Linda Oliver presented the idea of using ceramics for the DiVosta sculpture.
Charlotte Presensky commented on this idea stating that there were legal issues to be
considered. Charlotte suggested that the Board start by looking at the Agreement to
be sure that the altering of art was allowed. The first reading of the Ordinance was
approved by City Council on February 15, 2007. The second reading will take place

in March. The Garden Station applicant has not come forward to request to appear
before City Council in reference to the issue of the flags on the benches.
4. NEW BUSINESS
The Five -Year Capital Improvement Plan was presented by Charlotte Presensky.
The plan was developed in order to utilize funds from the Art Impact Fund to
produce art. Charlotte is recommending going back to the five -year plan in order to
come up with a way to allocate funds. Funds set aside in the Art Impact Fund are
considered unallocated funds until there is a project deemed at which time they
become allocated funds. The five -year plan is a road map on how these funds will be
used. In the budget process each year you would include your five -year plan
anticipating what your funds are in the Art Impact Fund and what your allocations
for use will be. This goes before Council and the funds are allocated once approved.
This shows intention to the public that you are going to spend the funds. Charlotte
suggested that every year in February or March, the Board discuss the use of these
funds. Myra Davis stated she would like the goal for the use of the funds to be one
big objective such as a cultural center or amphitheatre. The Board's consensus was
to continue with the Lakeside project. The allocation of funds to be used for the
Lakeside project will be discussed at next month's meeting in greater detail.
Charlotte agreed that this was a great place to start with the five -year capital
improvement plan and she will attend the next meeting and begin working on this
with the Board.
Linda Oliver tendered her resignation effective immediately.
