Developing clear expectations, ordinances, <br />and guidelines around the scope and purpose of the program is important, as is developing <br />guidance for program administration, criteria for what qualifies as a bona fide public art installation <br />on private property, and allowable use/purpose of funds collected. With this in mind and based on <br />feedback from other local jurisdictions, staff recommends: <br />• Adopting an ordinance adding a new chapter 13.20 to Title 13 of the PMC establishing a <br />public art contribution requirement for development <br />• Updating the City’s Master Fee Schedule to add a public art contribution in-lieu fee. <br />Page 8 of 116
