Item 1H - Page 1
City Council Staff Report
November 21, 2024 -- Page 2
Award On-Call Overhead Door and Motorized Gate Repair Services BACKGROUND:
The City of Palm Springs Maintenance & Facilities Division has a need for overhead door and motorized gate repair services. The contractors will provide services on roll-up doors, overhead garage doors, motorized rolling gates, and motorized doors for the bag belts on an as-needed basis for City of Palm Springs buildings and facilities.
Due to the success of the initial on-call contract awarded in 2022, staff has pursued and is recommending approval of two contract services agreements to address the current and expanding needs.
STAFF ANALYSIS:
The services contracts with GMAT, Inc. dba Inland Overhead Door Company and Precision Garage Doors & Gates Inc., are on-call, as-needed type contracts. The bids were used to determine the lowest, responsive, responsible bidders and to set the unit rates for the contracts; however, the actual amount of the contracts are based on the budgeted amount set by the Department and will therefore not match the bid amounts.
An Invitation for Bids (IFB 24-35) was initiated by the City’s Procurement and Contracting Department on September 23, 2024, based on the Department of Public Works specifications. Bids were solicited directly via the City’s procurement vendor portal, PlanetBids. In addition, the IFB was advertised in The Desert Sun. Four bids were received by the October 24, 2024, deadline as follows:
Vendor Bid
GMAT, Inc. dba Inland Overhead Door Company – Colton, CA $861,845.60 Precision Garage Doors & Gates Inc. – Yucca Valley, CA with office in Palm Desert
$1,098,600.00
DNA Overhead Doors Inc. – Cypress, CA $1,095,360.00
Ollin Dock & Door Inc. – Moreno Valley, CA $1,112,868.00 The Department’s intent for this solicitation was to award contracts to the two lowest responsive, responsible bidders. GMAT, Inc. dba Inland Overhead Door Company will be the primary contract and Precision Garage Doors & Gates Inc. will be the secondary contract over DNA Overhead Doors, once the local preference was applied under IFB Section 3.2 Local Preference. The department will reach out to the primary contract holder first and if they are unable to perform the work, the department will reach out to the secondary contract holder.
The unit pricing is fixed for the first year and subject to CPI increases in the following years. Staff recommends approval of a Contract Services Agreement No. 24B291 with GMAT, Inc. dba Inland Overhead Door Company for the initial three-year term in the Item 1H - Page 2

Award On-Call Overhead Door and Motorized Gate Repair Services amount not to exceed $669,264.96 as the primary contract, effective December 01, 2024 through November 30, 2027, subject to two one-year optional renewals at the sole discretion of the City, and Contract Services Agreement No. 24B292 with Precision Garage Doors & Gates Inc., for the initial three-year term in the amount not to exceed $446,176.64 as the secondary contract, effective December 1, 2024 through November 30, 2027, subject to two one-year optional renewals at the sole discretion of the City.
ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT:
The requested City Council action is not a “Project” as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Pursuant to Section 15378(a), a “Project” means the whole of an action, which has a potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment. The requested action is to approve contracts for the above-mentioned services, and is exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15378(b), in that a “Project” does not include: (5) Organizational or administrative activities of governments that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment.
ALIGNMENT WITH STRATEGIC PLANNING:
Approval of this action supports City Council priority 2A, Community Infrastructure.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Sufficient funds are available in Fiscal Year 2024-25 Facilities Maintenance accounts 5206570-40105 and 5206570-50119.

5.6 California Labor Code Requirements.
A. Contractor is aware of the requirements of California Labor Code Sections 1720 et seq. and 1770 et seq., which require the payment of prevailing wage rates and the performance of other requirements on certain “public works” and “maintenance” projects (“Prevailing Wage Laws”). If the Services are being performed as part of an applicable “public works” or “maintenance” project, as defined by the Prevailing Wage Laws, and if the total compensation is $15,000 or more for maintenance or $25,000 or more for construction, alteration, demolition, installation, or repair, Contractor agrees to fully comply with such Prevailing Wage Laws. Contractor shall defend, indemnify and hold the City, its officials, officers, employees and agents free and harmless from any claims, liabilities, costs, penalties or interest arising out of any failure or alleged failure to comply with the Prevailing Wage Laws. It shall be mandatory upon the Contractor and all subcontractors to comply with all California Labor Code provisions, which include but are not limited to prevailing wages (Labor Code Sections 1771, 1774 and 1775), employment of apprentices (Labor Code Section 1777.5), certified payroll records (Labor Code Sections 1771.4 and 1776), hours of labor (Labor Code Sections 1813 and 1815) and debarment of contractors and subcontractors (Labor Code Section 1777.1).
B. If the Services are being performed as part of an applicable “public works” or “maintenance” project and if the total compensation is $15,000 or more for maintenance or $25,000 or more for construction, alteration, demolition, installation, or repair, then pursuant to Labor Code Sections 1725.5 and 1771.1, the Contractor and all subcontractors performing such Services must be registered with the Department of Industrial Relations. Contractor shall maintain registration for the duration of the Project and require the same of any subcontractors, as applicable. This Agreement may also be subject to compliance monitoring and enforcement by the Department of Industrial Relations. It shall be Contractor’s sole responsibility to comply with all applicable registration and labor compliance requirements.

This indemnification clause excludes Claims arising from the sole negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnified Parties. Under no circumstances shall the insurance requirements and limits set forth in this Agreement be construed to limit Contractor’s indemnification obligation or other liability under this Agreement. Contractor’s indemnification Item 1H - Page 9
obligation shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement until all actions against the Indemnified Parties for such matters indemnified are fully and finally barred by the applicable statute of limitations or, if an action is timely filed, until such action is final.
7.2 Design Professional Services Indemnification and Reimbursement. If Contractor’s obligation to defend, indemnify, and/or hold harmless arises out of Contractor’s performance as a “design professional” (as that term is defined under Civil Code section 2782.8), then, and only to the extent required by Civil Code section 2782.8, which is fully incorporated herein, Contractor’s indemnification obligation shall be limited to the extent which the Claims arise out of, pertain to, or relate to the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of the Contractor in the performance of the Services or this Agreement, and, upon Contractor obtaining a final adjudication by a court of competent jurisdiction, Contractor’s liability for such claim, including the cost to defend, shall not exceed the Contractor’s proportionate percentage of fault.

Contractor shall maintain such books, records, data, and documents in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and shall clearly identify and make such items readily Item 1H - Page 10
accessible to such parties during the term of this Agreement and for a period of three (3) years from the date of final payment by City hereunder.

Contractor shall also be required to provide evidence to City of the purchase of the required tail insurance or continuation of the professional liability policy.
5. Sufficiency of Insurers. Insurance required in this Agreement shall be provided by authorized insurers in good standing with the State of California. Coverage shall be provided by insurers admitted in the State of California with an A.M. Best’s Key Rating of B++, Class VII, or better, unless otherwise acceptable to the City.
6. Verification of Coverage. Contractor shall furnish City with both certificates of insurance and endorsements, including additional insured endorsements, affecting all of the coverages required by this Agreement. The certificates and endorsements are to be signed by a person authorized by that insurer to bind coverage on its behalf. All proof of insurance is to be received and approved by the City before work commences. City reserves the right to require Contractor’s insurers to provide complete, certified copies of all required insurance policies at any time. Additional insured endorsements are not required for Errors and Omissions and Workers’ Compensation policies.
Verification of Insurance coverage may be provided by: (1) an approved General and/or Auto Liability Endorsement Form for the City of Palm Springs or (2) an acceptable Certificate of Liability Insurance Coverage with an approved Additional Insured Endorsement with the following endorsements stated on the certificate:
A. "The City of Palm Springs, its officials, employees, and agents are named as an additional insured…” ("as respects City of Palm Springs Contract No.___" or "for any and all work performed with the City" may be included in this statement).
B. "This insurance is primary and non-contributory over any insurance or selfinsurance the City may have..." ("as respects City of Palm Springs Contract No.___" or "for any and all work performed with the City" may be included in this statement).
C. "Should any of the above-described policies be canceled before the expiration date thereof, the issuing company will mail 30 days written notice to the Certificate Holder named." Language such as, “endeavor to” mail and "but failure to mail such notice shall impose no obligation or liability of any kind upon the company, its agents or representative" is not acceptable and must be crossed out.
D. Both the Workers’ Compensation and Employers' Liability policies shall contain the insurer's waiver of subrogation in favor of City, its elected officials, officers, employees, agents, and volunteers.
In addition to the endorsements listed above, the City of Palm Springs shall be named the certificate holder on the policies.
All certificates of insurance and endorsements are to be received and approved by the City before work commences. All certificates of insurance must be authorized by a person with Item 1H - Page 47
authority to bind coverage, whether that is the authorized agent/broker or insurance underwriter.
Failure to obtain the required documents prior to the commencement of work shall not waive the Contractor’s obligation to provide them.
7. Deductibles and Self-Insured Retentions. Any deductibles or self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by the City prior to commencing any work or services under this Agreement. At the option of the City, either (1) the insurer shall reduce or eliminate such deductibles or self-insured retentions with respect to the City, its elected officials, officers, employees, agents, and volunteers; or (2) Contractor shall procure a bond guaranteeing payment of losses and related investigations, claim administration, and defense expenses. Certificates of Insurance must include evidence of the amount of any deductible or self-insured retention under the policy. Contractor guarantees payment of all deductibles and self-insured retentions.
8. Severability of Interests (Separation of Insureds). This insurance applies separately to each insured against whom claim is made or suit is brought except with respect to the limits of the insurer’s liability.

The new Palm Springs AIDS Memorial is a well of love in the desert. It is a gathering place for love, in much the same way that Palm Springs was a gathering place for those with HIV/AIDS early in the pandemic. People came to Palm Springs because they knew that they would be cared for and supported, which is to say, they knew that they would be loved here.
Love can be expressed through a tear - in both sorrow and joy. A tear shed for the loss of a loved one. And a tear shed for the joyful memory of a loved one.
And so, The Well of Love, our memorial, shares three simple messages: Forever Remembered, Forever Loved, and Forever Celebrated. Each vertical face holds an oval pool of tears unique to its message. Forever Remembered has a single drop sending ripples outward, representing the memory of each unique individual taken from us. Forever Loved has multiple drops, all merging together and representing the community of caregivers, including loved ones, friends, family, medical staff, organizations, local businesses, and so many more. Forever Celebrated presents only the ripple effects from many, many drops coming together to create a rippled surface that represents the lasting effect of the lives we celebrate through this memorial. They have forever affected our lives, our memories, and our community.
The Well of Love is a well that provides an emotional life source. It is a well where tears are deposited, and tears are withdrawn - both in happiness and in grief. It is a touchstone in our community to never forget the lives of those lost to HIV/AIDS and to celebrate the ever-present, extensive, loving community of support that is unique to Palm Springs. - Phillip K. Smith, Ill

The Memorial creates a distinct
space for remembrance and
reflection, defined by the two entries,
two benches, and 20' diameter
ground plane. With the Memorial
object shifting to a more vertical
orientation that appears to lift
upward to the sky, the new design
provides space for seating and
movement in and around the
Memorial.
Approaching each of the three
"pools of tears", visitors will see
themselves reflected in the Memorial
along with the surrounding desert
landscaping and changing desert
sky. Yourself and the beauty of the
surroundings will be collaged across
the ripples of each Memorial face.
By seeing yourself in the Memorial,
your own stories, memories, and
emotions are added to the collective
pool of grief, loss, hope, and joy.
A visitor seeing themselves reflected in
the Memorial.
Item 1HH - Page 23
At each of the two entries there is a QR
Code bronze plaque located on the
adjacent bench. This QR code will take
visitors to the online experience, which will
provide deeper engagement with the
physical Memorial. By shifting text
explanations and additional support
materials on line, this portion of the
Memorial can be updated, edited, and
added to, thus allowing the physical
Memorial to be a timeless, unchanging
experience.
The Task Force intends for a more robust,
poetic experience online that can provide
potential elements such as explanations of
the Memorial concepts, audio stories of
people's experiences in Palm Springs at the
height of the epidemic, the ability to record
your own story, educational information
about HIV/AIDS, and so much more. This
portion of the project will be more fully
developed in parallel with the Memorial's
fabrication schedule and will be completed
at the same time as the physical Memorial.

Palm Springs AIDS Memorial – RESPONSE TO 3 ITEMS FROM PUBLIC ARTS COMMISSION Three questions were brought up during the October 1, 2024 Palm Springs Public Art Commission. The Commission’s questions, via Gary Armstrong/Jay Virata, and the Memorial’s Task Force responses are below:
Palm Springs AIDS Memorial – Online Experience
Arts Commission Question: Service agreement with the eventual digital provider. That will be handled separately with the city attorney but I would suggest you supply Jay and me with a rough timetable including when content will be loaded, how frequently it will be updated, who will be approving the updates and when it is turned over to the ultimate provider. We don’t need to know exactly who will be handling, just that *someone* will be handling and what they are responsible for.
Task Force Response:
• Pending Memorial approval from City Council and achieving fundraising goals, the design of the online experience will occur over 2025 and will be completed for the dedication of the Memorial. Input will be taken from the Task Force, community, and local organizations, knowing from the beginning that the goal is to maintain the online experience for as long as the physical Memorial is in existence here in Palm Springs.
• Konsist, a multi-purpose creative agency based here in Palm Springs, will translate this input into the online experience, establishing the focus, structure, aesthetics, and accessibility. Additionally, they will provide hosting services for the first 5 years.
As a note, Konsist assisted the Task Force with the online presentation of the new design that was made available everywhere publicly as of September 12, 2024, accessible via a QR code or link.
• All updates to the online experience will be reviewed 1-2 times per year for the first 5 years or as needed. The review body will be made up of volunteer community members as well as select individuals from various local LGBTQ+ organizations such as The Center, DAP Health, LGBTQ+ Archives, Desert Regional, etc. Potential information anticipated to be reviewed includes additional personal audio stories, addition of names of those lost to HIV/AIDS, links to local education, support, and health information, and any other pertinent general updates that may arise.
Item 1HH - Page 34
• Costs associated with Konsist's work and hosting over the first 5 years will be $5,750, or about $1,150 per year. After this time, public hosting platforms would cost about the same with anticipated inflation increases. However, if a local organization hosts the website on their own server platform, the yearly costs could be reduced. A full layout of estimated costs are below. • The initial five-year period is anticipated to be the greatest period of review and updates given the establishment of and associated engagement with the Memorial.
During this period, Konsist will work to create a technically efficient methodology for creating various category additions with the anticipation of handing off update work and hosting to a larger local organization with the financial and staffing ability to continue the periodic updates to the online experience. Hosting services, required for every website in existence, could also occur through more typical hosting platforms such as Godaddy, Webflow etc. By this time, the focus, intent, and aesthetics will have been fully established, paving the way for easy, efficient updates.
• As part of the Task Force's fundraising effort, they have set $50,000 as the goal for setting up an investment account that will support and maintain the online experience. Fundraising efforts for this will continue beyond the installation and dedication of the Memorial.

Sleep/Skate Deterrents on Benches
Arts Commission Question: Visual representation of what you will be doing to prevent people from loitering and sleeping on the benches. This will need to be reviewed by our city IMPACT unit.
Task Force Response: Task Force Head, Dan Spencer, and the Memorial’s artist, Phillip K.
Smith, III met in person twice at the Downtown Park with the Impact team (Kristi Smith and various officers) to discuss this topic.
• At the community Listening Sessions, the topic of providing seating at the Memorial site for reflective, meditative time was brought up many times. The artist has successfully incorporated two sets of curved pre-cast concrete benches that define the outer edges of the Memorial. From the beginning of the new design, there was a series of “seams” built into the benches to allow for the placement of a deterrent. • At Meeting 1 with Impact, the initial proposed deterrent that was about ¾” high was determined to be too minimal. After reviewing the existing concrete benches in the park and photos of deterrent examples provided by Impact, the Artist proposed a curved deterrent that was 2.5” high (most undulations in the DT Park benches were 1” to 2.25” in height). Additionally, it was proposed that these deterrents be placed at every seam in the bench, approximately 20” apart.
• After review, Impact suggested that the deterrents be 4” high. Seeking to maintain a safe, yet clearly welcoming space for those grieving lost ones visiting the Memorial, the artist proposed using the 4” high deterrent located on every other seam. This defined a 17.25” wide x 40” flat space between deterrents. Most existing benches in the park have a flat space of about 30”-36” wide x about 40”-48” long. If placed at every seam, a larger person would not be able to comfortably sit on the bench at the Memorial.
• The Task Force proposes 2.5” high deterrents on every seam (a total of 7 on each bench). The deterrents would be spaced about 20” apart leaving a 17.25” x 20” flat area for each seat on the bench. Current bench conditions at the park as well as the proposed design sent to Impact are shown on the next pages:

16 Section through pre-cast concrete bench with revised bronze skate/sleep deterrent Memorial Maintenance
Arts Commission Question: Maintenance plan, including finances, for regular cleanup and repair. What is entailed if the underground lights blow and the wiring needs to be redone? What’s the lead time and cost for replacing a broken glass panel? How often do you recommend the soot and dust need to be cleaned off of the glass (sadly both seem to be increasing in our area).
Task Force Response:
• We see monthly/annual maintenance being quite minimal and basic, which has been planned from the beginning of the project. There are four materials: Pre-cast concrete (bench and ground), stone (Memorial structure), glass (Memorial faces), and bronze (in-set lettering, QR code plaque, sleep/skate deterrents). The ground, benches, and stone faces will only require occasional blowing off of dust (similar cleaning as the existing park benches and on the same schedule). There is no paint to be repainted and no exposed metal that can rust. Additionally, we are looking into the right anti-graffiti sacrificial coating for these surfaces. The glass face will need to be cleaned as there will most likely be an accumulation of fingerprints from people touching the memorial. Cleaning with Windex and a rag estimated once or twice a month (depending on season) should suffice.
• As for costs, Impact informed us that the City’s Downtown cleaning team is responsible for the upkeep of the park. We would hope that the basic cleaning of the memorial would be scheduled as part of the overall park cleaning process. • A broken glass panel is not defined as maintenance. Rather, that is an insurance issue because there has been damage inflicted onto the Memorial. Every sculpture in the City’s public art collection is susceptible to partial or total loss due to damage and we would imagine total replacement costs would be assembled for insurance purposes. As of now, the total budget for the complete replacement of the Memorial, including ground plane, footings, benches and vertical Memorial is about $800,000. With this said, the vertical Memorial can be assembled/disassembled in thirds if just one stone element or one glass face needs to be replaced. • Regarding costs of replacing one of the three in-grade light fixtures, current selections of high-end manufacturer LED-based fixtures cost about $1200 each.
The LED module is rated to be at 90% of output after 100,000 hours. At an average of 10 hours per night, a fixture would last 10,000 days or 27 years. With this said, most LED manufacturers offer a 5-year warranty or, for an additional cost, a 10-year warranty. Regarding wiring, conduit connections between fixtures and outdoor Carson boxes as per code will facilitate easy re-wiring.

CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
DATE: NOVEMBER 21, 2024 CONSENT CALENDAR
SUBJECT: APPROVE AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO AGREEMENT 24B186 WITH MPG
CONSTRUCTION, LLC FOR ON-CALL BUILDING REPAIRS AND
RENOVATION SERVICES
FROM: Scott C. Stiles, City Manager
BY: David McAbee, Director of Public Works
SUMMARY:
This action will approve Amendment No. 1 to Agreement 24B186 with MPG Construction, LLC, in the amount of $200,000 for a revised contract amount not to exceed $950,000 for on-call building repair and renovation services.
RECOMMENDATION:
1. Approve Amendment No. 1 to Agreement 24B186 (Attachment A) with MPG Construction, LLC for on-call building repair and renovation services for an additional amount of $200,000 and a total revised contract amount not to exceed $950,000 through September 15, 2027; and
2. Authorize the City Manager or designee to execute all necessary documents.
BUSINESS PRINCIPAL DISCLOSURE:
According to the Public Integrity Disclosure forms (Attachment B) submitted on June 6, 2024, MPG Construction, LLC. is registered in the state of California.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Palm Springs requires contract services to provide on-call building repair and renovation services at various City of Palm Springs buildings and facilities. Due to the extent of services needed to make necessary repairs to existing infrastructure, the department’s intent for this most recent solicitation is to award contracts to the two lowest responsive, responsible bidders. Sam’s Construction was awarded the primary contract, approved by Council on July 9, 2024. Council also approved awarding the secondary contract to Ted Construction LLC; however, Ted Construction forfeited signing their Item 1I - Page 1
City Council Staff Report
November 21, 2024 -- Page 2
Amend On-Call Building Repair and Renovation Services Contract contract. MPG Construction, LLC. was the next lowest responsive, responsible bidder and was awarded the secondary contract (Attachment C) on September 12, 2024.
Over the last five months, staff has met with Sam’s Construction to discuss their inability to deploy multiple crews for various jobs needed to be undertaken simultaneously. Most recently staff met with Sam’s Construction on October 29, 2024, to discuss reducing their contract obligations and contract amount to better fit their abilities, to which Sam’s Construction was agreeable. Given staff’s desire to continue to retain Sam’s Construction for smaller on-call repair projects, an amendment is in process to reduce their initial contract amount from $950,000 to $300,000.
STAFF ANALYSIS:
This Amendment No. 1 to MPG Construction, LLC Agreement 24B186 will provide for an additional $200,000, and a revised contract amount not to exceed $950,000, moving them from the secondary contractor to the primary contractor for on-call building repair and renovation services.
ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT:
The requested City Council action is not a “Project” as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Pursuant to Section 15378(a), a “Project” means the whole of an action, which has a potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment. The requested action is to approve contracts for the above-mentioned services, and is exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15378(b), in that a “Project” does not include: (5) Organizational or administrative activities of governments that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment.
ALIGNMENT WITH STRATEGIC PLANNING:
This project aligns with City Council Priority 2A – Improve City Facilities.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Sufficient funds are budgeted and available in Fiscal Year 2024-25 in Facilities Maintenance accounts 5206570-40105, 50105, and 5206570-50119, and will be budgeted in subsequent fiscal years.

5.6 California Labor Code Requirements.
A.

3. Primary Insurance. For any claims related to this Agreement, Contractor’s insurance coverage shall be primary with respect to the City and its respective elected officials, officers, employees, agents, and volunteers.

4. Errors and Omissions Coverage. If Errors & Omissions Insurance is required, and if Contractor provides claims made professional liability insurance, Contractor shall also agree in writing either (1) to purchase tail insurance in the amount required by this Agreement to cover claims made within three years of the completion of Contractor’s services under this Agreement, or (2) to maintain professional liability insurance coverage with the same carrier in the amount required by this Agreement for at least three years after completion of Contractor’s services under this Agreement.

6. Verification of Coverage. Contractor shall furnish City with both certificates of insurance and endorsements, including additional insured endorsements, effecting all of the coverages required by this Agreement. The certificates and endorsements are to be signed by a person authorized by that insurer to bind coverage on its behalf. All proof of insurance is to be received and approved by the City before work commences. City reserves the right to require Contractor’s insurers to provide complete, certified copies of all required insurance policies at any time. Additional insured endorsements are not required for Errors and Omissions and Workers’ Compensation policies.
Verification of Insurance coverage may be provided by: (1) an approved General and/or Auto Liability Endorsement Form for the City of Palm Springs or (2) an acceptable Certificate of Liability Insurance Coverage with an approved Additional Insured Endorsement with the following endorsements stated on the certificate:

B. "This insurance is primary and non-contributory over any insurance or selfinsurance the City may have..." ("as respects City of Palm Springs Contract No.___" or "for any and all work performed with the City" may be included in this statement).
C. "Should any of the above described policies be canceled before the expiration date thereof, the issuing company will mail 30 days written notice to the Certificate Holder named." Language such as, “endeavor to” mail and "but failure to mail such notice shall impose no obligation or liability of any kind upon the company, its agents or representative" is not acceptable and must be crossed out.
D. Both the Workers’ Compensation and Employers' Liability policies shall contain the insurer's waiver of subrogation in favor of City, its elected officials, officers, employees, agents, and volunteers.
In addition to the endorsements listed above, the City of Palm Springs shall be named the certificate holder on the policies.

All certificates of insurance must be authorized by a person with authority to bind coverage, whether that is the authorized agent/broker or insurance underwriter. Failure to obtain the required documents prior to the commencement of work shall not waive the Contractor’s obligation to provide them.

7. Deductibles and Self-Insured Retentions. Any deductibles or self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by the City prior to commencing any work or services under this Agreement. At the option of the City, either (1) the insurer shall reduce or eliminate such deductibles or self-insured retentions with respect to the City, its elected officials, officers, employees, agents, and volunteers; or (2) Contractor shall procure a bond guaranteeing payment of losses and related investigations, claim administration, and defense expenses. Certificates of Insurance must include evidence of the amount of any deductible or self-insured retention under the policy. Contractor guarantees payment of all deductibles and self-insured retentions.
8. Severability of Interests (Separation of Insureds). This insurance applies separately to each insured against whom claim is made or suit is brought except with respect to the limits of the insurer’s liability.

2. Appropriate Public Art Funds in the amount of $70,000.

Item 1II - Page 1
City Council Staff Report

Pride Monument
On July 25, 2024, the City Council approved the request from the Palm Springs Pride Monument Board, a subcommittee of Palm Springs Pride Organization for installation of the Pride Monument in Frances Stevens Park.
On September 5, 2024, the Palm Springs Pride Monument Board requested funding in the amount of $70,000 in Public Arts funds to pay for the foundation, on-site assembly, and installation costs of the Pride Monument in Frances Stevens Park.
At the November 7, 2024, Public Arts Commission meeting, the Public Arts Commission approved a motion to recommend that the City Council approve $70,000 in Public Art Funds for the foundation, on-site assembly, and installation costs of the Artwork in Frances Stevens Park.
STAFF ANALYSIS:
This item was previously reviewed by the City Council at its July 25, 2024, meeting. A copy of the July 25, 2024, staff report on this item is proved as Attachment C.
This request is the result of increased costs associated with the proposed location of the Pride Monument in Frances Stevens Park. When the budget for this project was initially established the location of the Pride Monument was not known.
The Public Arts Commission also recommended specific conditions for approval of Public Art Funds. Specifically, the commitment of Public Art Funds in the amount of $70,000 will be rescinded if the following requirements are not met:
1) The Pride Monument Board is to submit a verifiable budget by March 31, 2025, which includes detailed cost estimates, quotes, contracts, or other evidence of costs for creating and installing the Artwork.
2) A soils test is completed to determine the type of concrete pad and foundation required to support the Artwork and demonstrating the viability and financial feasibility of installing the Artwork at the proposed site. 3) Assembly costs to be funded with Public Art Funds are to be limited to on-site assembly.
4) The installation is to be completed by October 31, 2025. 5) The maximum amount of assistance from the Public Art Fund is limited to $70,000.
A rendering of the proposed artwork is depicted below in Figure 1.

ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT:
Section 21084 of the California Public Resources Code requires Guidelines for Implementation of the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA"). The Guidelines are required to include a list of classes of projects which have been determined not to have a significant effect on the environment and which are exempt from the provisions of CEQA.
In response to that mandate, the Secretary for Resources identified classes of projects that do not have a significant effect on the environment and are declared to be categorically exempt from the requirement for the preparation of environmental documents. In accordance with Section 15304 "Minor Alterations to Land," Class 4 projects consist of "minor public or private alterations in the condition of land, water, and/or vegetation which do not involve removal of healthy, mature, scenic trees except for forestry and agricultural purposes" and approval of this item is considered categorically exempt from CEQA.
ALIGNMENT WITH STRATEGIC PLANNING:
Section 2.24.050 of the Palm Springs Municipal Code requires the Public Arts Commission to, “Be responsible for a Palm Springs public arts program including policies and guidelines, oversight of development of art projects and maintenance of art collection.”
FISCAL IMPACT:
Approval of this action will authorize the appropriation of $70,000 of Public Arts Funds from the Public Arts Fund Balance and allocate these funds to account 1502550 60030, Public Art – Acquisition.

Pride Monument
Staff reviewed the proposal with the Public Arts Commission, although no Public Art Funds have been requested for the sculpture. The purpose for the review was to consult the commission on the location and positioning of the sculpture; the commission unanimously recommended approval of the proposed request to the City Council. A copy of the action minutes from the meeting are included as Attachment B.
In addition, the application was reviewed by the Historic Site Preservation Board (HSPB), as the Frances Stevens School and Park is a Class 1 Historic Site and any modifications to the site require that a Certificate of Appropriateness pursuant to Palm Springs Municipal Code (PSMC) Chapter 8.05. The board determined that the proposed location of the monument will not materially impact the character-defining features of the historic site and approved the Certificate of Appropriateness. Installation of the monument will be subject to the conditions of approval imposed as part of the approval of the application.
A copy of the staff report that was presented to the HSPB and the action minutes from the meeting are included as Attachment C to this report.
A copy of the informational materials that were provided to both the Public Arts Commission and the HSPB is included as Attachment A to this staff report.
STAFF ANALYSIS:
The Pride Art Board of Directors has approached City staff regarding the installation of a LGBTQ+ monument on public property. The purpose of the monument is described as follows:
• The installation will be a visible and lasting tribute to the LGBTQ+ community’s contributions to the City of Palm Springs and the greater Coachella Valley. • The monument will serve as a beacon of hope and inspiration for future generations.
• It will be an educational tool to raise awareness of the LGBTQ+ community’s rich history and culture.
• The monument will create a sense of unity and pride for the LGBTQ+ community. • The installation will be a place where LGBTQ+ people can come together to celebrate their identity and culture, and to feel a sense of pride and belonging with family and friends.
Working with City staff, a site at the southeast corner of Frances Stevens Park was selected (see Figure 1 following). The proposed location is highly visible and accessible from the adjacent streets, while still leaving a large expanse of park area available for programming of events. The monument will be placed on a concrete pad, with an accessible pathway leading from the public sidewalk on Alejo Road to the monument pad.

Pride Monument
FIGURE 1: LOCATION OF PROPOSED SCULPTURE AT FRANCES STEVENS PARK The design of the monument has been created under the auspices of the Monument Board of the Palm Springs Pride organization. The Monument Board invited artists to submit proposals between September 2023 and December 2023. A jury was assembled by the Monument Board to review the proposals; in addition to board members, members of the jury included representatives of the Palm Springs Art Museum, the Parks and Recreation Commission, the Human Rights Commission, and current and former members of the Public Arts Commission. A total of 45 artists from around the world submitted proposals, with the jury selecting a winning design in January 2024.
The selected proposal is from Jim Isermann, a long-time resident of Palm Springs. The design features a concrete base in the shape of the lambda symbol, which is symbol of gay significance. The monument itself is to be constructed from five-sided blocks that will be stacked on internal stainless-steel rods, with the blocks in the eight original Pride colors and the addition of brown and black blocks. The block surfaces will be coated with a faderesistant urethane color and sealed with a graffiti-resistant clear coat. The monument will be 7-1/2 feet high; an image of the monument is shown in Figure 2.
The Monument Board is in the process of raising private funds for the monument. It is intended that the fundraising efforts will continue through the end of the year, with construction to begin in January 2025. Construction is intended to be completed by October 2025, so that the monument can be unveiled and dedicated for the 40th anniversary of Pride celebrations in Palm Springs.

The basis for the art monument: The Triangle
● Started with a triangle: one of the symbols most associated with the LGBTQ people ● Symbol began in 1933 with Nazis used downward pointing pink triangle as a literal label sewn to the prison uniforms of gay men and women. ● In 1972, activist group Homosexualle Aktion Westberlin was the first queer organization to reclaim the triangle as a symbol of liberation. ● In 1986 the ACT UP working group Gran Fury reutilized the pink triangle as a battle cry in the fight for HIV/AIDS treatment, creating the now iconic Silence = Death emblem
o Gran Fury mistakenly inverted the triangle – point it up. o New power in the triangle, making it a lasting symbol that communicates strength, resilience, and community.

Jim Isermann
● Jim Isermann, a longtime Palm Springs resident, has
over many years built an artistic practice that
encompasses painting, drawing, sculpture, sitespecific installation, and product design. ● Artwork has focused on post-war industrial design
and architecture.
● Pattern, color, geometry, and repetition are the
cornerstones and the generators of his work in all
mediums.
● Work has a strong mathematical base, often a single,
seemingly simple module that through its change in
orientation creates a complex repetition or pattern.

● How will the material color hold up in the desert sun? A 3 part industrial urethane system that has a clear topcoat with a 10 year color warranty along with a graffiti and UV resistant topcoat is used. The topcoat can be reapplied easily with spray or roller and in doing so the color layer will be further protected.
● How many years before it fades?
With a re-application of the clear UV resistant topcoat every 8-10 years, the color will not fade. It is a water based urethane paint and topcoat and does not require extensive preparation or tenting when recoated in the future.
● Examples of this type of metalwork exposed to the elements for long periods of time? METALAB Public Art is the metalwork vendor on this project and has completed dozens of projects across the country including Scottsdale, El Paso, and Denver. They have moved toward this paint system due to its durability, color fastness, warranty, and most importantly its ease in touch up and reapplication of the top coat.

HISTORIC SITE PRESERVATION BOARD
STAFF REPORT
DATE: July 2, 2024 NEW BUSINESS
SUBJECT: APPLICATON BY PALM SPRINGS PRIDE FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS – MINOR TO INSTALL THE “PRIDE MONUMENT” AT THE FRANCES STEVENS PARK, A CLASS 1 SITE LOCATED AT 538 NORTH PALM CANYON DRIVE (APN #505-325-003), HSPB #7 / CASE CAMI 2024-0005 (SY).
FROM: Department of Planning Services
SUMMARY
This request is to install a permanent sculpture at the southeast corner of Frances Stevens Park. This property, also known as the Frances Stevens School and Park, is a City-owned Class 1 (Landmark) site that contains two historic buildings and a designated landscape design. The proposed sculpture is 7’-10” tall and will be placed on a circular concrete base with a pathway accessed from the existing sidewalk.
RECOMMENDATION:
Grant the Certificate of Appropriateness – Minor to install the proposed sculpture with the following conditions:
- During installation, all existing landscape features, including but not limited to the trees and rolling berms, must be properly protected.
- The sculpture and all associated features including the concrete pad, pathway and light fixtures are to be regularly serviced and maintained.
BACKGROUND AND SETTING:
The Frances Steven School and Park occupies an entire city block between Alejo Road and Granvia Valmonte. The school was first built on this site in 1927 while the surrounding landscape evolved with the needs of the community. In 1972, landscape architect David Hamilton was hired to design the park with the intent to create an open and pleasant feeling in this part of downtown.1 The layout of the two historic buildings created courtyard-like spaces in between the structures, while the large open lawn to the south was visually unobstructed with integrated pathways providing access to the space from the street. Class 1 designation of the property identified the structures as well as the park. 1 Frances Stevens School & Park Report by Steven Keylon, 2018.

Historic Site Preservation Board Staff Report July 2, 2024 HSPB 7 / Case CAMI 2024-0005 – Certificate of Appropriateness
ANALYSIS:
Pursuant to Municipal Code Section 8.05.110 (Alterations of Class 1 and Class 2 Historic Resources – Certificate of Appropriateness), HSPB shall evaluate the proposal for compatibility and mitigate any adverse impacts to character-defining features of the historic resource by reviewing it for compliance with the four criteria:
Certificates of Appropriateness (“C of A’s”) are processed pursuant to Municipal Code Section 8.05.110 as follows:
Criteria and Findings for alterations to Class 1 sites:
The HSPB shall approve the C of A’s if the following findings can be met
1. That the proposed alteration does not significantly impact or materially impair the character-defining features of the historic resource as listed in the resolution for historic designation, or, where a character-defining feature may be impacted, the proposed alteration minimizes that impact as much as possible.
The proposed sculpture will be installed on a concrete pad near the edge of the site and will not impact the existing trees and vegetation. The sculpture is approximately 7’-10” in height and spans 14’ along the pedestrian sidewalk. It is roughly 140’ from the historic structures and proposed in a location of the park that was intended to be inviting and open. The “Rainmaker” is another art piece that was installed in 1999 in the southwest corner of the property. The proposed location co-locates the art pieces on the southerly side of the park and does not materially impair the character-defining features of the historic buildings or the landscape design. The project conforms to this finding.
2. That the proposed alteration will assist in restoring the historic resource to its original appearance where applicable, or will substantially aid its preservation or enhancement as a historic resource;
The proposed installation does not directly assist in restoring the historic buildings or landscape features, but it is consistent with the design intent of the site. With the installation of public art in the proposed location, the open lawn is further enhanced as a communal space for engagement with a pleasant feeling which was one of the intended goals for employing David Hamilton as the landscape architect. The existing landscape features like the trees are intended to remain in place. The project conforms to this finding.
3. That any additions to the historic resource are consistent with the massing, proportions, materials, and finishes of the existing historic resource, and: (i) can be distinguished from the existing historic resource as may be appropriate; or (ii) are indistinguishable from the historic resource as may be appropriate, and where such alterations are clearly documented in the City’s archival file for the historic resource as being non-original to the historic resource;
Item 1H - Page 27 Item 1II - Page 35
Historic Site Preservation Board Staff Report July 2, 2024 HSPB 7 / Case CAMI 2024-0005 – Certificate of Appropriateness
While the sculpture may not fit the exact definition of an addition, the compatibility of the art piece with the surrounding context is important to consider because the historic resource and its character-defining features must remain the focal point of the site. The proposed sculpture is pedestrian in scale and will not overshadow the historic structures and will likely be subordinate to the mature trees, which will remain. The material finishes and colors for the piece are clearly distinguishable from the historic resource eliminating any confusion between what is considered historic and non-historic material. The proposed project conforms to this finding.
4. That, in cases where Federal funds are to be utilized in financing the proposed alterations, the alterations are consistent with the Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties, as put forth by the U.S.
Secretary of the Interior.
No federal funds are involved in the proposed project.
ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT:
The proposed alteration is considered a project pursuant to the guidelines of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”). Staff has evaluated the proposal relative to the CEQA Guidelines and determined the project to Categorically Exempt from further evaluation under CEQA as a Class 31 because the project proposes rehabilitation of the historic site that is consistent with the Secretary of the Interior Standards. The proposed scope of work does not radically change, obscure or destroy character-defining features of the buildings or the surrounding landscape.
CONCLUSION:
As proposed, the installation of the sculpture in this location maintains the existing landscape design and does not materially impair or diminish the site’s historic significance. The location is adequately distanced from the historic structures and does not alter any significant features of the existing landscape. The necessary criteria for the issuance of a Certificate of Appropriateness are met, and staff recommends approval with the condition as listed above in the recommendations.

Such termination will be effective in the manner specified in such notice, will be without prejudice to any claims which City may have against Supplier, and will not affect the obligations and duties of Supplier under the Agreement with respect to portions of the Goods not terminated.
C. On receipt of notice under this Section, Supplier will, with respect to the portion of the Goods terminated, unless the notice states otherwise,
1. Immediately discontinue such portion of the Goods and the placing of orders for materials, facilities, and supplies in connection with the Goods,
2. Unless otherwise directed by City, make every reasonable effort to procure cancellation of all existing orders or contracts upon terms satisfactory to City; and

Upon termination pursuant to this Section, Supplier will be paid a pro rata portion of the compensation in the Agreement for any portion of the terminated Goods already delivered, including material and services for which it has made firm contracts which are not canceled, it being understood that City will be entitled to such material and services. Upon determination of the amount of said pro rata compensation, City will promptly pay such amount to Supplier upon delivery by Supplier of the releases of liens and affidavit, pursuant to this Section.
16. FORCE MAJEURE
Supplier shall not be held responsible for failure or delay in shipping nor City for failure or delay in accepting Goods described herein if such failure or delay is due to a Force Majeure Event. A Item 1J - Page 10

17. CITY OFFICERS AND EMPLOYEES: NON-DISCRIMINATION
A. Non-Liability of City Officers and Employees.

4. Approve the installation of Rover by Jeff Zischke at Victoria Park; Shapes and Sizes by Ben Sinor at Desert Highlands Park; Spegody by Jack Howard-Potter at Baristo Park; and Dancer 6 by Lyle London at Gateway Park.
5. Authorize the City Manager to execute all necessary agreements to implement the Artscape in the Parks Project.
BACKGROUND:
On February 1, 2024 at a Public Arts Commission meeting, the Public Arts Commission voted unanimously to recommend using $100,000 of Public Arts Funds for the proposed Artworks.
On February 29, 2024, the City Council approved using $100,000 of Public Arts Funds for the Artscape in the Parks Projects at Victoria Park and Desert Highland Park.
A call for artists for the Artscape in the Parks Project was released July 11, 2024. Thirtynine proposals were submitted in response to the call for artists by the deadline of August 29, 2024.
On September 17, 2024, at a Special Meeting of the Public Arts Commission, the commission selected two top proposals for each of the four parks.
On October 1, 2024, at a Public Arts Commission meeting, the Public Arts Commission voted unanimously to recommend using $100,000 of Public Arts Funds for two additional Artscape in the Parks artworks for installation at Gateway Park and Baristo Park.
The Artworks were presented to the respective neighborhood groups and Parks and Recreation Commission.
At the November 7, 2024 Public Arts Commission meeting, the Commission approved substituting Shapes and Sizes by Ben Sinor in place of another artwork from an artist located in Poland who could not commit to the production schedule required for this project due to the distance the art piece would have to travel and its size.
At this time, the Public Arts Commission is requesting appropriation of an additional $100,000 in Public Arts Funds to fund Artscape in the Parks projects at Gateway Park ($50,000) and Baristo Park ($50,000); and to approve installation of Rover by Jeff Zischke at Victoria Park; Shapes and Sizes by Ben Sinor at Desert Highlands Park; Spegody by Jack Howard-Potter at Baristo Park; and Dancer 6 by Lyle London at Gateway Park.
STAFF ANALYSIS:
The Call for Artists was released on July 11, 2024, and was posted on the City’s webpage, Publicartist.org and codaworx.com call for artists sites. It was also sent to over 100 artists Item 1JJ - Page 2

Artscape in the Parks
in the City’s database. Thirty-nine proposals were submitted in response to the call for artists by the deadline of August 29, 2024.
The scope of work and requirements for the Artworks included the following:
• Create new, permanent sculptures.
• The sculptures can be any shape, form, or design.
• They can be one large piece or multiple smaller pieces. • The proposed site-specific artwork should feature imagery and a color palette that is welcoming, with the focus on themes that promote community, healthy living, family, and mutual collaboration.
• Works that explore an expanded notion of public sculpture and engage the community members are encouraged.
• All entries must be original work and artists are encouraged to be creative in their selection of materials while considering safety requirements common to publicly accessible works of art.
• All work must be safe, tamper-resistant, and easily maintained, regardless of the ease of public reach.
• Artwork must withstand a public and desert environment, mainly extreme heat but including windy conditions, for the duration of the installation. • In addition to being relevant to the demographics of each community, the artwork must satisfy reasonable standards of permanence and safety, meet all relevant codes required for public places, and offer reasonable proof of soundness against theft, vandalism, or excessive maintenance and repair.
• As the sites where the works will be displayed are in high pedestrian traffic areas, the safety of the public, including children, must be taken into consideration. • Work must be as vandal-proof as possible and cannot have sharp edges or be easily breakable or bendable.
• Work must be of sufficient size to minimize the possibility of theft. • All work entered must be freestanding and suitable for long-term outdoor public display.
• All accepted entries must be capable of being properly secured to a concrete pad, or securely anchored in the ground.
• Artists will be required to apply for appropriate permits (such as building permits and electrical permits) and be approved by respective City departments. • The Arts Commission will consider the submission of appropriateness to each community; the applicant’s professional qualifications; proven ability to undertake projects of a similar scope; and artistic merit as evidenced by the submitted materials and professional history.
• One artist can submit distinct quotes for each commission opportunity but will only be awarded for one park.
• The winners will not be eligible for future Artscape opportunities. • The Artscape program is open to all artists 18 years of age or older.

The recommended artists and proposed artworks being recommended by the Public Arts Commission are listed below. The Artists’ biographies are provided in Attachment B.
Rover by Jeff Zischke at Victoria Park
Rover is designed as an iconic landmark and gathering place for Victoria Park in Palm Springs. The sculpture is designed as a large geometric based dog that is built on the grand scale, is colorful and interactive working as a magnet for people to meet and enjoy the park environment.

Shapes and Sizes by Ben Sinor at Desert Highlands Park
Shapes and Sizes is a representation of the beauty of people from all walks of life while also paying homage to the natural world around us and its everlasting beauty. Through the utilization of various types of cacti in blossom, community and the diversity within it are represented. With the pieces in blossom, it demonstrates that the community is comfortable with itself and in collaboration via the willingness to demonstrate their true selves. Shapes and Sizes will be constructed of painted carbon steel. Shapes and Sizes is approximately 12 feet tall and has an estimated weight of 3,000 pounds collectively.

Spegody by Jack Howard-Potter at Baristo Park
The sculpture is a large colorful body part collage. Placing body parts in odd places and using a mix of limbs and components created interesting, intriguing forms. The sculptures read like figures; the body parts were easily identifiable but not ordered in the “right” way.
Viewers are at once comfortable with the sculptures and also inquisitive and confused.
The addition of the bright colors further draws viewers in and celebrates the different shapes as figurative but put together in a new and exciting way. The sculpture’s figurative elements and the colors will reference the viewers’ own experiences; they may recall their favorite sports team’s colors, the colors of their flag, school or landscape, and recognize the human forms. This makes the sculpture widely appealing because there are many ways viewers can identify with it. Spegody is 10 feet high, 24 feet long, and 18 feet deep.

promoting the Call for Artists to the artist community it would be prudent to appropriate and allocate sufficient funding for the proposed Artworks. At this time, the Public Arts Commission is seeking approval for the use of $100,000 of Public Art Funds to proceed with implementing the proposed Artwork.
As described in the attached Project Statement by the Public Art Commission (Attachment A), the proposed Artwork:
• May be any shape form or design.
• May be one large piece, or multiple smaller pieces which enhance each other. • The Artwork should feature imagery and a color palette that is welcoming, with the focus on themes that promote community, healthy living, family, and mutual collaboration.
• It should explore an expanded notion of public sculpture and engage the community members.
• The maximum amount for the entire project will be $50,000.
As with past public art projects in parks, the Public Art Commission will coordinate and work closely with the Parks and Recreation Commission. The Public Arts Commission will facilitate communication, oversee the artist selection process, and the production and installation of the Artworks.
It is anticipated that the call for artists will be released in June 2024 and the installation of the artwork will occur April 2025 in conjunction with World Art Day 2025. After the Call for Artists is complete, staff will return to City Council for approval of the artists and proposed Artworks.

The Palm Springs Public Arts Commission:
Artscape in the Parks
The City of Palm Springs Public Arts Commission is seeking artwork for their inaugural Artscape In The Parks program.
The artwork will be part of a public art expansion and park improvement project lead by the Palm Springs Public Arts Commission in conjunction with the Palm Springs Parks & Recreation Commission. The goal of this project is to honor the rich cultural history of the each community and to bring art into each neighborhood hub—their local park.
The first two commissions will be for two installations: one in Victoria Park and one at the James O. Jessie Desert Highland Unity Center.
Future installations in other parks will be announced separately.
Each commission is for 50k.
The sculpture can be any shape, form or design.
The installation can be one large piece, or multiple smaller pieces which enhance each other. The total commission amount per park does not change.
The proposed site-specific artwork should feature imagery and a color palette that is welcoming, with the focus on themes that promote community, healthy living, family, and mutual collaboration.
Works that explore an expanded notion of public sculpture and engage the community members are encouraged.
The Artscape program is open to all artists 18 years of age or older. All entries must be original work and artists are encouraged to be creative in their selection of materials while considering safety requirements common to publicly accessible works of art.
All work must be safe, tamper-resistant, and easily maintained, regardless of ease of public reach.
Artwork must withstand a public and desert environment, mainly extreme heat but including windy conditions, for the duration of the installation.
In addition to being relevant to the demographics of each community, the artwork must satisfy reasonable standards of permanence and safety, meet all relevant codes required for public places, and offer reasonable proof of soundness against theft, vandalism or excessive maintenance and repair.

As the two sites where the works will be displayed are in high pedestrian traffic areas, the safety of the public, including children, must be taken into consideration. Work must be as vandal-proof as possible and cannot have sharp edges or be easily breakable or bendable. Work must be of sufficient size to minimize possibility for theft.
All work entered must be freestanding and suitable for long-term outdoor public display.
All accepted entries must be capable of being properly secured to a concrete pad, or securely anchored in the ground.
In making their decision, the Arts Commission will consider the submission of appropriateness to each community; the applicant’s professional qualifications; proven ability to undertake projects of a similar scope; and artistic merit as evidenced by the submitted materials and professional history.
One artist can submit distinct proposals for each commission opportunity, but will only be awarded for park. The winners will not be eligible for future Artscape opportunities.

Statement
I am an accomplished, internationally exhibited artist and designer with both a passion for and significant experience in successfu lly planning and executing large-scale, site-specific public art and interactive environments.
Having created temporary and permanent public sculpture, designed lighting for public spaces, and integrated the two for both civic and commercial clients, I've employed a wide range of materials, with varied technical aspects and engineering that are required to install large scale art in the public realm. My approach to projects of this scope always places the highest priority on responding to not only the site's features and nuances, diverse stakeholders' needs, and community engagement but also to the larger iconographic requirements of the work itself, all to ensure high levels of visitor delight and interactivity My subject matter may be varied and the forms quite diverse but each sculpture installation that I create is a well thought out art installation that is innovative, creates a visual link to the site engaging people that experience it.
One of the compl iments that I have received is that I have a full grasp of scale. Creating the grandeur in a public art project requires technical expertise, experience and knowledge of materials but also understanding that the elements need to relate not only to the installed environment and architecture but also to the people that will take part in experiencing the sculpture.
Critical functions of public art are the fabrication, installation, maintaining timeline and staying on budget but also creating a discovery space. I can proudly state that I have a reputation for being organized, team collaborator, prepared, on-time within budget and following through with sustainability and conservation. All told, I am experienced artist particularly adept at planning and executing large-scale projects that achieve, and exceed, their goals, creating a unique sense of place. I would enjoy the opportunity to work with your team on this exciting project together.
