This Revision contains all elements ofour previous proposal and incorporates the following modifications identified on our site visit in September. Display area changed from 18’ to 16’. The number and style of sculptures remains the same, however the height of the tallest sculptures was increased by approximately two feet. This allowed us to place the surrounding sculptures closer. Also, we changed the concrete circle to an octagon. We felt that the octagon provides a better relationship to seating in the area as well as a cleaner transition to join the pavers surrounding the sculpture.The finish texture of concrete surface will be chosen after a local contractor in Southlake is selected. Lighting placement identified. Lighting will be accomplished with eighteen (18) in ground color LED RGB lights. Simulations included. Color control and brightness will be accomplished with an RF remote control. Stainless steel sleeves will be installed at base of each shaft to cover mounting screws and prevent tampering. Cost and timeline remainunchanged.
