III. Consideration of Open Issues
1. "Sail" -Artist Quincy Owens and Luke Crawley. Crawley was present at tonight's meeting.
Medium is Aluminum and Acrylic. Cost is $100,000.00, Dimentions 30' tall and 11' wide.
The Anticipated Maintenance Required/Schedule and cost were not given via proposal.
Proposed location is Monon Boulevard and 2nd Avenue Intersection. Crawley spoke and
gave insight into his Art and Placement. He stated that per guidelines given thru REA this
piece of Art would need to be large scale, interactive, with a light inside for nighttime dis-
play. It is 30' tall and open in middle for people to walk into for a new perspective. Area of
placement is Monon and 2nd. Owens and Crawley were sought out for this Art thru Rundell
Ernstberger Associates (REA) which is a landscaping firm in Indianapolis via Cory Meyers.
Meyers recommended Crawley to REA. The Maintenance plan for this piece of Art is guar-
anteed for 5 (five) years for it's structural and electrical functions. The LED's are approxi-
mated for 15 (fifteen) years. There is a guarantee of 10 (ten) to 15 (fifteen) years on the indi-
vidual colored panels. There is a clear coat on top of each of the colored panels. The mayor
was given 2 (two) design concepts and presentations of which this piece was accepted.
Timetable for install is currently set for an end of year placement as long as all phases in
the City stay on track for this location. This will be the largest scale these artists have done;
they have done 20' prior to this. Crawley is very passionate and excited for this project and
is a local to Indiana via Indianapolis and also teaches in Carmel. VOTE: Strawn-YES, Pat-
terson -Yes, Okamoto -Yes, Saltsgaver-Yes, Poyser-Yes, Burrell -Yes, Westbrook -Yes
Full support of Board.

The Board's Discussion: Where specifically will this be placed. bere isn't direct accesor Example; in the s yet t i it

scapes in the general area of "Love at First Ride"? The Board decided to table this until more
information is provided to us therefore no vote was taken on this tonight.
3. The Board will continue to submit the current form to the City which includes what informa-
tion we will need to see for future Art and it proposed location. We also want to know a current
plan for where all Art that is currently bought and stored in a warehouse will be placed
throughout the City so that we can decide if placement of said Art and it's location is agreed
upon since the Board's job is now only to determine location. Also If RFPs are being made for
public art, then we need to be made aware of that so that we are involved at the beginning of
the process. Some Board Members feel we are left in a conundrum, one in which there doesn't
seem to be a solidified answer. The conundrum is how can we vote on the location of the Art
pieces already bought if we do not know the overall plan for the area in which the Art will be
placed. As well as, if we are to decide on the location of the Art that is already purchased; how
can we decide on said Art location if it is already attached to a bond (bond would have specific
location already decided).
