MEMORANDUM

TO:	Mayor and Town Council
FROM:	Greenways Commission Glenn Parks, Chair
SUBJECT:	Chapel Hill Public Art Contextual Plan
DATE:	October 25, 2006

The Commission voted unanimously (6-0) to recommend that the Council adopt the plan with the following changes:

• That all Town capital projects include funds for the art component at the beginning of the project and that if the amount is increased from 1% to 2% that capital budgets are adjusted to meet the new requirement.
• That the plan should include a section that specifies what types of projects qualify for percent for art funds. Specifically the Commission believes that maintenance funds such as the Greenways and Small Parks funds in the CIP should be exempt.

Commission members voting were: Glenn Parks (Chair), Mary Blake, Jim Earnhardt, Gary Galloway, Mary Ann Freedman, and Reed Huegerich Absent:   Bill Bracey (Vice Chair)
