The site visit met at 1:00 p.m. at the waterfront promenade.
Discussion ensued regarding landscaping, maintenance, and the location of the
sculpture, boat slips, and vehicle drop off area. Suggestions were made that the sculpture
encourage interaction with the public, that it be visible from the top of the bluff on Cleveland
Street, and that the budget include a contingency for maintenance and landscaping costs.
Staff will provide a copy of the boat slip plan. It was recommended that the board
request City Council approval for the budget from the discretionary fund before a call to artists is
released.
The site visit adjourned at 1:30 p.m.
