The Commission should reconsider its prior recommendation to change the artwork. Instead the Commission may consider advising the artist of the concerns expressed by the member of the public and seek a response from the artist on whether he or she would like to remove the artwork, or modify it, or replace it with another. This decision lies solely with the artist. 2. If the City intends to continue with the Utility Box Art program, it is recommended that the program’s guidelines and application be amended to include a defined theme(s). 3. The program’s guidelines and application should require an artist who wishes to participate to sign an agreement waiving the artist’s rights under applicable federal and state laws, as well as an acknowledgement of the City’s right to alter, modify, and/or remove the artwork, and other contractual obligations as deemed appropriate by the City Attorney’s Office. 3. 18-1573 Cultural Commission Work Plan Updates and Discussion for FY2018-19 Recommendation: There is no staff recommendation.
