Page 1 of 3  DISTRICT IV ADVISORY BOARD AGENDA 08-05-2019 NEW BUSINESS PERCENT FOR ART: Request to designate a percentage of the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) for public art Presented by Arlen Hamilton and Martha Linsner. In an effort to enhance the transparency of Public Art funding, the members of an Ad Hoc group for Public Art hope to include a specific, easily calculated amount for Public Art in the 2019-2028 CIP. As funding amounts are recommended by the Design Council, they will be imbedded in budgets for specific projects. RECOMMENDED ACTION: Provide feedback and suggestions to the Ad Hoc group as they move forward with preparing the draft ordinance for presentation to the City Council. ZON2019-00023: The applicant is seeking to change the zoning classification in order to accommodate a tenant engaged in the business of tattoo and body piercing located on the south side of the 500 block of West Douglas, which is not permitted within the LC Limited Commercial District; but is permitted in the GC General Commercial District. If the building was located on the north side of the 500 block of West Douglas, the property would be properly zoned for the use. The same would be true if the building was located across the alley to the south. Therefore, staff finds the proposed uses are not out of character with the intent to provide a wider variety of commercial uses consistent with the existing commercial properties along this major commercial corridor. RECOMMENDED ACTION: Based upon the information available at the time the staff report was prepared, staff recommends APPROVAL of the application. OLD BUSINESS NONE BOARD AGENDA Updates, Issues, and Reports Opportunity is provided for the Council Member and District Advisory Board Members to report any activities, events, or concerns in the neighborhoods and/or Council District. Recommended Action: Provide comments/take appropriate action.
