Public Art in the City of Liberty Lake The City of Liberty Lake recognizes the value of public art to its citizens and visitors. Public art matters because it is an essential building block for engaging community and conversation, encouraging and inviting imaginative spaces that enliven the public realm and fosters shared community interactions. Art allows citizens to celebrate unique stories and share collective history that inspires us to experience the world with fresh perceptions. We envision public works of art that will transform and activate civic spaces and create a unique identity for the City of Liberty Lake as a destination place. The City of Liberty Lake commenced an exciting civic undertaking in 2018 with the creation of a Parks and Arts Commission (PAC) to manage future art endeavors in the City among other responsibilities. The Commission has developed goals, a vision and mission statement as well as a five-year strategic plan. The goal of the City public art program is to incorporate the work and ideas of artists and designers into public settings while creating connections among artists, project partners and communities. 1.1. Purpose The purpose of this policy is to define the process that will be followed to achieve the following goals: • Establish a diverse collection of public artworks. • Create works of public art with the cooperation of the community. • Involve local, regional and national artists of diverse backgrounds. • Consider economic development and cultural tourism when advocating for public art. • Encourage public dialogue and community involvement. • Incorporate art and design projects of the highest quality throughout the community, creating a museum without walls and making art accessible to all. • Provide a legacy of art and culture for future generations. 1.2. Public Art Funds City Staff and the PAC will work together to develop a program and recommend funding for Public Art (PA) in the annual budget process. Funding for PA will be considered by City Council as part of the annual budget process. PA and PA services will be purchased, procured and selected in accordance with City’s and/or State’s financial and procurement policies. The PAC will develop a five-year strategic plan. This Plan will be adjusted annually based on the approved budget and submitted to City Council for approval.

Community Input Community input on public art projects is important and adds value to the Parks and Arts Commission. There are numerous opportunities for community involvement, public input and discussions of location, safety, and maintenance.

Art in Private Development As municipal public art programs have become increasingly common throughout the nation, private developers are demonstrating a growing commitment to public art. The City of Liberty Lake does not have a formal policy regarding art in private development. Accordingly, the City encourages creative public/private partnerships that enhance the profile of art in the City, support the City’s mission and Public Art Policy and contribute to a culturally vibrant and aesthetically beautiful destination. 2.

Municipal Art Collection The City of Liberty Lake will acquire many works of art that will be displayed in public spaces, including parks, municipal buildings and City offices. This inventory of public art items will be managed and maintained by City staff. 3.1. Collections Maintenance and Responsibilities PAC Responsibilities - The PAC creates and maintains a physical inventory of all artworks in the Municipal Art Collection. The inventory is conducted annually, with findings reported to the City. The inventory record tracks object movement and is updated as needed. An inventory of artworks in the Collection is continuously maintained and includes estimated valuations of objects in the Collection. New donations to the Collection require an appraisal at the time of the gift, typically provided and paid for by the donor. Valuations of artworks are established principally for insurance purposes. - The PAC and City staff oversees the assessment, treatment, maintenance and relocation of artwork. Cleaning and repair of artworks in the Municipal Art Collection are under the direction of City staff, who complies with currently accepted standards of care and conservation. City Staff/Department Responsibilities - City staff and department representatives work with the PAC to identify art under their purview and assist with proper documentation and cataloguing of artworks in the municipal inventory. Following the initial site cataloguing, City staff conducts annual inventories. - Staff is responsible for protecting the artwork from damage caused by watering systems, furniture placement and maintenance equipment, such as mowers. - City staff should report any graffiti, damage or vandalism of artwork in the Collection to the City Administration. The City Administration and/or staff reports the incident to police, corrects the damage and prepares a report for the PAC detailing damage to artworks, whenever possible. Prepared by the Liberty Lake Parks & Arts Commission January 30, 2019 Last Revised: February 20, 2019 City of Liberty Lake Parks and Arts Commission Public Art Policy TABLE OF CONTENTS - Agreements for treatment and maintenance of artworks are developed when needed. These agreements ensure the integrity of the artworks and stipulate the roles of each responsible department in staffing, funding and maintenance for the lifespan of the artworks. These agreements should provide direction to city staff for routine maintenance and cleaning, including frequency and type of work to be performed. 3.2. Maintenance Procedures Objects in the Municipal Art Collection require a wide range of care. The PAC creates an annual maintenance plan and long-term forecast reports to determine current and future Collection needs. City staff works closely with departments to determine funding for special conservation or restoration projects outside the scope of routine maintenance. All documentation, both written and visual, is maintained in an easily retrievable format. Exhibited artworks are labeled with the title, artist and date of the work, at a minimum. At the discretion of City staff and the PAC, artworks may be temporarily placed in storage or loaned to other institutions such as nonprofit galleries and museums. 3.3. Placement of Works of Art Works of art in the Municipal Art Collection may be moved throughout City facilities at the discretion of City staff, considering requests from individual departments. As mentioned in Section 3.2, the PAC works closely with City departments to ensure consensus and open communication for determining site locations for artwork. While the intent is that a site- specific artwork remains in the location for which it was created, City Administration reserves the right to move a piece if circumstances dictate. City Administration may consider relocating site-specific artwork for one or more of the following reasons: -The condition or security of the artwork can no longer be reasonably assured at its current site. -The artwork has become a danger to public safety in its current site. -The site has changed so that the artwork is no longer compatible as placed. 4. Deaccessioning Policy and Procedures 4.1. Process for Deaccessioning • Deaccessioning is the process of removing artwork from the Municipal Art Collection. This policy recognizes that over time there may be reasons to deaccession artworks. Deaccessioning is considered only after careful and impartial evaluation of artworks within the context of the Collection recommended by the PAC and City Staff and approved by City Council; in accordance with 17 U.S. Code 106A. Rights of certain authors to Prepared by the Liberty Lake Parks & Arts Commission January 30, 2019 Last Revised: February 20, 2019 City of Liberty Lake Parks and Arts Commission Public Art Policy TABLE OF CONTENTS attribution and integrity (also known as VARA (Visual Artists Rights Act). Generally, objects are acquired for perpetuity and not with the thought of disposal. In the event that there is living artist (or family of the artist) who desires return of their art after deaccessioning is approved, the City will return the art. • It is also important to state that objects in the Collection should be retained permanently if they continue to be useful to the purposes and activities of the PAC and the Collection, if they continue to contribute to the integrity of the Collection and if they can be properly stored, preserved, used and exhibited. 4.2. Criteria for Deaccessioning Objects may be deaccessioned when conditions require or when such action would improve or refine the Collection. Reasons for deaccessioning may include but are not limited to situations where: • The use of the site has changed, the artwork is no longer appropriate, and the artwork cannot be reasonably protected or maintained. • The artwork’s annual maintenance cost is deemed excessive. • The artwork has been damaged beyond reasonable repair. • The artwork requires extensive conservation or restoration that is cost-prohibitive. • The artwork is deemed inappropriate or requires removal because of new developments in the direction of the Collection. • The artwork was commissioned or accepted with the provision or understanding that it was to have a limited lifecycle or installation period. 4.3. Procedure for Deaccessioning Deaccession of any object from the Collection is based on a written recommendation by the PAC and City staff and the approval by the City Council. The recommendation must specify reasons for the deaccession. City, State and Federal regulations may apply when deaccessioning City property. 4.4. Use of Net Proceeds from Deaccessioning Net proceeds from the sale of deaccessioned objects (i.e., the proceeds of the disposition less all related expenses) must be used on future PA projects only. Net proceeds are designated for and must be used only for the growth or care of the Collection, consistent with acquisition procedures. The donor of a deaccessioned object that enters the Collection as a gift is fully credited in documentary files, in publications and on identifying labels for artwork purchased with proceeds of the sale. The purchased artwork, so credited, is labeled and identified as a "gift of [name of original donor] by exchange."
