venue and in 2001 incorporated as Healdsburg Performing Arts Theater (H-PAT).

H-PAT entered into a lease/purchase agreement with the theater’s owners, exercised their option in 2005 and purchased the Raven for approximately $850,000. The theater is continually undergoing upgrades to its performance space, making the facility more versatile and audience- and performer-friendly.

Healdsburg Performing Arts Theater now operates under the name Raven Performing Arts Theater. Since the purchase of the Healdsburg building, this organization has grown to include 5 9.B.b
Packet Pg. 116 Attachment: Arts and Culture Master Plan_Appendix (3695 : Arts and Culture Master Plan Implementation) more than 100 volunteers and performers. More than 130 performances are presented annually. The “Mr. Healdsburg” Pageant was one of the Raven's most important fundraisers for 15 years, bringing in around $20K each year, produced by Carol Noack. “Dancing with the Stars” at the Raven ran from 2011 thru 2019. This entertaining and rousing couples’ dance competition netted over $300,000 for the Raven in its 8 year run. This was produced by Vera Harvey with co-producers Susan Degive, Tom Brand, and Joe Gellura. The Raven is now the performance home of the Raven Players, H-Town Youth Theater, and Healdsburg Jazz Festival, as well as annual school performances by Healdsburg Elementary School, Westside School, and St. John’s School.

History
The Healdsburg Museum and Historical Society (HM&HS) was founded in 1976 to record the history of the Healdsburg area through the collection and preservation of historical materials and to foster the appreciation of local history through programs and activities. Founder Edwin Langhart, City Clerk and archivist was the first HM&HS president and curator. The City collection was originally housed at City Hall and included photographs, paintings, artwork, historical documents, and Pomo basketry. Funded by the City, the Healdsburg Museum moved from 133 Matheson St. into the historic former Healdsburg Carnegie Library building at 221 Matheson St. in 1990. Budget cuts at the City ceased funding to the Museum in 1993. The Museum was saved by the Historical Society, which took over responsibility for managing the facility and caring for the City’s collection. The City deeded the collection to the HM&HS in 2016 but continues to insure the collection and maintain the historic Matheson St. property.

The HM&HS continues to operate today as a nonprofit history and arts organization, supported by a staff of three, a cadre of over 80 volunteers and an active Board of Directors. The Healdsburg Museum offers three rotating exhibitions per year free to the public and presents cultural and educational programming to the community.

Music
Over the years the City of Healdsburg and outdoor concerts have become almost synonymous. The Saturday night concerts in the Plaza provided entertainment for local citizens and visitors since the 1880s. Rural families came to town to listen and socialize. The merchants stayed open on those Saturday evenings so the parents could shop and then treat the children to something cool at the soda fountain.

The Russian River Brass Band was the first organized band here in the late 1850s. It is doubtful this band played in the Plaza, as back then the block donated to the City by Harmon Heald was still covered with oak and madrone trees. It was used mostly as a parking lot for wagons since there were no fountains, benches, or bandstands. The Russian River Brass Band was still in existence in 1866 when Professor Carl V. Wilmot became the conductor.

In 1873, the native trees were cleared from the Plaza and pines, fir and eucalyptus were planted. About five years later the bell tower and the first bandstand were built. By the mid1880s the Sotoyome Band was formed. In March 1888 this new band gave an open-air concert in the Plaza, the beginning of a series of Saturday night concerts. In 1891, the City Trustees granted the band the privilege of erecting a bandstand adjoining the bell tower and 6 9.B.b
Packet Pg. 117 Attachment: Arts and Culture Master Plan_Appendix (3695 : Arts and Culture Master Plan Implementation) furnishing benches for the audience’s comfort. Weekly Saturday evening band concerts started in May that year.

Although the band had only 15 members in 1891, they played a full concert of marches, waltzes, and other selections. The Sotoyome Band also played for dances. Not even an earthquake could stop the Saturday night concerts in the Plaza. Two months after the disastrous 1906 SF Earthquake, the band played two numbers by Healdsburg composers: “The Gaiety Girl March” by Will L. Livernash and a march-song, “The True Sons of ’49,” words by Arthur Price and music by Louis Meyer.

The band was reorganized in 1916 as the Healdsburg Brass Band. Even during the World War I years, the concerts were well attended. In May 1918, the Healdsburg Tribune reported, “Quite a number of persons drive to Healdsburg from Santa Rosa on Saturday evenings to enjoy the concerts given by the Municipal Band in the Plaza.” In the late 1920s, the Lytton Boys’ Band (Salvation Army Band) was providing the Saturday night music.

During the mid-1930s, the Depression years, the Healdsburg merchants signed a petition to abandon the concerts, as they did not bring enough profit to those businesses which contributed to the Chamber of Commerce and the concert fund. As a result, the Salvation Army Band discontinued their concerts in the Plaza. However, in 1937 Owen Sweeten was asked by the merchants and the City Council to organize and conduct summer concerts.

The Healdsburg Municipal Band concerts that Sweeten directed not only featured band music, they also starred local talent, both young and old, contests and other diversions, such as bathing beauties. They drew large crowds to the Plaza on Saturday nights. The Tribune reported that “close to 4,000 people attended the July 5th concert in 1941.” The “StarSpangled Banner” was played at the beginning and end of each concert.

The old bell tower, bandstand and fountain are gone and the gazebo on the east side of the Plaza now serves as the stage. In 1982, the Healdsburg Community Band was founded by Lew Sbrana and Doug and Judy Price. Some of the original members included: Larry and Judy Price on trombone, Milt Brandt and Guerdon Miller on drums, Tony Heitz on trumpet, Jason DeStefano a high school senior, on trumpet, and Doug Pile on clarinet. Lew Sbrana was the first conductor. In 1987, the Healdsburg Chamber of Commerce hosted a free weekday noontime concert in the Plaza. The “Picnic in the Plaza” series grew and offered nine concerts, including Elmo and the Hi-Rise Hillbillies, Hi-Jinks and the Community Band on summer Sunday afternoons. The summer concerts continued in 1995 as “A World of Music.” In 2004, a new format was introduced for the Summer Music Series, “Tuesdays in the Plaza!” Lynn Woznicki. C.E.O. of the Healdsburg Area Chamber of Commerce, championed the idea of changing the traditional Sunday afternoon concerts to Tuesday evenings. She gained support from merchants, locals and the Healdsburg Certified Farmers’ Market, hoping to create a more neighborly gathering at a cooler time of day, midweek. Concerts included Stompy Jones, the Sorentinos and Norton Buffalo. Concerts continue to be funded entirely by sponsors and private donors. Record crowds attest to the ongoing popularity of the Tuesday format. Despite being temporarily discontinued during the Covid pandemic, Music in the Plaza is a longstanding and much-loved local tradition.
7 9.B.b
Packet Pg. 118 Attachment: Arts and Culture Master Plan_Appendix (3695 : Arts and Culture Master Plan Implementation) Founded by Jessica Felix, the Healdsburg Jazz Festival began in 1999. A Jazz fan from a young age, Felix opened an art gallery five years called “All That Art and Jazz.” She started a nonprofit organization called “Jazz in Flight.” After meeting Felix was urged by Dan Zastrow, manager of the Raven Theater and Elizabeth Candelario, Executive Director of the Healdsburg Arts Council, to start the Jazz festival. In 1999, Candelario got the first sponsors and Zastrow provided the venue to launch the Jazz Festival. Over the next decade, the festival grew to attract major artists and a wide audience. Healdsburg Jazz Festival developed a national reputation for artistic excellence, hosting internationally acclaimed jazz musicians, showcasing the area’s foremost jazz performers and nurturing new talent.

Visual Arts
Sonoma County and Healdsburg has long attracted a thriving and talented visual arts community. Healdsburg was home to internationally recognized painter Richard Diebenkorn during his final years. The noted artist worked mostly in small scale and abstract at his Dry Creek Valley studio from 1988 until his death in 1993.

The Healdsburg Arts Council (HAC) was formed in 1993 to advance the arts and art education in the Healdsburg community and to further the community artists, writers and performers by providing performance opportunities, library readings, visual art presentations and educational workshops in the arts.

After years of producing pop up exhibitions and offering numerous classes and workshops for artists, art patrons and students, the Healdsburg Arts Council opened “Plaza Arts” in 2002 on Plaza Street. Fulfilling the top request in the 1999 Community Cultural Plan, the Plaza Arts facility became the home for a new visual arts gallery hosting exhibits and workshops, as well as providing space for local artists to display on an ongoing basis.

In 2003, the Jazz Festival left the umbrella organization to form its own nonprofit organization. and Plaza Arts received the IRS non-profit community benefit designation. Plaza Arts continued to grow, receiving community support through events such as Miniatures in the Manor and Opera in the Garden and an annual Healdsburg Art Festival. In 2010 Plaza Arts became Healdsburg Center for the Arts (HCA) and has gradually expanded the programs to include a gift area of artisan made work; growing the education program to include a mentoring program for artists and expanding the exhibitions with a nationwide call for artists for one exhibit a year. Ongoing art instruction includes after school programs and a 6-week summer art camp. One of the most popular exhibitions is the Young Artist Show, featuring works from ten area elementary schools, as well as the HCA youth education program.

In 2018, HCA hired its first paid Executive Director to expand the breadth and scope of activities, especially in public art and performing arts. A team of dedicated volunteers staffs the gallery, coordinates and assists at events, hangs exhibits, and serves in an advisory role to the Board. Completing the team is a contract Creative Education Coordinator and a Board of Directors that oversees and guides the organization.

Within the past 25 years, Healdsburg’s art scene has flourished. Healdsburg boasts nearly 20 art galleries. Not counting the Healdsburg Museum, the oldest gallery is the Erickson Fine Art 8 9.B.b
Packet Pg. 119 Attachment: Arts and Culture Master Plan_Appendix (3695 : Arts and Culture Master Plan Implementation) Gallery (324 Healdsburg Ave.), which opened in San Francisco in 1983, and moved to Healdsburg in 1997.

Public Art
In the late 20th century, public art in the form of permanent monuments to history appeared in the Healdsburg Plaza, memorializing local sports champions, the Sanborn family, fallen soldiers and heroic first responders. Before this, most of the public installations were primarily of a practical kind, such as the Ladies Improvement Club artistic drinking fountain of 1901 and the Plaza Street sidewalk clock from the 1920s.

Public art has flourished in the past 15 years, with encouragement by the City of Healdsburg. In 2007, the City adopted a public arts policy to guide the installation of artwork in public spaces for long-term installations. As part of the City celebration of the sesquicentennial in 2007, artist Carlos Perez painted a mural about local history on the Masonic Lodge at the northwest corner of Center and Plaza Sts. The first phase of the art at the Foss Creek Pathway was dedicated in 2006 by Healdsburg Mayor Mike McGuire and Voigt Family Sculpture Foundation Founder Al Voigt. The second section was dedicated in 2007 by Congressman Mike Thompson and Al Voigt. The art will be on display for an indefinite period, and new works have been installed along the Pathway as new sections are constructed. In 2010, the Voigt Family Sculpture Foundation installed “Aero-5,” a stainless-steel kinetic sculpture made by Moto Ohtake in the West Plaza.

In 2018, a temporary public arts installation program was introduced as a pilot program, which is now the City policy. Under the current guidelines, temporary art installations are allowed in parks (in a designated location) under a permit issued by the Community Services Director. In 2021, the City of Healdsburg is engaging with the arts and culture stakeholders to develop a new arts and culture community plan to support, develop and promote the vibrant arts community of Healdsburg and the surrounding area. 10 9.B.b

A sample of comments

Continue to develop diversity of arts and
culture events and venues in Healdsburg.

Continue to develop affordable housing for
artists and service community.

Continue to make Healdsburg a place of
opportunity and inclusion, not exclusive
and out-of-reach.

Build a diverse, vibrant, and multifaceted
community for all ages, all cultures/races,
and economic levels - out of many one
community.

Create a context where the arts are
considered in all City investments and
processes. Especially in the planning
process.

Developing inclusive arts and cultural
opportunities for the minority groups in
Healdsburg is important, its important to
know that its important to celebrate our
culture outside of our homes.

To cultivate Healdsburg externally as a
nationally recognized arts destination and
to foster the power and beauty of the
creative spirit within our community as
part of our identity.

Draw people (locals and tourists) to
Healdsburg for more than just the wine
and restaurants. Create an artistic identity
for the city.

Enhance Healdsburg reputation as a
culinary and cultural center.

Give younger people a way to express
themselves through hands-on art.

Healdsburg should support the visual arts
through a new or renovated facility that
would provide spaces for year-round art
classes.

I think that it is important to keep the
needs of the residents of Healdsburg in the
forefront of any plans for a cultural space.

A space that encourages visitors is great,
but it is most important to support
community needs.

I want this plan to bring more of our
community together. I do not just mean
more events I mean all ethnicities and
races coming together.

I would hope that it be more connected
with genuine art and creativity, especially
music. That it be less 'pop' and schlock and
more genuine, cutting edge and
idiosyncratic.

Please address the fact that the people
who provide services, such as creativity
and artistic income and tourist attractions,
cannot live and work in Healdsburg. In five
years, can you be implementing some
solutions.

Those creative events or experiences that

of ourselves and our fellow citizens
Vibrant downtown atmosphere. Worldwide
reputation for rich and memorable arts
experiences worth traveling for.

VERY white dominated
Creativity in looking at the splendid nature
around us and figuring out how to create a
vibrant, thriving natural world. There is
creativity in making things, not just
painting and sculpture but inventing things
(e.g., maker spaces for electronics as well
as crafts, welding, etc.), perhaps
experimenting with fashion couture, or
making music in new ways; creating art,
games and music using computer
technology; presenting poetry slams or
other performance art - basically,
whatever would attract kids and young
women and men to give them a place to
belong and be creative
It's there, but I have to dig to find it. As a
new resident I don't know what's available.

I notice a lot of small art programs popping
up but not of the caliber I expect.

Healdsburg has a great art and cultural
heritage but the only artwork I see is what
is for sale in private galleries. Is there a
physical place I can learn and discover
more of it?
The Glue. We are all pent up. The focus on a
monoculture. Got to get back to the arts as a
means to express not impress. Our guests,
the visitors of our town, need to see more of
our local experience. I define Healdsburg art
and creativity as the synthesis of what it
means to live here. Our shared geography
and the Tie That Binds Us Together!
My definition of arts and creativity in
Healdsburg is creatively enhancing what we
already have in the town by adding more
activities more food(culinary) by which we
can support businesses and increase revenue
to support more activities.

My definition is a city that is colorful and
looks alive with color and have areas that
draws one into. It could be more interesting
nooks and crannies around town. I think it is
very important to draw people away from
the Plaza down towards railroads tracks
area, and northern areas.

I envision places and opportunities for local
artists (especially young people) to share
their talents in an accessible and affordable
way, and an environment that promotes
ease and awareness for those in the
community who appreciate art and wish to
partake of it, see/hear/experience it.

For me, creativity comes first... it's an
inspired process that requires space,
practice, tension, quiet, courage, play, and
depth. It's deeply personal, sometimes
joyful. Sometimes the result—art, is a gift to
give... and receive. Please don't trivialize the
act into an attraction for a buck. Be artful in
your consideration of what the City is
offering. That, would be really cool.

• Great participation in survey from younger generations of Healdsburg
• High priority is creating more opportunities for youth and young residents and providing more local arts and culture experiences throughout Healdsburg.
• Opportunity exists to improve the ratings of creative events/activities, and to eliminate barriers to participation. The overall ratings of events are low.
• Respondents want more variety and higher quality arts experiences.

There is evidence that one of the barriers to participation is a lack of interest in current offerings.
• High priority is supporting creative sector workers in community with a specific focus on ways to retain and support creative workers, artists, and businesses.
• Significant support for renovating existing spaces for arts and cultural uses and community collaboration.
• Respondents are concerned with the balance of activities that may bring more tourists and want to see activities focused on residents. • The needs of artists vary depending on stage of career. Comments indicated older, more established artists do not have space or exhibition needs, although they support initiatives for emerging artists.

Packet Pg. 147 Attachment: Arts and Culture Master Plan_Appendix (3695 : Arts and Culture Master Plan Survey Question: Thinking ahead 5 or more years, please describe ONE THING you want this plan to do for Healdsburg? (What will be different and better?)
A better venue for music and art education.
a big area where anyone can put up any art and murals/graffitied but only good and nice things.

A big park and artificial turf football/soccer field for doing sports.

A completed NEW performing arts center and gallery
A hang out spot where everyone of all ages is welcome could help bring the community together over years.

A lot more color because I feel like Healdsburg has to many neutral colors and not enough of different colors A new performing arts center that is large enough to house many different types of productions.

A performing arts center
A shift in the identity of the town (and its appeal to tourists, it's 'brand’) that de-emphasizes expensive tastes and instead broadens its appeal to people from other, lower income brackets and cultural interests.

A stringer multi-cultural art presence Attracting High quality installations events etc.

A variety of activities for all ages at low cost
Affordable community classes and activities involving all sectors of our city's residents Affordable Housing.

All people to express themselves through art or be able to use it as an escape an art program for everyone
An authentic art/culture plan will improve our ability to imagine and think creatively, both individually and together. With a shared vision for a Healdsburg that honors all its residents we are on the path to face the looming environmental and equity issues with flexibility, pragmatism, and compassion. Central to this plan could be the establishment of a school that values imaginative and practical solutions to our challenges/ and supports students as future active residents.

An easy way for everyone to participate in making art. such as a public mural.

Art and creative opportunities will be as diverse as it's residence. art programs

Can you please make some place in Healdsburg with ceramics equipment where people could go and make things with clay without needing thousands of dollars?
Catching the sparks and ideas that ignited among Healdsburg's artists and 'non-artists' during the quiet introspection of covid.

Providing avenues of space, tools, instruction & support to fan all those creative flames. Watching self-confidence bloom in the creation of new art. And sharing joy throughout the community, having nurtured that growth together. Polishing up the silver lining of this long period of isolation and coming together out of quarantine to a new and better place for the whole of the community. What a beautiful souvenir it will be to look back from sometime in the future and see what good was borne of such difficulty! Continue to build reputation as a place to live/visit that supports a variety of arts and cultural opportunities Continue to develop diversity of arts and culture events and venues in Healdsburg. Continue to develop affordable housing for artists and service community. Continue to make Healdsburg a place of opportunity and inclusion, not exclusive and out-of-reach.

continuing to enrich, while enhancing our community
Coordinate visual arts presence, including all galleries (for profit, NPO). Art walks, Art talks, Art district. Focus more on supporting local arts and artists than tourists.

Create a context where the arts are considered in all City investments and processes. Especially in the planning process. create more diversity in offerings
create more places for artists and performers, and more opportunities for exposure and participation by all ages CTE
Develop a semiprofessional theater company that creates adult and children theater. Develop a Theater arts training program for Shakespeare and theater in the park. Develop a quality concert and music program at the wineries.

Developing inclusive arts and cultural opportunities for the minority groups in Healdsburg is important, it’s important to know that it’s important to celebrate our culture outside of our homes.

Development of a state-of-the-art community, cultural, diverse, and inclusive public gathering place for music, performing arts, visual arts, events, galas, and education. Future generations of Healdsburg should have the opportunity to have a safe space where they can try out new creative endeavors to expand and refine their talents. We need to think creatively and be a model that other cities look to for inspiration. That is a future for Healdsburg that I would like to see.

Diversify the economic structure of the city.

Draw people (locals and tourists) to Healdsburg for more than just the wine and restaurants. Create an artistic identity for the city.

Educate those ignorant to how the arts may improve everyone's life through demonstration: outdoor sculpture, permanent or temporary presentations at the plaza of art contests for the youth, concerts, movies artist-driven concepts for the arts (like the Christmas. light program 2020 Dec) need a budget for this that directly pays the artist Emphasize walking to the arts over driving.

Encourage a variety of art experiences available to residents and visitors encourage all to be accepting of others and to encourage a heartful temperament Engage kids and encourage them to create art.
engage the community
Enhance creativity and arts to benefit the broadest range of the community, improving access and opportunities for kids and families Enhance Healdsburg reputation as a culinary and cultural center.

Enhance performing arts events and opportunities.

Enhance the cultural and performance arts for the city
Enriched lives for locals and visitors alike
Establish an arts, crafts and design school and plan for low income, live/work housing that suits makers m, workers, and students.

Everyone in Healdsburg should be interested in doing art. If they aren't good at it, they can at least try to do something.

Expanded rage of artistic/cultural offerings, convenient and affordable, inviting to a wide range of Healdsburg Expanded/additional arts spaces are likely to increase community/visitor attendance/participation.

Expose visitors and locals alike with visible manifestations of art all around town. More music, more sculpture, more painting, more that can be shared regardless of income level. Our restaurants are great, but expensive. We don't need to have 6 Michelin-starred places here.

Find some event where the community can come together and have fun, while having enough space or few enough people to not be crowded. Something everyone will have fun at that is like a year round fair for everyone.

Focus on expanding art opportunities for ALL community members Focus on residents.

For the community a renovated arts center would be amazing for the pride and support for town identity, but also an attraction for tourism to cross-market different types of art, opportunities, and support for all kinds of art. Currently the one-off events come and go in a weekend (sometimes without knowing about it) or there are events all over town too (art galleries, performing arts, music).

Cross marketing of art in town is essential to support all artists and businesses.

Fund and Give our diverse youth an opportunity for to engage in culturally diverse arts, dance, music, and theater Funding to be appropriately budgeted

have a variety of arts and cultural programs available that bring the community together Have more open and well-funded cultural engagement opportunities for underrepresented communities Have more places to show off people's art
Have more things to do like an amusement park
HHBG should support the visual arts through a new or renovated facility that would provide spaces for year-round art classes.

Headline: The City of Healdsburg elevates Creativity to solve the challenges of our times! Creativity is not just silly! It is the most important thing for survival and thrival. With the best plan ever, all residents utilize many outlets to express themselves, connect with new people, and leverage the abundance of our town to be healthy and vibrant. We have the potential to step into the next era with art being an integral part of climate justice and social justice. We can take the lead to take a stand and lead other towns of similar size forward!
Healdsburg is great for tourists who come to drink win and enjoy the art. What Healdsburg lacks are things for younger people to do.

What Healdsburg should have been a place where children or teens can go to have fun.

Healdsburg perceived as art centric, not just wine centric.

Healdsburg still has a small town feel even though it’s dominated by tourism, I believe it’s necessary to keep the activities in the square available and affordable for the guests and the public. But if there is a cost, try and have the guests/tourists pay for it! It's a treat to visit Healdsburg, the residents should not have to pay for the tourists impact on their city.

Healdsburg will be known and valued as a creative destination.

Healdsburg will be known not just for its wines and restaurants. It will be known as a center of art and culture.

Help with more community events that will involve families Hopefully engage children into loving their culture and find a love for art.

I am thinking back 5 years why this is still a topic. I am contacting city council today feel something is up again to disrupt what we already thought we have achieved.

I don't know
I don't now
I envision arts and culture as means to bring Healdsburg together.

I guess I'd just like the plan to make it easier for artists, musicians, and writers to present their work. And for residents and visitors to enjoy the fruit of their labor. Sorry to be so vague, but that's what I've got...

I hope it can create easier access to artistic endeavors for the community.

I hope there is a stronger incentive of love and appreciation for art in lower income communities in Healdsburg. I hope to see murals to help the culture around that does not cater to the delicate tongue of tourism but comes from the soft heart of the community. I would also like to see experiences and opportunities in art be extended to all the people at a sustainable, fair, and affordable cost.

I HOPE THERE ARE MORE MURALS.

I hope this plan will be able to develop an art walk across the town, to showcase the artists we have in our town.

I plan to make Healdsburg feel like home again. Our town is surrounded by tourists now that we can’t enjoy anything here.

I really would like Healdsburg to be known not just as a wine tasting town that people go to for the weekend it would be nice if it was more artsy and accessible to young people (5-18)
I suspect this survey is to gauge the public's support for turning the former Shed facility into a new arts venue. This is fine if the activities there are inclusive of all residents, especially vineyard workers, laborers, those on fixed incomes, and middle class residents and their families. In other words, it would be a shame if the events held there--or anywhere in town, for that matter--were tailored only to those who are wealthy and well-educated to attract funders and patrons. I sometimes feel that the City is more interested in making our small town more upscale (see Montage and the new restaurants and hotels downtown) and that it neglects those on the other side of the tracks.

I think it would be wonderful to have a space that draws talent from all areas and features regular performances in music, plays, musical theater, poetry, etc.

I think that in the future this plan should focus more on providing opportunities for youth to be involved in the visual and preforming arts. For me personally, I was a dancer for 12 years of my life. When I moved to Healdsburg, I found myself leaving school early each day to drive to Santa Rosa for dance practice. This is one of the main reasons I eventually ended up quitting dance all together. I know there is a small dance studio next to the high school, and I did go there for a bit, but there were many reasons that I along with many of the 39 9.B.b

other dancers, eventually ended up switching studios. I think that the same goes for acting and theater in Healdsburg. I feel like it all is overlooked, and the kids I know who are very into preforming all end up going out of town, usually to Santa Rosa, to do so. Healdsburg High doesn't even have a theater or dance program. I am not sure if this is really what this survey is geared towards, but I think that the visual and preforming arts in Healdsburg are lacking and should be focused on more in the future.

I think that it is important to keep the needs of the residents of Healdsburg in the forefront of any plans for a cultural space. A space that encourages visitors is great, but it is most important to support community needs.

I think that there should be a plan in place to help with the development of aspiring artists may it be in combat sports or drawing. I think there should be a place where people could go to learn skills that could make their future such as a how-to-draw class or a training camp for combat sports artists.

I think that there will be more people in Healdsburg expressing themselves through art in five years and I think that art programs that already exist will be better
I think what they should, but more is activities for younger kids to do, have more artwork and just have a better system.

I want Healdsburg to be full of art and people's creative mind. Maybe some stuff painted on the sidewalks to show a more creative side of the town.

I want it to implement a performing arts program as well as more varieties of art and creative activities to do in Healdsburg I want more people to be included such as the youth of Healdsburg.

I want people to visit Healdsburg for the art and then discover the wine and food as a bonus I want this plan to be able to keep kids and families in town.

I want this plan to bring more of our community together. I do not just mean more events I mean all ethnicities and races coming together.

I want this plan to bring the community together.

I want this plan to have more visitors and to have more art in this town.

I want this plan to retain artists and to grow art and culture throughout the City.

I want this plan to support and expand the cultural options in the city of Healdsburg.

I want to city to embrace and support the Arts as vigorously as it does wine and food - from the population to developers through city government.

I want to have more camps.

I want to see it build more varieties of performing arts spaces throughout not only the plaza but all of Healdsburg in total.

I would hope that it be more connected with genuine art and creativity, especially music. That it be less 'pop' and schlock and more genuine, cutting edge and idiosyncratic.

I would like for every building that I walk into to have unique and meaningful art pieces with a history and story. Additionally, spaces that are actively being used to further creative endeavors in public spaces I would like to see more events for young ones and families with creative art and activities. I think we need to encourage young ones to be creative.

I would like to see more opportunities for local businesses and activities that branch out of more than just the plaza.

I would love this plan to bring arts and culture to ALL residents. It will be more diverse and inclusive.

I would love to see the town recognized as an art/ music venue rather than just wine.

I would very much like to be able to get involved with local and community arts once the pandemic is past us. I was involved when I lived in Tulare County before moving here and miss that aspect of the community. So, I'm hoping in 5 years the plan will somehow include me! :-)
I'd really like to have moved sculptures, the kind that people can move around town. You could make them heavy so people didn't move so far, but wouldn't it be so cool if you were in one place and saw a sculpture and then you came back, and it was on the other side of the plaza.

Ideally, this plan will bring more tourists into Healdsburg, thus bringing money into our local economy.

Idk
if there is a cultural arts center, it should be good and adequate venue to attract top talent so we can experience live performance of good caliber artists
I’m not planning on doing anything for Healdsburg
Improve race relations.

In 5 years, an arts and cultural plan for Healdsburg can promote the 'outside the box' thinking needed to move forward on addressing environmental and equity issues with wild and pragmatic wisdom. If we can't imagine a better world, we'll continue living in the one 40 9.B.b

that is past its freshness date. Art is a way of viewing life, not merely a commodity. It doesn't discriminate based on age, background, or income. For example, Indigenous
In 5 years, I would like to see Healdsburg renovated and have art displayed around town and more art galleries that are affordable for all residents.

In the future I hope for this plan to just have a larger and more accessible place for people to be creative and have fun. I also hope that it will allow people who are very passionate about art to be able to practice it more without the restrictions of what you may be doing in school or your space at home.

In the next five years, I would like Healdsburg to be, overall, more involved in the arts to the point where all residents have various art programs available to them (photography, performing arts, fine arts, etc.). Right now, most of the art related activities in Healdsburg seem to be catered mainly toward tourists as tourist attractions rather than true creative spaces for anyone to express themselves artistically.

Include everyone in the community, no language barriers.

Incorporate art into Healdsburg's Parks & Rec offerings. Equal attention should be given to art classes as sports classes.

Increase the amount of semipermanent public outdoor art exhibits Increase the level of community-wide participation and enjoyment of creative and artistic activities by 100 percent.

Interactive art in Healdsburg.

Invite other counties to participate and share their creative efforts here. Have an international aspect that opens Healdsburg up to a bigger picture.

Is there any way Healdsburg can bring some form of opera (classical- not country) to our city? It seems to me that the city is quite short of classical musical events. Could we please have more? Maybe work in conjunction with music in the vineyards to bring some of their music to Healdsburg.
it would be great if there was a building where people can go paint or buy paintings.

It would be great to see a type of maker space in Healdsburg. Either a maker space or more culinary creativity. Many people have great dishes but in a competition of many fast-food restaurants and tourist restaurants, it would be hard to compete. Being able to support more people with culinary talent would make a great addition to the community and could encourage people to share what they have.

It would be great to see residents all ages and colors and cultures in the plaza or other parks/locations, having celebrations throughout the year, be it art, music and/or dance.

It would give the town a lift in another direction. We focus so much on wine tasting and restaurants, wouldn't it be wonderful to be known for our arts culture?
Just want to be able to go to more exciting art exhibitions. keep art quality high.

Keeping our own community as priority, above that of visitors Larger space for outdoor concerts
leave Healdsburg
Leave it to the private sector with government support.

Less expensive Art things
Less wine, more theatrical performances
Let Healdsburg be known as THE place for artistic endeavors.

Local community will be stronger and more unified. People will help each other more Low cost/sliding cost or free spaces for artists, art exhibitions and performances. Widely disseminated information re events and opportunities. Opportunities open to wider audience. Good public art program should enhance city throughout its neighborhoods (not just 'plop' art on square, for example).
maintain small town flavor
Make arts and creative activities/events a part of the local culture and available to all, across generations, cultures, and income levels.

patrons is organic and doesn't have to rely largely on tourists. Replace some tasting rooms with galleries. (get to a better balance.) Make the plaza and adjoining streets pedestrian-only with parking provided on the periphery of town.

Make it a town where everyone wants to visit! Add more places for teens to hang out.

Make it creative
Make it fun and exciting
Make it more fun for young people
Maximize the use of existing spaces and organizations first and then fill in the gaps with new initiatives.

Maybe have an artist present on evenings at the square that could involve kids in a certain type of art.

More varied and distributed public art, funded by a tax on new development. 0.5/1.0% More vibrancy - more interactive experiences that involve local community More visible art around town...inclusive diverse art events in the plaza...

More youth involved with the community.

Move away from an alcohol based tourist destination, focus more on creative arts Move forward with the already planned and approved multi use space next to the shed. Having worked in and been part of management in multi-use spaces. The potential for developing a creative program schedule to a coma date a wide range of events and uses.

One thing I plan to do for Healdsburg is to make it feel like home again. Our town is surrounded by tourists and none of us feel like we can enjoy anything in this town because they take over.

One thing I want this plan to do for Healdsburg would be creating programs for people who wish to draw or study the history of art.

Also, these programs would be available for the youth. That is something I would like to see. This will help build connections with other people and come together as a family.

One thing I want this plan to do for Healdsburg would be to establish programs for the young people who wish to learn more about Art or the history of it. I think programs would bring many smiles to many people. It would be able to bring people together and unite everyone as a family. Not to mention, it would be better if these programs benefited people later with their art careers. Programs that help people with their art careers would be great.

One thing I want to add to Healdsburg is a soccer field but with real grass. I want this because my dad is on a soccer team clad pisco and the fake grass makes the grass go too fast.

One thing is challenging but I hope the value is inclusive and reflective of Healdsburg's agricultural roots. one thing that I want to see in 5 or more years in Healdsburg is a public pool that’s just for the people who live in Healdsburg full time. I also want Healdsburg to make houses and places to live for homeless and for everyone from Healdsburg or nearby towns or people in Sonoma county who have lost their homes in fires or if they lost their jobs and or business homes or anything else from covid to help them and to help small local business and locals who make crafts or art and things like that Parallel the success of the Jazz Festival in attracting the talent and audiences for other cultural events. That would include a movie theater comparable to the Rialto in Sebastopol.

Plan events that include residents and do not negatively impact the environment and small town city feel.

Please address the fact that the people who provide services, such as creativity and artistic income and tourist attractions, cannot live and work in Healdsburg. In five years, can you be implementing some solutions.

Promote new artists rather than be a local club for old timers.

Provide a space for artists to create, nurture and perform.

Provide both working spaces for artists and arts center.

Provide enrichment for all our residents, have spaces for collaboration and fun!! Provide more affordable arts and cultural opportunities.

Provide more combined cultural experiences by including the arts, culinary arts, viticulture, and visual arts together. Maybe create an 'Art Walk', 'Town Walk’, progressive dinner walk, or Artists Tour by cars.

Provide more public art.

Public arts program
Put a strategy together which guides the city's government body's policies and project approvals, including a multi-talented/faceted advisory and authority to oversee the prioritization, financing and delivery of arts and culture in the community.

Put Healdsburg on the map as a cultural/arts city

Renovate the Raven and turn it into a multi-use, creative space Renovate the Raven Film Theater and bring movies back to Healdsburg.

Renovate the Raven! Then once it's usable space, bring in more music. Thanks! And here's to you, Claire! Safe place for expression
Seeing it explode into a creative center that has no equal on the planet.

Showcasing artists and events from outside Healdsburg by bringing in more diverse and experimental artists.

Since Healdsburg is a destination for wine tasting and river activities, and there is a local following for the arts, people staying in Healdsburg for vacation have more choices for entertainment. Plus, they can bring their kids to the workshops and participate themselves. No need to drive anywhere else. Healdsburg will have it all.

Somewhere in Healdsburg there is an activity EVERY weekend that falls within the boundaries of an Art and Cultural experience, event, or opportunity. The theater is being used, the galleries are showcasing a new artist, a street is closed for a public performance, there is something happening in the Gazebo. There is someone playing music in the Plaza almost all the time.

Spread it out so that all folks have access not just downtown spread more positivity
Supplement public education with opportunities for youth to learn the arts Support a depth of creative inspiration by providing a variety of places for people to work, experiment, and learn within. In this way, the City will sponsor an openhanded invitation to connectedness and community through the practice of the arts.

Support our residents’ interests in arts and cultural activities. Make these activities available and interesting to all residents and all ages. 43 9.B.b

Tourists are also important, so they should also be available for them to participate in. I think we need a better balance between residents and tourists. Healdsburg needs tourists to support all the restaurants, shops and tasting rooms. But these places are also appealing to locals and they should be accessible and affordable for them, as well.

The character of the city is broadened to offer world class interfaces with the arts.

The cost of art classes should be lowered.
the galleries here are not really for locals or youth, just to sell paintings to rich tourists, I think there should be a less exclusive one The town will grow rapidly and change after the new housing development is completed. I have no idea what will be 'better' at that time.

Note: I have lived here for 40 years so biased.

There better be a fair of some sorts like in Cloverdale or Santa Rosa Thinking ahead 5 more years I want to start helping the community This plan should contribute to making living in HB sustainable for residents. Right now, it feels like HB caters to tourists and little attention is paid to what makes a sustainable community. It seems very likely that, to have a healthy, sustainable city, residents of all socioeconomic levels and backgrounds should be able to participate meaningfully in the community - and opportunities to be creative could very well be the most important means to reach that goal. HBG needs to take the pulse of the community every year no matter what arts and culture plan results; being nimble and able to adapt to residents' changing needs and desires should be built into any plan.

A big shiny new performing arts building won't accomplish this even though big donors seems to love building buildings.

To better communicate the opportunities to participate in the arts no matter your background, age etc.

To bring the city together and share both arts, seeds, music, and ideas. More community cross involvement To cultivate Healdsburg externally as a nationally recognized arts destination and to foster the power and beauty of the creative spirit within our community as part of our identity.

To have an In-n-out
To have more diversity in the audience who appreciate arts and culture Unite all the different efforts and programs in the city into one place where visitors and residents can easily find ways to participate in and support the arts.

Unite the cultural divide
Visitors would see Healdsburg as an artist’s community.

We will use art and creativity to build bridges across divides in our community.

Wide and widely publicized selection of artistic and cultural activities will be offered.

Would hope it's more open to anyone interested in showing their work Young inclusion

A group to support the existing and new local artists and showcase their work to locals and visitors.

A place that supports artistic expression and education for its residences!! A unified statement of the people and the land. Anesthetic definition to act as a foundation to erect fine art rather than poorly made murals (Plaza across from Art Center) and odd sculptures. a variety of works representing multi-cultural themes
A very active arts community of open artists studios with workshops in painting, drawing, mosaics.... Full season of plays as we have had at the Raven, but with two spaces one main stage and one smaller for studio plays. For the summer Shakespeare, a workshop with kids and parents. Musicians offering daily demonstrations and small combos playing classical music in the plaza. Open mic nights for new comedians in one of the cafes, then new musicians, then poetry slams in the art galleries. More new play readings.
ability to attend local plays and music in public or affordable private venues activities that you must think when doing it

Art and creativity are where the mind and soul combine to discover, imagine, and explore the past and present. It's a vessel to transport us on our own journey or to enjoy with companions. Healdsburg is a port in life's storm.

Art and creativity in Healdsburg is strong. There are so many talented residents. I'm glad the city is usually receptive about artistic opportunities.

Art in square seems most successful and welcoming...like the music & fairs. Need to expand beyond the square. Jazz festival very successful but needs to be affordable to lower income residents.

Art in the dark, music in the plaza, day of the dead event.

Art is exiting, happy. It can be special help protests and make others happy. It gives better days and is a great activity Art is expressed throughout Healdsburg. There are many things that adults can tour around but there is not enough for children or the youth to do. Something that really gets the interest of younger people are LED lights placed around town which are amazing for pictures. The thing is that teens do not have much to do in Healdsburg and there is not much opportunity to get out there.
art is something someone can create, and creativity is when someone has a vision in their head, and they can bring it out to life.

Arts and creativity in Healdsburg is one of a kind. We need to grow it! Arts and creativity in Healdsburg is very important for the community and it should be a priority. As of now, arts and creativity in Healdsburg usually relates to small concerts in the plaza or other various tourist attractions.

Arts and creativity make Healdsburg money, and draw in tourist dollars, but most artists even successful ones can't afford to live *or* work there based on their work alone, so Healdsburg has just become a selling venue for them like other tourist 45 9.B.b

cities. If you want to attract artists, then you should make the city hospitable to their needs. The affordability issue is not new. Permits and zoning is not new.

Arts and creativity provide an area of expression and love for community through it. The most material art in Healdsburg is based on boujee metallic abstracts that do not provide any human comfort or joy to see as the community feels disconnected from them. We need more color and humanity in our art! Arts and creativity should strive to be interactive, thought provoking, and accessible to all residents.

Arts and Creativity to me is any way of externalizing and processing emotions or emotional experiences.

Arts and music of different cultures and backgrounds focused on different ethnicity in HBG today. Do we know what others besides Latinx live in HBG? How could we bring that forward? Arts are the multi-faceted products of people who have been not just inspired to create but encouraged, supported, exposed to the possibilities. Creativity belongs to each one of us, untapped, unexplored, or flourishing and is a powerful tool we can use to expand ourselves, our communities, our sense of place and to promote a collective identity of creators who have space to exist.

Arts is what someone may be able to create, the talent that they have. Creativity is when someone comes up with ideas and they use their skills to bring them to life.

Arts mean live performances of music, plays, dance, etc. creativity to me means artistic ability and being able to showcase it whether in paint, paper, etc.

Arts should be an inclusive and eclectic thread that ties the members of our community together through visual, performing, and written arts activities. The arts should be available to all and be reflective of the many colors of our community.

As an out-of-towner I appreciate the fine dining and the Raven Theater. I haven't had a chance to experience other activities.

As it exists, I think it is too tourist oriented. This town is already inundated with tourists; and arts and 'creativity'' should be more connected with people who live here
Aside from the Tuesdays on the plaza concerts, the city of Healdsburg does little to promote or enhance creative opportunities or exposure to the arts. Most of the opportunities to enjoy the arts are available only through the efforts of private enterprise i.e. The Raven players, local galleries, or arts organizations. I'd like to see the City do more to support and promote events and most importantly, provide a space for arts events to take place. It would be great to see a performing arts space that also provides space for art studios and a maker's space. It would be nice if the city focused on that instead of finding a permanent home for farmer’s market.

beautiful, unique arts and quiet, calming places to relax.

Brings people together, making long lasting, beautiful memories Budding potential to make Healdsburg stand out as a destination and best place to live for arts and creativity for locals and tourists (and as something besides wine/alcohol consumption) Community oriented cultural and educational opportunities Concerts Public art Maker workshops Children’s classes Affordable art instruction Cooking classes for kids, art and crafts for family, outdoor activities for families Could be better
COVID has thrown everything off course but even before the pandemic Healdsburg needed an arts and cultural space creative
Creative and interesting art comes from having a critical mass community of artists and I would love to see Healdsburg take concrete steps to support the formation of such a community, but I am not optimistic given current development trends in Healdsburg
Creative arts are so important for all communities not just Healdsburg. We need to keep them alive! Creative expressions that inspire and nourish the soul and connect people more deeply to the world by opening them to new ways of seeing, listening, and appreciating.

Currently--creativity is for the wealthy, or not to be interacted with. The Vision--creativity enriches everyone's lives, creates a platform for the most important of conversations, and gives meaning and unique place fullness to our town. 46 9.B.b

different fun awesome
Drawing
Drawing, paintings, murals

Expressing alternative visions of the human experience.

Expression and appreciation of visual, performing, and cultural arts.

Expression that brings us together as a community.

Expressive Free
Films, live theater, music performances, culinary.
fine
Fine art- painting, sketching, etc. Crafts- pottery, metal arts, etc. Music For me, creativity comes first... it's an inspired process that requires space, practice, tension, quiet, courage, play, and depth.

It's deeply personal, sometimes joyful. Sometimes the result—art, is a gift to give... and receive. Please don't trivialize the act into an attraction for a buck. Be artful in your consideration of what the City is offering. That, would be cool.

For the elite, older white folks
Freedom of expression that's tame enough for the public From what I've seen and personally experienced, currently It is a little pretentious & catered to tourism (which I understand) & elite population (which I detest), but ideally it would also more inclusive & family friendly for the average Healdsburg resident and surrounding communities.

Having art easily available to perform and see for residents and tourists in many different forms Having fun and expressing the love we have for this town through art.

Healdsburg art is creative, and always has a little secret in the corners of the art pieces Healdsburg is a great place to eat and be entertained. A summer Shakes spear series in the park would be a good addition.

Hire a new director for raven theater and do more high quality and relevant productions Healdsburg is full of creativity in all the fields. Art, music, food, wine, architecture, flowers, and agriculture are thriving and need more exposure to the residents and tourists.

Healdsburg should be considered a destination city for the arts and arts programming.

Healdsburg sits in a beautiful setting. Surrounded by beauty it should be represented by the highest quality of visual art and music.
high quality
I don't get to see much just because I can’t go out. From what I know there are a few places that have art involved.

I don't have one
I don't know
I don't know about any of this or see any of it.

I don't really see them enough to talk about the creativity in Healdsburg I envision places and opportunities for local artists (especially young people) to share their talents in an accessible and affordable way, and an environment that promotes ease and awareness for those in the community who appreciate art and wish to partake of it, see/hear/experience it.

I feel like Healdsburg is all about wine and wine activities, which leaves out a large amount of population (children, adults who don't drink, seniors, and people who can't afford to go out and dine in this town) to enjoy possible artistic events.

I feel like I don't see much of it while I'm in Healdsburg I feel our arts scene is a little conservative, but perhaps that's fitting in a small town. I'd like to see art and performances 47 9.B.b

with a bit more 'edge,' myself. Especially when it comes to literary readings, which tend to be middlebrow and kind of dull.

I love the rainbow fence by Gibbs Park and seeing art around the square.

I love the recent outdoor art installations around town. I hope these continue! I really like the cultural murals on Plaza street, and I wish there were more.

I think arts and creativity are the ideas and things that display and define the culture we have around us.

I think in a small town like this, for there to be a strong artistic community would be important, because right now I don’t really feel that for youth, maybe for adults though
I think there should be more events with art in Healdsburg and invite everyone around Healdsburg I would define it to have fun and to pass the time.

I would like to see art classes and workshops offered for adults in Healdsburg, as part of the Parks & Rec department. PreCovid the library had a few adult art classes, which were great - but we need more! Overall, I'd prefer art classes to athletic classes via Parks and Rec.

I would love to see murals, public art spaces, color!! Music not just on the plaza with alcohol but more family venues, dance venue, outdoor movies, kinetic sculpture parade, teen space! I would say that the definition of arts and creativity in Healdsburg is the ability for the community to foster different aspects of culture, and through art this culture can be expressed creatively.

I've worked in art galleries, museums and have performed professionally at the Raven. The art galleries are well supported by town but feel the experience at Raven is diminished due to facility issues and more support for artists that work there.

We need to raise reputation of RPAT to attract more quality artists & this is very important to the town.

Idk
In my opinion, aside from Healdsburg Jazz, tourists don't come here for cultural events as much as for wine tasting and dining. There should be more emphasis on arts and creativity for residents.

In my own words, I believe that my definition of art and creativity is the way how art is expressed and how each mural or creative activity tells a story.

Inclusive space for all creative expressions
Incredibly important for everyone. Especially helpful for kids. Exposing them to a world with which they were not familiar.

Innovative, talented, natural free-form
Inspiration Enhanced experiences for residents and visitors, beyond wine tasting. (Create a broader reason for visiting and enjoyed community participation)
Interactive exhibits and events (indoor & outdoor), gallery/meet the artist events, live theatrical performances (!), live music, art/sculptures in the community.
inviting and homey
It comes from the heart and is very thought out.

It feels like arts and creativity are limited to children and select adults (usually older and wealthier).

It has faltered as the town has become more occupied by second homes and wealth. In the past, it felt like more a part of the fabric of the town... we need to constantly be attracting creativity to keep Healdsburg vibrant into the future.

It is limited to visual art in galleries and some public art It shares what people in Healdsburg are like
It's there, but I must dig to find it. As a new resident I don't know what's available. I notice a lot of small art programs popping up but not of the caliber I expect. Healdsburg has a great art and cultural heritage but the only artwork I see is what is for sale in private galleries. Is there a physical place I can learn and discover more of it? It's what creates memories
its nicest
Lacking
Less wine, more theatre
Libertad de expresión

Live music, spoken word, art shows, cuisine, acting, dance, and cultural celebrations that bring our diversity into the light of day and let us celebrate together.

Local and it is targeted for residents that will enjoy participating in the arts and culture activities.

Lovingly inspired Creative Inclusive Well planned, managed & attended Many of the arts in Healdsburg can be seen as expensive with a moderate variety. 48 9.B.b

Many options for many different interests. Do not boil everything down to what we think will appeal to everyone and will ultimately appeal to no-one.

Multiple places around town to be surprised by people's imaginations, like the sculpture that just cropped up next to the antique shop at the north end of town. Brilliant!
murals and bringing the community together through pretty things My definition is a city that is colorful and looks alive with color and have areas that draws one into. It could be more interesting nooks and crannies around town. I think it is very important to draw people away from the Plaza down towards railroads tracks area, and northern areas
My definition of art in Healdsburg is murals and paintings My definition of arts & creativity in Healdsburg is participatory in nature for all ages and cultures. And in different locations around Healdsburg. Collaboration with community partners like the library and schools would also be helpful.

My definition of arts and creativity in Healdsburg is community coming together and having fun whilst looking at artwork made my children.

My definition of arts and creativity in Healdsburg is creatively enhancing what we already have in the town by adding more activities more food(culinary) by which we can support businesses and increase revenue to support more activities.

Not many places for people to express themselves or do art.

Nurturing the imagination Crossing boundaries of expectation Surprise Freedom Sharing One of the ways to express ourselves
Open forum in several areas where people of all ages can engage in some form of artistic endeavor.

Open mindedness and encouragement of all types of art, dance, film, music, etc.

Oportunidad, comunidad, distracción, unión, aprendizaje, diversidad y multicultural.

Outside art - live and visual. Galleries!
participating in events that fill your heart
People exploring their passion in a public format.

Please read my previous comments, especially #12. Creativity breathes life into Healdsburg and makes for a kind of beauty that feeds our souls. Cultural experiences and wisdom expand our appreciation of differences and open our senses. We learn from each other. We have allowed major imbalances to occur in the world and on the planet; they are begging for greater reverence for nature, respect for diverse cultures and people; and the inclusion of a creative artists' untethered viewpoint. Without arts and culture, we are a more brittle community. Healdsburg streets, College and University, left us a legacy and a clue as to our founders' intentions. They believed in the sustaining power of establishing a regional school to grow the town in a healthy direction and keep it vibrant.

Pre-pandemic: lively, available, and diverse art scene.

Preparing to expand to become an Arts and Cultural Destination promising, but not matured
Providing the community an opportunity to experience the creative process either for themselves or being inspired from seeing another's creative process.

Public events, gallery events w/meeting artists, live performances, live music, public art, classes, written arts.

Quality entertainment, always room for improvement and growth repurposing the obvious, providing surprise and delight with an action, event, or object a community willing to risk exploration and execution of novel ideas using city resources and talent Right now, lackluster obviously. The Raven could be a shining star. We need it for locals, to draw more quality outside, bookable performances, to have a place that isn't a black hole for a CHILDREN'S THEATRE $$$ Sculpture and music are my preferences in art
Sculptures, murals, and purposefully interesting trees all qualify. Anything that's been made fun or interesting to look at sculptures, celebrations, unity
Something beautiful; something that makes you think, something you enjoy and would like to repeat.

Sounds like fluff for tourists.

Sporadic events. Need for more music venues with range of classical to modern Stale, old, hidden
Stale, white, old
Street art/ murals or bring art and color into town.

Supportive environment for both individual artists/makers as well as group events The arts and creativity in Healdsburg seems to be limited to the square. To my knowledge this is the only place that features artistic endeavors, yet there are other locations and avenues that could also benefit from events. I was surprised to learn that there are other shopping centers.

The arts define our culture and society. They are inspirational, encouraging, supporting. To live in a place where you can shun the miseries of the world for an hour or two, be catapulted into another realm of life would be a wonderful gift. Some of the shows at the Raven (especially musicals for me) have had that affect. We need more of these.

The arts in Healdsburg to me are film, live theater, live music concerts, and galleries. Creativity is offering those in a variety of venues.

The arts of Healdsburg are a very thing to have because you can just walk by the plaza and have amazing artwork hanging.

The community coming together to make Healdsburg a better place to be.

The definition of arts and creativity in Healdsburg means bright, wealthy, and capable of bringing smiles to everyone.

Where one can pour their hearts out with using heart. However, there needs to be a little more sunshine for Healdsburg by using art to brighten it up.

The feeling of comfort and joy.

The Glue. We are all pent up. The focus on a monoculture. Got to get back to the arts to express not impress. Our guests, the visitors of our town, need to see more of our local experience. I define Healdsburg art and creativity as the synthesis of what it means to live here. Our shared geography and the Tie That Binds Us Together! The minds and creativity of children, young adults, and adults put together for outsiders to see and for us to express through public events and displays.

The performing arts.

The sculptures, the fountain, the music nights, events such as the tree lighting, performances at the Raven Theater, dance and music lessons, and art classes in school.

There are many artists, galleries, and musical events, such as Jazz Festival. Raven is trying hard to produce quality theater.

There are some fun fair type things in the plaza in the summer but not too many There is some art around here but not enough.

There's a lot of art every turn
There's a lot but not a lot for youth and the minority groups in Healdsburg There's a lot during summer or certain holidays but theres not much throughout the whole year and not much for just kids Those creative events or experiences that stimulate understanding and appreciation of ourselves and our fellow citizens Though aesthetic objects and places are important to me I define arts and cultural as 'a way of being and viewing the world with depth, imagination, reverence and anticipation.' An arts and cultural focus can offer 'the glue that minimizes our divisions so we connect at the level of soul.'
To me, there is creativity in looking at the splendid nature around us and figuring out how to create a vibrant, thriving natural world. There is creativity in making things, not just painting and sculpture but inventing things (e.g., maker spaces for electronics as well as crafts, welding, etc.), perhaps experimenting with fashion couture, or making music in new ways; creating art, games and music using computer technology; presenting poetry slams or other performance art - basically, whatever would attract kids and young women and men to give them a place to belong and be creative.

Too exclusive and expensive
Too much focus on art and government should not be involved financially Total
um
uniform. need more, new.

Uplifting and supportive.

Very impressive, especially for a town of our size.

VERY white dominated
Vibrant downtown atmosphere. Worldwide reputation for rich and memorable arts experiences worth traveling for.

We are a small city with plenty of talent but without the facilities or venues to encourage more participation and attendance. The arts in Healdsburg focused on community participation but not on first-class performances. Result:

Healdsburg arts and creativity feel quaintly provincial (Jazz Festival excepted).

We are blessed to have lots of art and performance opportunities but now our movie theatre closed. It would be nice to see more diverse music. Also more events in plaza that incorporate arts, music and wine/beer and food. 50 9.B.b

We have a growing presence of public art in Healdsburg and need more. Music in the Plaza seems to be the only venue for music (although there is some offered at the Raven) We Ned to include the Arts in our regional persona, not just wine and food.

We need more
WE need to creatively solve the problem of housing for field and seasonal workers. WE need to value dignity of all people who come to Healdsburg - those with money in their pockets to spend and those who come to earn a money to live. Arts without respecting the value and dignity of all people is emptiness.

We're lucky to have as much as we do for a small town but there is lots of room for growth, especially for young people.

Making it special for locals is all that matters (tourism will follow). Tourism does nothing for the inclusivity we need to improve on.

Wide variety, could be more culturally diverse on stage and off. 51 9.B.b

• The most significant areas of difference when comparing creative economies of similar communities are cultural nonprofit revenues and art gallery/individual artist sales, with Healdsburg considerably lower in these categories. • Jackson, WY has a very strong CVI compared to all other benchmark communities. Jackson has focused on cultural tourism campaigns and dedicates much of it lodging tax to marketing, promotions, and infrastructure. It does not support artists directly, but rather organizations and attracting visitors to the areas, which has seemed to successfully support individual artist sales. • During the pandemic, Jackson’s tourism is stronger than anticipated and tax revenue has increased, mainly due to strong outdoor recreation options.
• Affordable housing is an overarching issue with artist retention. A privately developed artist live/work facility is under construction in Laguna Beach, following a multiyear approval process; however, a City-sponsored project was the subject of a 2017 Art Space feasibility study and, while needed, it was abandoned following opposition from some community groups. Many communities have not figured out how to tackle the challenge. Laguna Beach and Boulder CO have distinct infrastructure and initiatives for artist support. • Like the recommendation in the Healdsburg plan, Boulder, CO partners with Create Boulder, a foundation established to increase overall funding for the arts, whether through corporate or individual philanthropy, by establishing a central “clearing house” for donations that will positively augment the City’s existing efforts. Laguna Beach has created a new fund to solicit and receive public donations for the public art program; the fund is based on the presence of significant wealth and interest in the community. • The City and Create Boulder supports individual artist through its Creative Neighborhood Program. Laguna Beach created a new $100,000 fund this year for individual artist projects as COVID response, and to create public art opportunities for artists new to the field.
• Boulder has an impressive variety of cultural spaces, including non-traditional spaces across the city. Laguna Beach conducted a feasibility study but chose not to build a cultural arts center/theater facility; the study recommended exploring better use of and improvements to existing facilities.

Jackson Hole, Wyoming
Cultural Tourism
The Chamber of Commerce maintains a worksheet of activities open during COVID-19, however there is no specific Cultural Tourism Program or agenda sponsored by the city.

Wildly Creative Jackson Hole (see video) is a micro-campaign targeting the arts and is funded by local non-profits as well as monies from a City lodging tax. Wildly Creative is focused on helping the arts and artists showcase Jackson Hole as a cultural destination. The initiative is coordinated by the Jackson Hole Travel and Tourism Board as well as Art or Artisan “Superhosts” (e.g. National Museum of Wildlife Art, Grant Teton Music Festival). The lodging tax does not go directly to artists, but to cultural organizations themselves. The lodging tax funding is earmarked primarily for marketing and infrastructure maintenance (60% marketing, 40% infrastructure). The marketing portion of the budget is to be primarily utilized during low-tourism seasons.

Cultural tourism within Jackson Hole is complemented by recreational activity – more than 4 million annually frequent the area a year to enjoy the mountains, lakes and trails. Jackson Hole is working to more strongly promote Wind River, the American Indian reservation nearby in response to the Black Lives Matter movement. Jackson Hole Public Art is actively seeking outreach opportunities to local American Indian artists to promote their works and events as well as invite their participation in current initiatives.

COVID-19 impact
The Jackson Hole Public Art budget was cut by 25% due to the Pandemic. The City budget itself was cut by 40%. However, tourism has been stronger than anticipated and the tax revenue has swelled, according to interviewee and Executive Director of Jackson Hole Public Arts, Carrie Geraci. The week of 9/17/2020 the city had a 95% hotel occupancy rate. It is yet to be determined the final impact on the City budget. 66 9.B.b
Packet Pg. 177 Attachment: Arts and Culture Master Plan_Appendix (3695 : Arts and Culture Master Plan City of Healdsburg Arts and Culture Community Plan: Benchmarking Report COVID-19 relief
Jackson Hole Public Art commissioned artists to make posters for COVID-19. The organization has advocated for more work for artists, most recently encouraging the county to commission a mural and hire artists to paint jersey barriers to make outdoor seating more appealing. Each jersey barrier commission was approximately $2,000. So far, two artists have been engaged in the project. The mural commission has engaged one artist for a total cost of $5,000.

Residents of the Center for the Arts teamed with the Community Foundation of Jackson Hole to secure grant relief for non-profits renting spaces within the facility via an Emergency Respond fund created in response to the Pandemic.

City-Managed Cultural Spaces
Center for the Arts – The land for this facility is owned by the Town and County on a 100 year lease. The venue has over 200,000 individuals visit each year. This 78,000 square foot campus offers performance and rehearsal space, conference rooms, an outdoor amphitheater and gallery space.

Artist Retention
The cost of housing is considered comparable to San Francisco. Therefore, affordability is an issue for artists. Although there has not been a formal census, Jackson Hole Public Art Staff anecdotally report that each year the city loses artists due to a lack of affordable housing. There are no specific initiatives focused on supporting artists, however the City does offer a general emergency fund that has been promoted on the Jackson Hole Public Art site. The site also offers a list of state and private grant resources.

Jackson Hole’s current initiatives for creating a more culturally vibrant town include self-guided tours using digital imaging technology, a database of artists and fabricators working in the region, professional development programs for local artists, and workshops teaching how to problem-solve challenges most frequently encountered in commissioning public art. A special website with images and information on all publicly and privately owned art located on or adjacent to public space is currently pending Town of Jackson approval. 67 9.B.b

Cultural Tourism
Laguna Beach has a Business Improvement District (BID), which is a hotel district. The BID is considered a self-assessment by hoteliers, not a tax (not technically HOT). BID assessment is 2% of hotel charge, with 1% going to Visit Laguna Beach for their operations and marketing, and the second 1% percent going to the arts. The 1% for the arts is divided five ways, with a portion going to Arts Commission programming and another portion to Cultural Arts for the organizational grants. Note that the BID is assessed on top of 10%, which goes to City’s General Fund, so the visitor sees a 12% “tax” on their folio.

All programs funded through the BID are considered as promoting cultural tourism: Arts Commission programming and organizational grants dollars. Organizational grants are restricted to public programs provided by arts organizations during the off season. Additional cultural tourism funding is from the general fund, private funding, earned income, and sponsorships.

COVID-19 Impact
The City created a new grants program for individual artists, project grants to create artwork. Some are doing their first public art installation, which allows them to expand their portfolios. Looking for private dollars for a second round of grants for 2021.

Second, Cultural Arts is bringing in well-qualified outside artists who are exhibiting alongside local artists in a city park, city hall, and downtown. Exhibiting together reflects well on the local artists, helping promote their careers. This is also a public statement on the value of the art in the community during the pandemic. The City has been pondering the questions: How do I experience art during the pandemic? Have all the old ways gone out the window? Where does this journey lead? Also, the City also assisted Laguna Art Museum by contributing to their exhibition costs and joined other grant proposals.

City-Managed Cultural Spaces
Irvine Bowl and Forum and Festival Grounds (https://www.foapom.com) is operated by the Festival for the Arts under agreement with City.

The Bowl is a classic Southern California, outdoor amphitheater with 2,600 seats, built in the 1940s, and home since the 1960s to the annual 68 9.B.b

There is also a smaller outdoor venue, the Forum. The Festival Grounds are in front of the venue and serve as the outdoor exhibit area for arts exhibitions and booths during the summer Festival of the Arts.

Laguna Playhouse (land and facility): operated by the Laguna Playhouse, a nonprofit theater company, under an agreement with the City. The Playhouse produces an annual subscription season of theater.

Artist Retention
While overall the number of artists in the community is declining, The City of Laguna Beach has retained artists through the longstanding presence of annual artists marketplaces: the Sawdust Art Festival, Festival of Arts, Laguna Art-a-Fair, and independent galleries.

The enjoys a city’s century-old identity as an artists’ community, continuing through to the present, although currently hampered by real estate pressures and the overall cost of living.

The City has also developed an artist’s live/work policy, as a commitment to artists retention. A local artist has succeeded after a long process to gain approval to start construction on 28 artists live/work units this fall.

The Laguna Beach College of Art is creating their first master’s program, which will increase the number of artists. 69 9.B.b
Packet Pg. 180 Attachment: Arts and Culture Master Plan_Appendix (3695 : Arts and Culture Master Plan City of Healdsburg Arts and Culture Community Plan: Benchmarking Report Santa Fe, NM
Cultural Tourism
Historically, the Department of Arts and Culture operated under the Department of Tourism and working within the larger infrastructure of the local government. This was problematic, as the current Director thought it more difficult to fight for specific causes, i.e. advocate for additional funding or social justice initiatives under tourism. In 2020 the department became its own separate office. The tourism initiatives of the city focus more on marketing and promotion of the Santa Fe Arts Market (for-profit, retail arts) rather than supporting individual artists.

Notes on COVID-19 Impact:

The pandemic created an opportunity for the lodger’s tax, which is the primary funding source for the department, to create digital artistic content to help promote the city of Santa Fe. The budget for the Department of Arts and Culture was drastically impacted by COVID-19 – what was a $900,000 grants programming budget has since been reduced to $320,000. The department primarily shares links and resources, such as information on unemployment offered by the state. Through New Mexico and City CARES funding, the department has facilitated $50,000 worth of funding for 32 individual artists and created artists activations around the city by commissioning artwork that shares COVID-19 safety messages and artistic happenings in the area. Each artist has received a commission of $500-$1,000. The city has also utilized $75,000 of CARES funding for teaching artists how to create online, social media, and analytics sales programs.

City-Managed Cultural Spaces
The Community Gallery operating within the Convention Center -The City of Santa Fe Arts Commission’s Community Gallery offers exhibitions for the public, educational and professional development for local artists/artisans and exciting activities for the community. High quality art is for sale at all price levels. The Community Gallery promotes, sells and exhibits the work of New Mexico artists and artisans.

Santa Fe Parks and Recreation park spaces, i.e. Santa Fe Railyard Park + Plaza - This park is utilized for movies, festivals and arts spaces and was created in partnership with the Trust for Public Land, which helped the city acquire former railroad land, oversee design, fundraise and construct the one-acre plaza. The space includes a performance green, climbing wall, playground, bike and pedestrian trails.

Artist Retention
Santa Fe is historically an artist’s community, but recent increases in housing is creating tension and difficulty with retaining artists. 70 9.B.b
Packet Pg. 181 Attachment: Arts and Culture Master Plan_Appendix (3695 : Arts and Culture Master Plan City of Healdsburg Arts and Culture Community Plan: Benchmarking Report Boulder, CO
Cultural Tourism
The Department of Arts and Culture does not play a “lead role” in coordinating Cultural Tourism initiatives for the city. The Department awarded $975,000 to local nonprofits to help create a more culturally vibrant community, rather than reinforce a specific Cultural Tourism Initiative. The Chamber of Commerce plays more of a leading role through collecting a “seat tax,” or “admissions tax” which contributes a percentage of every ticketed event to a fund specifically used for promoting tourism activities. This admissions tax is approximately 5%.

COVID-19 impact
Given the City realizes the importance of the arts for its local economy, the Department of Arts and Culture’s budget increased from $750,000 to $975,000 this year in light of COVID-19. The additional funding was allocated primarily for grant relief efforts for artists. Many city departments have had at least a 4-7% budget cut.

COVID-19 relief:

The City has partnered with Create Boulder, a local foundation, to fundraise for “gap” funding that might be needed in light of the Pandemic via a matching gifts program. Create Boulder’s goal is to increase overall funding for the arts by making it easier to support the arts, whether through corporate or individual philanthropy, by establishing a central “clearing house” for donations that will positively augment the City’s existing efforts. Create Boulder and the City have created a Works Progress Administration-style micro grant (Creative Neighborhoods) that is invested into special projects focused on building community during COVID-19. Create Boulder has sponsored the completion of 66 projects, allocating over $40K of funding to Boulder entities.

The Creative Neighborhoods program matches residential property owners with a list of artists pre-vetted by the City. The City created an open call for Residential Property Owners to open their land for public art commissions. The City pays the artists directly to complete the works of art on private property but does not interface between the two parties to avoid legal issues.

Creative Neighborhoods is geared towards quickly delivering funding to artists who have lost jobs, contracts, events, or have otherwise been put in a vulnerable position due to the necessary restrictions to control the COVID-19 pandemic. At the same time, the projects leverage the talent of artists to unite and vitalize our neighborhoods with the goal of either a) helping their neighbors stay connected during the restrictions, or b) after restrictions are lifted, helping people to reconnect, recover and adjust to new social conditions. 71 9.B.b

The Department of Arts and Culture sets the rent for city-owned spaces, but due to the Pandemic, it has accelerated formerly three-year grant payments as well as permitted funds to be used for operating funds, salaries, etc.

Dairy Art Center – The Dairy’s 42,000 square foot facility houses disciplines ranging from visual arts, theater, and film to dance and music. The space offers art galleries, performance venues, teaching studios, offices, rehearsal spaces, dance studios, and a 60-seat art-house cinema.

Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art - Founded in 1972 by a group of local artists, Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art (BMoCA) offers 10,000 square feet of gallery space. It does not house a permanent collection.

In addition to spaces that are designated “cultural” areas the city manages the following for performing arts activity:
• Baseball Field – Utilized for dance and music performances, theatrical spaces • North Boulder Recreation Center – Utilized for theater and dance performances • Civic Area Park – Bandshell utilized for performances, i.e. music, theater, dance and opera • Extensive Open-Space Program – The city has been acquiring natural spaces for the past 50 years and utilized for performances, e.g. puppetry, aerial dance, theater
Unique considerations
Golf courses: the City is currently investigating using its many golf courses for theater performances Artist Retention
Boulder has not completed an Artist Census since 2018 but plans to do so in the next phase of its cultural plan (potentially in 2021). The City added more grant funding with local foundation and special commission projects to help retain artists (see above) during the Pandemic. 72 9.B.b
Packet Pg. 183 Attachment: Arts and Culture Master Plan_Appendix (3695 : Arts and Culture Master Plan City of Healdsburg Arts and Culture Community Plan: Benchmarking Report Sedona, Arizona
Cultural Tourism
Cultural Tourism is promoted by the Chamber of Commerce and Tourism Bureau, which oversees Cultural Affairs for city tourism. The Chamber is a non-profit organization that actively markets and promotes the city and cultural activities taking place (i.e Sedona Plein Air Festival).There is no specific Cultural Tourism initiative or plan formulated and managed by the City or a local non-profit.

The Chamber of Commerce acts as a contractor and has a budget of $2.4M funded by dues, sponsorships, fundraising (to cover shortfalls for projects) and the sale of advertising space on their website. $500,000 was set aside by the City Council during COVID-19 as a contingency fund for the Chamber of Commerce, as tourism plays a vital role in the local economy.

The Chamber of Commerce has created specific tools focused on supporting the local arts economy and tourism. • Small grants program focused on artists
• For every city and council meeting, an artist tells their story through the arts • Sedona Gallery Association meets every month and hosts festivals and walks to support the retail side of the arts • Chamber of Commerce created an online tool Walk Sedona for providing walkable itineraries of local arts organizations, galleries and public art that has been heavily used during the Pandemic The Chamber of Commerce has created specific website tools to help promote Arts and Culture, i.e.

Sedona Experience Finder
The Chamber of Commerce also manages relationships with the American Indian tribal associations of the Verde Valley to receive input on which activities and destinations should be marketed towards tourists, and which shouldn’t (due to issues with using ancestral religious lands with special significance to the local population). Part of this work is to promote arts and culture initiatives, festivals and performances held American Indian organizations and artists in response to the Black Lives Matter movement. 73 9.B.b

The Hub – Located within Posse Grounds Park, the venue is a 4,522 square feet event space for artists and utilized for exhibiting and selling local art. The city does not take a percentage of the sale. The Hub gives preferential use to renters using it for performing arts classes, workshops, rehearsals and arts-based programming.

Sedona Performing Arts Center – An arts space that offers year-round indoor classes, exhibitions, festivals, and cultural events; including the Sedona Plein Air Festival.

Posse Grounds Pavilion – This outdoor performance venue accompanies 300 – 600 people.

Artist Retention
While there has not been an artist census, the population of artists within Sedona has slightly declined due to issues with affordable housing.

The city has not added new programs specifically targeted on making Sedona more affordable.

Cultural Equity Policy
The City passed an ordinance on Human Rights focused on protecting the LGBTQIA+ Community 74 9.B.b

Following are a variety of examples of artists working within municipal structures across the country that range from residencies to artists embedded as full-time staff within city departments. • Art At Work/Portland, ME: Artist Marty Pottenger worked with the City of Portland, ME to develop Portland Works which “employs artmaking as a catalyst to build enduring, authentic relationships which are essential to meeting the increasing challenges facing cities. Created in response to civic and social tensions between city employees, elected officials and the immigrant and refugee communities, Portland Works partners municipal participants – city councilors, police, public service, social service, fire and EMS workers – with community leaders who represent both the city’s growing diversity and the residents who have lived here for generations. Exploring topics including civics, history, life stories and the “state of the city,” participants meet monthly to create and share individual artworks.”
• Boston AIR (Artist in Residence): “In the program, artists, community members, and City employees work on projects that help reframe social conversations. These artists explore the ways they can use art and media to improve and bolster City initiatives. They also search for ways to make artistic social practice a part of government and community work.”
• City Artist – St. Paul, MN: “Since 2005, the influential City Artist program has redefined the role of the artist working within city government. Integrated far upstream in the daily and long-term workings of the city, artists are creating a new artistic, social and civic practice through an innovative publicprivate partnership between Public Art Saint Paul and the City of Saint Paul. The central pursuit is to create art out of the life-sustaining systems of the city. Artists advise on major city initiatives and lead their own artistic and curatorial projects and have dedicated workspace within the Department of Public Works so they can freely collaborate across city agencies.” • Miami Beach Office of Resilience: “Can an artist help tackle one of the biggest problems facing mankind? Miami Beach certainly thinks so. One of the most vulnerable cities in the United States to the effects of climate change, the metropolis has launched an innovative artist residency that aims to recruit an artist to help address rising sea levels. For one year, the artist will be embedded with the city as it works to develop a plan to respond to the rising tides.” • Department of Cultural Affairs – Public Artists in Residence: “Public Artists in Residence (PAIR) is an experimental municipal residency program that embeds artists in city government to propose and implement creative solutions to pressing civic challenges.” • PAIR is based on the premise that artists are creative problem-solvers. Moving beyond politics and public relations, artists are able to create long-term and lasting impact by working collaboratively and in open-ended processes to build community bonds, open channels for two-way dialogue, and reimagine realities to create new possibilities for those who experience and participate in the work. • Creative City Making – Minneapolis, MN: “In 2013 the City of Minneapolis and Intermedia Arts collaborated on Creative CityMaking (CCM), a program aimed at integrating creative thinking, 90 9.B.b
Packet Pg. 201 Attachment: Arts and Culture Master Plan_Appendix (3695 : Arts and Culture Master Plan Implementation) strategies, and processes into the ongoing operations of City Departments. Functioning within the Department of Community Planning and Economic Development (CPED), five core projects enabled artists and planners to explore new ways to involve citizens who typically haven’t participated in planning processes. Over the course
of a year, the artist-planner teams created 22 different arts-based tools and strategies to stimulate learning and dialogue about possible community futures and assets.” • Director of Innovation and Marketing, Albuquerque, NM: In February, 2018, Tim Keller, the mayor of Albuquerque, NM, named an artist to his team, in a position as Director of Innovation and Marketing, bringing his skills as a poet and artist, seeking to integrate arts and culture into community innovation and building the creative sector.
• NASA/SETI AIR: The SETI Institute’s Artists in Residence Program: “The SETI Institute has become an international leader in the movement to integrate the arts and sciences. SETI AIR facilitates an exchange of ideas between artists and scientists so that these disciplines may inspire each other and lead to new modes of comprehension and expression. This program expands upon the SETI Institute’s mission to explore, understand, and explain the origin, nature, and prevalence of life in the universe.

Our artists bring fresh eyes to help navigate difficult concepts and act as a bridge to broaden awareness of the science carried out at the SETI Institute.” •

ARTICLE IX. PUBLIC ART PROGRAM
Sec. 15-231. Title.

This article will be known and may be cited as the Charlotte public art program.
(Ord. No. 2308, § 1(15-211), 5-27-2003)
Sec. 15-232. Purpose and intent.

The city accepts responsibility for expanding the opportunity for its citizens to experience art in public places. The city also recognizes that the inclusion of public art in appropriate capital improvements projects will promote the cultural heritage and artistic development of the city, enhance the city's character and identity, contribute to economic development and tourism, add warmth, dignity, beauty and accessibility to public spaces, and expand the experience and participation of citizens with visual arts. A policy is therefore established to direct that funding for the inclusion of works of art in certain capital improvement projects constructed by the city be allocated through this public art program that supercedes and replaces the joint public art program previously operated by the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Public Art Commission that had been established through resolutions duly adopted by the city and the county.
(Ord. No. 2308, § 1(15-212), 5-27-2003)

H. "Public art program" means the county program administered and 105

9.B.b
Packet Pg. 216 Attachment: Arts and Culture Master Plan_Appendix (3695 : Arts and Culture Master Plan Implementation) implemented by the cultural

construction of facilities, buildings, infrastructure and public spaces to enhance the physical environment,
mitigate the impacts of county construction projects, and enrich the lives of county residents through
increased opportunities to interact with art. (Ord. 14482 § 57, 2002).

4.40.015 Funding, appropriations, opportunities for pooling funds and use of funds.

A. All capital improvement projects that are publicly accessible and visible, or for which there is a
need for mitigation, shall contribute to the county’s public art program.

1. The amount of the annual appropriation for public art shall be equal to one percent of the
eligible project costs of those capital improvement projects that meet the criteria of public visibility and
accessibility or need for mitigation. For the purposes of calculation, eligible project categories shall include
capital improvement program projects for new construction, reconstruction or remodeling of buildings, parks
and trails, commemorative structures, pedestrian and vehicular bridges, surface water management
projects, wastewater treatment projects, transit facility construction projects and solid waste transfer stations.

2. The following project categories shall be considered ineligible and may be excluded from the
public art program calculation base: roads; airport runways; sewers; and solid waste landfills. This
ineligibility shall not preclude a client department, in cooperation with the cultural development authority,
from proposing a public art project for a road, airport runway, sewer or solid waste landfill project that
presents an opportunity for the inclusion of public art. (King County 6-2004)
FINANCING ART IN COUNTY CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS 4.40.015

3. At a minimum, the amount budgeted for public art in a capital improvement project shall be
equal to one percent of the following project elements: conceptual design, design, contracted design,
preliminary engineering, construction, contingency, county force design and project administration and
construction engineering. Costs associated with the predesign phase of the county’s capital planning
projects meeting the above criteria and anticipated to result in construction, shall be included in the
calculation for public art.

4. The following project elements may be excluded from the budget calculation for public art:
acquisition equipment and furnishings; and county force acquisition. Asbestos 106

9.B.b
Packet Pg. 217 Attachment: Arts and Culture Master Plan_Appendix (3695 : Arts and Culture Master Plan Implementation) abatement may also be
excluded from the budget calculation for art when the costs for asbestos abatement have been calculated
and a line item budgeted for asbestos abatement as been established within the project budget.

5. In all cases, where a capital improvement project has a scope of work that includes both eligible
and ineligible project elements and eligible and ineligible project categories, the budget for public art shall be
calculated, at a minimum, in the eligible portions of the project.

B. At the time a capital improvement project is proposed, the client department shall calculate and
include a budgeted line item for public art in each eligible project described in this section. The executive’s
budget representative shall confirm the calculations with the cultural development authority and include the
agreed-upon appropriations for public art in the executive’s proposed budget.

The amounts budgeted for
public art in particular projects may be adjusted to reflect council changes to the county capital improvement
program budget or supplemental budgets. The appropriation for public art shall be transferred to the arts
and cultural development fund and from there to the cultural development authority as soon as the
appropriation is made for the capital improvement project, and as soon as funds are available.

C. The source of the funds shall not affect the calculation for public art for a capital improvement
project unless the conditions under which the revenue is made available prevent its use for artistic purposes.

In this case, the revenue shall be excluded from the eligible project costs on which the one percent
calculation for art is based.

D. A policy is hereby established to direct the pooling of all public art program revenues on a
departmental basis. Interest generated by public art revenues shall not be pooled on a departmental basis.

However, interest from all revenues shall be pooled collectively and used for the purposes established in this
section.

Pooling affords the opportunity to look at the needs of the county as a whole and use the public art
revenues only in those projects that may have the greatest impact on communities or offer the best
opportunities for artist involvement. Pooling on a departmental basis affords the opportunity for the cultural
development authority and client departments to work collaboratively on projects that reflect the missions
and goals of individual departments and to ensure that public art projects are adequately funded. It is not the
107

9.B.b
Packet Pg. 218 Attachment: Arts and Culture Master Plan_Appendix (3695 : Arts and Culture Master Plan Implementation) executive’s or council’s intent that every capital improvement project which contributes to the public art fund
revenues shall include a public art project. The decision regarding capital improvement projects that will
include a public art project shall be determined jointly by the cultural development authority and the client
department according to the procedures and criteria in this section and K.C.C.

2.46.150.

1. The selection, acquisition and display of works of art, that may be an integral part of the project
or placed in, on or about the project or other public space;

2. Artist fees, design, planning and predesign service contracts and commissions;

county’s rich cultural and artistic heritage;

The city of San José and the redevelopment agency of the city of San José desire to expand the public's experience with works of art and to improve the design of public places by encouraging the involvement of artists on design teams for certain capital projects. The purpose of this chapter is to ensure that not less than two percent of the cost of certain municipal capital improvement projects funded in whole or in part by either the city of San José or the redevelopment agency or both is set aside for the acquisition of works of art to be displayed in or about public places within the city. The procedures and guidelines for implementation of this chapter shall be as set forth in the respective resolutions of the city council and agency board. (Ords. 21832, 24265, 24663.)

22.08.010 Funds for works of art in public places.

The city council and the redevelopment agency board shall provide in their respective annual capital improvement budgets for amounts of not less than two percent of the total amount budgeted for each “eligible construction project” to be set aside and identified as sources of funds to be appropriated and expended for acquisition of works of art in accordance with the provisions of this title. Appropriations for purposes of acquiring works of art in order to carry out the provisions of this title shall be made in accordance with law and the budgeting procedures of the city and the redevelopment agency.

B. Appropriations for works of art may be expended to acquire works of art for any public place if the terms of a contract, federal or state grant, law, or regulation do not limit or restrict the funds so appropriated to use for a specific “eligible construction project.” Appropriations for works of art shall only be expended for acquisition of works of art to be located on the premises of a specific “eligible construction project” if the terms of a contract, federal or state grant, law, or regulation do limit or restrict the use of funds to a specific “eligible construction project” only.

A. The city manager and the redevelopment agency executive director in conjunction with the submission of the annual capital budgets of the city and redevelopment agency, respectively, and subject to the provisions of any applicable law, each may:

1. Determine that certain proposed capital improvement projects not be deemed “eligible construction projects” for purposes of this title if the anticipated public visibility and/or public traffic usage of the capital improvement project is too minimal to warrant expenditures of funds for works of art; or

2. Designate funds to be added to the art in public places program, which funds may be utilized to place works of art in existing public places which do not otherwise qualify as “eligible construction projects.” B. In conjunction with submission of the city's and redevelopment agency's proposed annual capital improvement budget to the city council, and to the redevelopment agency board, respectively, the city manager and the redevelopment agency executive director shall notify the arts commission of:(i) those proposed capital improvement projects in said budgets which are not designated “eligible construction projects” for purposes of this title due to low anticipated public visibility and/or public traffic usage; (ii) those capital improvement projects which are designated “eligible construction projects” in said budgets; and (iii) any proposed discretionary funds added to the art in public places program.

C. The following provisions shall apply to the calculation of the not less than two percent to be expended for works of art pursuant to this title only in those circumstances in which the city or the redevelopment agency receives funds from persons, firms, organizations or other agencies which are restricted as to the use of said funds for expenditures for works of art, or which said funds are otherwise restricted by law or regulation:

1. If the terms of a contract, federal or state grant, law, or regulation prohibit or restrict the use of funds in connection with an “eligible construction project” for expenditures upon works of art, then the not less than two percent to be budgeted, appropriated and expended for purposes consistent with this 123

9.B.b
Packet Pg. 234 Attachment: Arts and Culture Master Plan_Appendix (3695 : Arts and Culture Master Plan Implementation) title shall be calculated so as to exclude from the total cost of said project any funds which are so prohibited or restricted.

2. If the terms of a contract, federal or state grant, law, or regulation provide that any additional expenditure by the city or the redevelopment agency on works of art for an otherwise “eligible construction project” shall affect the amount of funds received by the city or redevelopment agency for said project, then the cost of said project may be excluded in its entirety from the calculations of the not less than two percent to be budgeted, appropriated and expended for works of art pursuant to this title.
(Ords. 21832, 23247, 24265.)

22.08.030 Approval.

Contracts for acquisition of works of art or for other purposes authorized by this title, which are in an amount of one hundred thousand dollars or less, may be approved by the city manager or redevelopment executive director, as appropriate. Contracts for acquisition of works of art or for other purposes authorized by this title, which are in an amount exceeding one hundred thousand dollars, shall be submitted for approval to the city council or redevelopment agency board, as appropriate.
(Ords. 21832, 24265, 26386.)

22.08.040 Other public agencies.

If the city or redevelopment agency enters into an agreement with another public agency, whereby city or agency funds are transferred to such agency for the purpose of performing a capital improvement project which would otherwise be deemed an “eligible construction project” under this title, such agreement shall provide, whenever it is lawful or appropriate to do so, that the recipient agency or its successor in interest shall take appropriate measures to insure that not less than two percent of the city or agency funds so transferred are expended for acquisition of works of art.
