13 Agenda Item No. 5A. Consider: Recommendation on Display of Public Arts Policy
14
15 At the January 25, 2011 meeting, City Council reviewed the Display of Public Art Policy
16 and made several revisions to the Policy. Assistant City Manager Blagg presented the
17 revisions to the Arts Council for their recommendation. Revisions concerned the length
18 of display time, the amount of floor and wall space and the sale of art by the artists.
19
20 The Southlake Arts Council reviewed the proposed changes and expressed many
21 concerns about the maximum period of display time and the percentage of floor and
22 wall space. The Southlake Arts Council did not favor a two week limit for professional
23 artist displays. It was noted that a variance to the two week limit may be granted by City
24 Council and so it was suggested that the Permit application include a section to indicate
25 the length of time the artist request their art to be displayed -- two, four or six week
26 period.
