City of Redondo Beach Public Art Master Plan
7. 7. 1 Assessing Repair and Maintenance Needs of Existing Works developed through the Public Art program: Artwork shall be inventoried and receive cursory inspections once a year during the City' s physical inventory process. Artwork shall receive regular, thorough, condition examinations, which include the present locations and conditions of artwork, as well as cost estimates for treatment and maintenance. These thorough examinations shall occur every one to five years, depending upon the needs of individual works. They shall also occur when required by reports of damage.

7. 8. 1 Preventative Maintenance:
Sustainable Artwork: Artists shall be commissioned to develop sustainable artwork; that is artwork which can be realistically maintained by the City, using City resources and within the guidelines described in these policies and procedures. Artists shall work with The City and its partners to implement preventative maintenance strategies (such as applying graffiti coatings, selecting durable materials and providing wood chip borders near mowed areas) as part of the construction and installation of artwork, as long as those strategies do not interfere with the approved artist' s proposal or integrity of the artwork.
Design Approval and Final Receipt and Completion: Before design approval and prior to final receipt and completion, an art conservator, or other qualified City staff, such as engineers, concrete experts, landscape architects, maintenance crews and public safety, shall review the proposed design for possible flaws in structural design and fabrication.
Inherent Flaws: Artists shall also be responsible for the cost and execution of repairs related to any defects in workmanship or inherent flaws in artwork, which they are commissioned to fabricate.
Inherent flaws may include any quality within the material or materials incorporated into the artwork which, either alone or in combination, result in the deterioration of the artwork. Artist' s plans for public artwork shall be reviewed and approved by certified structural engineers. When an artist is commissioned to fabricate an artwork, this review shall be at the artist' s expense. ( City staff shall encourage artists to contract with vendors, obtain warrantees and hold manufacturers accountable for inherent flaws in their work.)
City of Redondo Beach Public Art Master Plan
7. 8. 2 Maintenance Plans for New Art Works: All new artwork must have a treatment and maintenance plan that projects both staff time and funding needs. As part of their contractual requirements, commissioned artists shall consult with the City and all other appropriate partners on a maintenance plan for each new artwork. These maintenance plans shall include documentation of materials used to fabricate the artwork and a reasonable annual budget for maintenance. Artwork that includes landscaping as an integral part shall include a maintenance plan for the landscaping elements as well.
Maintenance plans for new works shall be reviewed and approved by the City to ensure there are no major concerns with materials, safety or maintenance.
7. 8. 3 Landscaping as Part of the Artwork and Artist' s Original Design:
Artwork with landscaping elements shall be commissioned only for sites with an irrigation source and an ongoing source of funding for the operation and maintenance of the irrigation system. Exceptions shall only be made if plantings are sustainable within the local climate without irrigation and a budget provides watering for two years or until the plantings are established.
Artists shall create a landscaping plan for such artwork. Property owners and experienced City staff or landscape architects shall approve this plan. Such landscaping shall also be included in the artwork' s maintenance plan and contractual agreements with property owners.
The City' s responsibility for funding maintenance of such landscaping shall be proportional to the Public Art program' s original role in funding the creation of landscaping portion of the artwork.
Volunteers and garden clubs may be a good resource in maintaining such landscaping, however, it is unreasonable to expect them to assume full responsibility for maintenance for the life span of most artwork.
7. 8. 4 Landscaping Altered by Installation of Artwork: Any established landscaping, including grass, trees, and plantings directly disturbed or altered by the installation of artwork that are not part of a permanent landscaping design to accommodate the artwork shall be restored to its pre -installation state in a manner consistent with the design for the site and at the expense of the artist' s project budget and/ or the Public Art program.
7. 8. 5 Supplemental Landscaping: Maintenance of decorative landscaping that is supplemental to the artwork and not part of the artist' s original design shall not be staffed or funded by the Public Art program. This may include landscaping in the area where the artwork has been installed or landscaping that has been added later. The artist and the property owner shall approve such landscaping in advance.
7. 8. 6 Life Span of Artwork: Condition assessments and maintenance plans for new art works shall also include an estimated life span for each artwork. This life span shall be selected from one of four categories: 1) temporary -up to five years, 2) mid -span -up to fifteen years, 3) long term -up to fifty years, 4) permanent or site integrated- part of site/ structure and cannot be removed.
7. 9 Implementing Conservation Treatment and Maintenance
City of Redondo Beach Public Art Master Plan
7. 9. 1 Roles and Responsibilities: When treatment or maintenance is approved, the City, in conjunction with its partners, shall handle repairs, in consultation with a qualified art conservator. The artist shall be notified (if possible) of all repairs and may be involved in the treatment and maintenance of the work, if practical and for a reasonable fee. If an artist disagrees with the conservator' s condition assessment and does not think the suggested alterations are in keeping with the integrity of the artwork, they may request changes to the repair plan -in writing to the City. Other independent contractors shall be involved in treatment and maintenance as needed.
7. 9. 2 Repair by Site Owners and Managers: To ensure proper repair, governmental partners, site owners and site managers shall consult with the City before beginning any cleaning procedures, treatment or emergency maintenance activities conducted on artwork under the jurisdiction of the City. The Public Art program shall periodically request an update from these partners of the public artwork in their possession.

SECTION 9: DEACCESSI'ON AND REMOVAL
9. 1 Deaccessioning is the process by which the City decides that a public artwork may be removed from the City' s collection. It is the primary responsibility of the City to preserve and protect the artworks under its control for the people of the City of Redondo Beach. The City will dispose of works of art in its collections only in the public interest and as a means of improving the quality of the collection. Since artworks are acquired by the City through a thorough review process, deaccessioning should be considered only after five years following acceptance. The need for relocation or the temporary removal from public display does not automatically necessitate deaccession. Deaccessioning should be cautiously applied only after careful and impartial evaluation of the artwork to avoid the influence of fluctuations of taste and the premature removal of an artwork from the collection.
City staff will manage the deaccession process working with the City Council and the Public Art Commission. The process will ensure that the interests of the public, the intent of the donor (if any), and the interests of the cultural communities are all given careful consideration. Because of its complex legal and ethical nature, the deaccession process requires even greater deliberation than the acquisition of objects and will be handled in an open forum. All final decisions regarding the deaccession of any artwork will be made at regularly scheduled public meetings of the City Council.
All proceeds from any sale or auction of a work of art, less any payment due the artist under the California Resale Royalties Act, will be used for the exclusive purpose of acquiring or maintaining one or more other works of art for the same public structure or purpose for which the original work of art was acquired. If that is not possible, then the proceeds will made part of the Public Art Fund and be used to acquire or maintain a work of art to be placed within the City.
9. 2 Removal from Public Display
While the intent of acquisition of artwork or creation of public art is for permanent public display, circumstances and/ or conditions may arise that make it prudent for the Commission, on behalf of the public interest to remove an artwork from public display.
9. 2. 1 0ne or more of the following conditions must apply in order for an artwork to be considered for deaccession:

The work is of poor quality.
A similar but superior example exists in the collection.
The work is a forgery.
No suitable site for the work is available.
Significant adverse public reaction is documented over an extended period of time (5 years or more).

ADDING CHAPTER 6 TO TITLE 10
OF THE REDONDO BEACH MUNICIPAL CODE
TO PLANNING AND ZONING
PAGE NO. 1
ATTACHMENT D
The fostering of public art in the City and the establishment of a Public Art Program was due, in part, to the hard work of the late John Parsons, a former Planning Commissioner, Harbor Commissioner and Council Member who dedicated himself to this purpose.
The visual and aesthetic quality of development projects has a significant impact on property values, the local economy and vitality of the city. Public art illuminates the diversity and history of a community, and points to its aspirations for the future. A wealth of art and culture in the public realm will foster the economic development of the community.
To achieve these goals, public art should be integrated into development projects citywide. For best results, consideration of public art should be integrated into project planning at the earliest possible stage, and the selected artist(s) should become a member of the project's design team early in the design process.
