It will be placed once the concrete is poured and on a tiered structure. "Rock paper Scissors" is set to be placed soon as well. 3. Artist -Arlon Bayliss present at meeting and spoke on the two Art pieces currently commissioned by the City of Carmel. Bayliss is from Anderson, Indiana. He designed for Rosenthal Glass in Germany for 10 years and Blenko Glass in West Virginia for 9 years. 2014 concentrated his professional practice on commissioned public artwork. His pieces are currently displayed in Anderson, Indiana and In Indianapolis Central Library, Indianapolis Hebrew Congregation, Indianapolis International Airport, Town of Speedway, and Carmel, Indiana VI. "Homage to Hoagy" a. Proposed for 3rd Ave SW and City Center Drive roundabout. Cost is $435,167.00. Dimensions are 20'x28' with annual inspection, cleaning as needed by fabricator BoMar Industries for $5,000 p/a as per previous structure called "Beacon Bloom". b. Kiosks were also commissioned and the rendering was shown at meeting. 4 were proposed and included in the original price however the NV corners of the roundabout may not allow for enough right away and so the City of Carmel may only buy 2 for the south sides of the roundabout instead. The Kiosks will be interactive with a crank handle in which a song will play from them. The song selection has not been chosen yet. Bayliss spoke on the fact that a speaker system still needs to be made for the Kiosk and he is working out these details. The "Homage to Hoagy" and the Kiosks are set to be placed in April or May. Kashman mentioned the City is looking into how to unveil this piece. The City is still looking into Licensing for the song and that particular item is not included in the original price. c. The CPAAC recommends that the city establishes which song(s) will be chosen and the licensing is secured before Bayliss starts the building process of the Kiosks. The CPAAC also expressed that they would like to see the Residents of Carmel be able to chose the song(s) for the Kiosks. This could be done thru a competition or voting thru social media. The end thought after speaking with Bayliss and Kashman is that the Kiosks need more specifics brought forth and answers to the questions of which song(s) are chosen, the quality of sound, other specific verbiage that Kiosks will output, information on how the speaker will be encased or displayed and protected, and licensing of the song(s). It was determined that this piece of art is still in the making. VOTE on "Homage to Hoagy" with 2 Kiosks: Patterson -yes, Saltsgaver-yes, Westbrook- yes, Burrell- yes, Poser -yes, Okamoto -yes, Strawn-yes V. "Roses" a. Proposed for North Pennsylvania Street and Old Meridian. Cost is $360,000.00. Dimensions are 10'x40' with annual inspection, cleaning as needed by fabricator BoMar Industries for $5000 p/a as per previous structure called "Beacon Bloom". b. The CPAAC asked why the image of roses were selected for that area considering the businesses in that area which led to asking Kashman if there might be changes to that area over time. Kashman and Bayliss had mentioned that there might be a name change to that area and more walkability in the area. The original name is "The Point" and it may change to something with roses hence the art piece called "Roses". Bayliss stated that the rendering isn't finished yet and is only in the conceptual form. The Height of the piece was discussed with Bayliss mentioning that it might be too tall currently and he will look into scaling that down. c. The CPAAC is asking for Bayliss and Kashman to come back and speak to us once they have answers to how the area will look in the future including walkability and a possible name change of the area before the CPAAC can vote for the location of this art piece "Roses".
