STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Recommend one of the options regarding a temporary public art program featuring multiple treatments by different artists on the same theme. FINANCIAL IMPACT: The cost for a temporary art program would vary, depending on such factors as the cost for fiberglass figures and the stipend to artists to paint the figures. Revenue could also be recouped from sales of the figures after the display ends, if the program chosen supports the selling of art. DESCRIPTION: At its May 9, 2019 regular meeting, the Heritage and Cultural Arts Commission reviewed the concept of a temporary art program in which fiberglass or plastic figures are decorated by various artists and are displayed, often within walking distance of each other and in a pedestrian area such as a downtown or Park. The Commission voted unanimously to support this type of program. At its June 13, 2019 meeting, the Commission reviewed several potential figure designs available from a supplier that is used by Danville and other cities to provide blank fiberglass forms that artists can decorate. Commissioners indicated an interest in artwork that could later be auctioned off to residents and businesses for private display. A versatile size for display in front of a business or in a residential yard is approximately 24”-36” high. The Commission also suggested something functional – such as lawn chairs, which would complement the City’s New American Backyard branding. 6.1 Packet Pg. 13 Page 2 of 2 On a motion by Commissioner Bennett, seconded by Commissioner Gabriell, the Commission voted unanimously to request pricing on shamrock sculptures and unpainted wood lawn chairs. Price Quotes: Shamrocks Cowpainters.com: For approximately 36”x 36”, molding roughly $3,000, with an obligation to place a minimum order of 20 shamrocks at approximately $700 each. The expense would be $17,000, plus tax and shipping. Fiberglassanimals.com: For approximately 36”x 36”, no charge for a mold, with an obligation to place a minimum order of 25 shamrocks at a price of $1,125 each’. The expense would be $28,125, plus tax and shipping. Chicagofiberglass.com: For approximately 36” x 36”, molding for $6,000, no minimum order requirement and individual shamrocks for $675. The expense would be $19,500, plus tax and shipping. Additional options: 1) Unpainted Adirondack-style wood lawn chairs – which could be decorated under a temporary public art program – are widely available from a variety of sources. Staff has included a few examples priced between $139-$159 per pair of chairs for an Adirondack-style loveseat. The total expense for 20 pairs is expected to be between $1,390-$3,180, plus tax and shipping. (Attachment 1) 2) Fiberglass Book Bench from Chicago Fiberglass Works (Attachment 2) The bench is 48" x 38"x 38" and approximately 170 lbs. Cost as a ready to paint piece is $1500 per item with no minimum order requirement.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Discuss and recommend an update to align the Historic Park Master Plan with current Park use and amenities. FINANCIAL IMPACT: This report is for discussion and as such, there is no financial impact associated with this item. However, based on City Council direction, future items on this topic may include financial impacts. DESCRIPTION: Background On July 18, 2017, City Council directed Staff to bring back for discussion a report outlining the progress of the improvements identified as a result of t he Dublin Historic Park Master Plan. During the August 15, 2017, City Council meeting, Staff provided the estimated costs for each of the five (5) phases of the Dublin Historic Park Master Plan and recommended the modification of the current plan to exclude phases from the Park. At that meeting, City Council directed Staff to review the current Dublin Historic Park Master Plan last updated by Royston Hanamoto Alley and Abey (RHAA) in June 2008, have a consultant do preliminary work to gauge feasibility of expanding the cemetery and present the findings to the Heritage and Cultural Arts Commission for discussion. 6.2 Packet Pg. 17 Page 2 of 4 As a preview, the Master Plan was outlined in five phases with a total cost of $32,160,000 for the 10-acre Park. Phase 1 - Kolb Farm Buildings Phase 1 was considered completed with the placement of the Kolb House, Sunday School Barn, Hay Barn and other historic farm buildings to create the current layout of Heritage Park and Museums. The total cost to complete Phase 1, including land acquisition, was $15,161,000. Phase 2 - Orchard Garden Phase 2 included Walnut trees planted in orderly rows to simulate an orchard, like those once seen throughout the area. North -south and east-west paths between the trees would create a grid of Culture Walks showing aspects of daily life intersecting with Diversity Streams representing different cultures that settled here. This phase would also include the Rancho Playground with Hands on History play activities, picnic area, reflecting pool, artifact cubes with cast bronze replicas of historic objects, and memory walls featuring historic photos. Phase 2 would require demolition of existing turf, regrading, irrigation changes, construction of a pavilion, and installation of new landscape (including the trees), hardscape and park furnishings. Estimated cost in 2017: $6,040,000. Not currently funded Phase 3 - Freshwater Corner Phase 3 included an interactive play fountain to be installed at the northeast corner of the park, currently an unused turf area. Other f eatures of the Freshwater Corner would include a pergola structure, reminiscent of the wrap-around porch of the Amador Hotel, which once occupied that spot. This phase would also include plaza space with in - ground signage commemorating the corner as a historic stagecoach route crossroads, entry monuments and special paving treatment on Donlon Road. Phase 3 would require demolition of existing turf, regrading, irrigation changes, construction of a pergola and fountain, and installation of new landscape (incl uding the trees), hardscape and park furnishings and paving. Estimated cost in 2017: $2,930,000. Not currently funded Phase 4 - Cemetery Expansion Phase 4 consisted of the acquisition of land south of the park, currently owned by the Dublin Historic Preservation Association. It includes placement of in-ground burial plots (34); cremation vaults (200), low columbarium niches (375), and 1,860 high columbarium niches. Phase 4 would include land acquisition, construction of a pedestrian bridge across Dublin Creel, grading, landscaping, hardscape and park furnishings. Estimated cost in 2017: $6.5 million. Not currently funded, though approximately $4 million has been set aside in General Fund reserve. Phase 5 - Dublin Pioneer Cemetery Renovations Phase 5 included renovations to the existing Dublin Pioneer Cemetery with include improved pathways, renovated landscaping at the cemetery entrance and along Hawthorne Lane, a renovated plaza near Old St. Raymond Church to include seating 6.2 Packet Pg. 18 Page 3 of 4 and shade, a low stone wall along Donlon Way and a new low columbarium wall at the north edge of the cemetery. Phase 5 would also include demolition of the existing church courtyard, new landscaping, new hardscape and paving. Estimated cost in 2017: Funded as part of the current Capital Improvement Program as Project PK0215. Scheduled to begin after review of the Dublin Historic Park Master Plan. Current Park Use Since the Kolb Farm buildings were added to bring Heritage Park and Museums to its current configuration, uses of a few buildings have changed. In the Master Plan, the Kolb House was originally intended to have just two period museum rooms in the dining and living rooms, discovery rooms (Hands on History) in the bedrooms, with the kitchen used as a staff kitchen, parlo r as a public room, and the entire upstairs used for archival storage. At one point it housed staff offices. Today the entire house - save one bedroom - is used as period museum rooms, decorated with original furnishings and open to the public for tours du ring events, certain museum open hours and upon request. The Hay Barn was intended as a shade shelter with play area below. However, as the area underneath is not accessible to disabled customers, it is roped off from the public and used as storage space for the tractor and other event supplies. The Sunday School Barn is being used as intended as reception space and occasionally a small black box theater. It is more regularly used as a performing arts classroom space. The Old House is being used as intended as a restroom building, with the back portion originally a small art studio and now being used as a storage and prep room for the growing Hands on History program. Old St. Raymond Church is used as intended as a rental venue. The Schoolhouse Museum is used as intended to house permanent and temporary exhibits. Staff offices have been relocated into the back of this building. The Carriage House and Sheds are used as collections and cemetery supply storage areas. The Pump House has been used as a staffed information kiosk during events but is generally unused. The front lawn on Donlon Way, which was originally intended as event space, is not used as such, because of logistical difficulty accessing it between the fence posts. Instead the back lawn, where the Orchard Garden is proposed to go, is used for event space, including the annual Harvest Fair. The Dublin Boulevard lawn, where the Freshwater Corner is proposed to go, is occasionally used as overflow space for special events. 6.2 Packet Pg. 19 Page 4 of 4 The small outdoor stage near the bank can be used for events. Staff Recommendation As noted above, the City has expended nearly $16.6 million on the park to date. The future phases of park remaining total approximately $17 million. Staff believes that the community views this park as complete and that the additional, unidentified funding necessary would not add value to this unique facility. Therefore, Staff recommends eliminating phases two, three and four. During the August 15, 2017 City Council Meeting, a represen tative of the Dublin Historic Preservation Association and another Community member were in support of excluding or postponing phases two and three and considering the feasibility of the Cemetery expansion. An important note about the Cemetery Expansion (phase four), the consultant RHAA, who prepared the Cemetery Renovation and Expansion in 2014 was contracted to update the economic analysis of the expanding the cemetery. Their analysis in 2018 indicated that the original business model, using a partner to operate the cemetery, was no longer feasible. They estimated it would take 15+ years of operation to break even on the initial capital outlay, more than 30 years to be profitable and more than 50 years to raise enough endowment funds to provide perpetual care for the grounds. The Parks and Community Services Commission considered this item at their June 17, 2019, meeting and voted unanimously to eliminate phases two, three and four. The Commission did express interest in adding public artwork, outdoor interpretive signage or other self-guided history displays, and some type of a memorial garden or wall where community members can honor loved ones with an engraved brick or some similar tribute. NOTICING REQUIREMENTS/PUBLIC OUTREACH: N/A ATTACHMENTS: None. 6.2 Packet Pg. 20 Page 1 of 3 STAFF REPORT HERITAGE & CULTURAL ARTS COMMISSION DATE: July 11, 2019 TO: Honorable Chair and Commissioners FROM: Tegan McLane, Heritage & Cultural Arts Manager SUBJECT: Dublin Crossing LLC Boulevard Public Art Prepared by: Tegan McLane, Cultural Arts & Heritage Manager EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The Heritage and Cultural Arts Commission will consider public art designs for the Boulevard development. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Recommend that the City Council approve public art designs for the B oulevard development. FINANCIAL IMPACT: This is developer-installed artwork. There are no City Funds expended for the artwork itself. DESCRIPTION: Boulevard is a multi-neighborhood residential development in the Dublin Crossing Specific Plan. The development is being constructed in five phases, and the Developer is opting to install public art on site. The total public art expenditure required for all five phases is in excess of $2.37 million. Due to the complexity of the project, phased nature of the construction and high valuation of the artwork, City Council approved art installation in stages, according to a Public Art Master Plan approved by City Council on October 17, 2017. (Attachment 1). The approved Boulevard Public Art Master Plan called for the Developer to present individual pieces of artwork for review at a Heritage and Cultural Arts Commission (HCAC) meeting. Dublin Crossing LLC, is now ready to seek approval for its phase 1 art pieces, with a combined value of approximately $898,000. Upon recommendation by the Heritage and Cultural Arts Commission, the Developer is required to seek final approval of the proposed artwork by the City Council. 7.1 Packet Pg. 21 Page 2 of 3 Artist Selection Process The Public Art Master Plan encourages private developers to follow an ar tist selection process consistent with the City’s policies for selection of artists and artworks. Boulevard employed a process similar to the City’s own “combination” method. An open call for designs was published on several websites that list public art o pportunities. In addition, the Developer invited specific public artists whose work it felt might be appropriate for the community. From these submissions, the Developer compiled a short list, conducted interviews and selected the three artists it felt wer e the best fit for the community. Artists and Design Proposals At this time Boulevard is presenting designs by three artists. (Attachment 2) Sculptor Kevin Box of Santa Fe, New Mexico, creates monumental metal sculptures that mimic delicate origami, the Japanese art of paper folding. Boulevard will include two of Mr. Box's sculptures. Mr. Box's Rising Peace will serve as a gateway monument opposite the Recreation Center. It will feature five orizuru, or paper cranes, stacked upon a natural boulder in arch. Cranes are considered the most classic of origami designs. Cranes are a symbol of peace in Japan. The Developer plans to mount companion "unfolded" cranes on the exterior wall of the Recreation Center, so the public can see how the design is made. Mr. Box will also create Iron Horses, a trio of monumental origami horses in white, black and natural bronze, to serve as a gateway where the Iron Horse Trail enters the community. Sculptor David Duskin of Petaluma will create a monumental sculpture for th e Gallery pocket park. Mr. Duskin, who is trained as a blacksmith, will employ an unusual technique whereby Cor-ten steel is heated and inflated to create a balloon-like effect. A pair of 20-foot columns will be arranged so that viewers can walk between th em. The interior surfaces will be decorated with stainless and bronze discs. Tyler Van Der Steppen of Ogden, Utah, will create several functional art pieces - bike racks and benches. The bike racks will resemble wine corks with a spiral corkscrew upon which bikes can be locked. The bike rack will have a built-in compressor for inflating bike tires. The benches are designed with giant concrete hands providing the vertical support for colorful horizontal seating surfaces. For example, a hand in shaka sign will support a bright blue surfboard-shaped bench. The shaka, or hang loose, sign is a friendly gesture borrowed from Hawaiian surf culture. Other benches will use the hand sign for “I love you,” and the supportive two thumbs up gesture. Staff Review Preliminary designs were reviewed internally by the Planning Division and Public Art staff. Staff has no concerns with the safety or design of the proposed artwork. Community Outreach In addition to including City Staff in the review and critique of the artwo rk, as specified in the Public Art Master Plan, Boulevard hosted a public reception on Tuesday, June 18, where members of the public could meet the artists and view renderings and tabletop 7.1 Packet Pg. 22 Page 3 of 3 models of the proposed art. As required, Boulevard mailed notices to its residents and neighbors within 300 feet of their property, inviting them to view and comment on the design. Approximately 75 people attended the reception. Boulevard received a total of 18 written comment cards, with positive feedback about all of the proposed pieces.

Boulevard Public Art Master Plan (Boulevard Public Art) 2 INTRODUCTION Public art is not an art “form.” Its size can be huge or small. It can tower 50 high or call attention to the paving beneath your feet. Its shape can be abstract or realistic or both, and it may be cast, carved, built, assembled, or painted. It can be site-specific or stand in contrast to its surroundings. What distinguishes public art is the unique association of how it is made, where it is, and what it means. Public art can express community values, enhance our environment, transform a landscape, heighten our awareness, or question our assumptions. Placed in public sites, this art is there for everyone, a form of collective community expression. Public art is a reflection of how we see the world – the artist’s response to our time and place combined with our own sense of who we are. INTRODUCTION | 7.1.a Packet Pg. 26 Attachment: 1. Boulevard Public Art Master Plan (Boulevard Public Art) 3 CITY GOALS PUBLIC ART PROGRAM GOALS Establish and enhance pedestrian friendly public spaces such as parks, plazas, path- ways, public restrooms, parking lots and other places where people gather. Strengthen the unique character of individual neighborhoods, business districts and transit corridors with artwork that relates to the site’s purpose, history and nat- ural environment. Provide numerous opportunities for Dublin’s citizens to gain a deeper understand- ing and appreciation for visual art. Enhance the City’s identity and regional image by actively promoting Dublin’s unique public art collection. Encourage the creation of artworks that are integrated into the City’s built environ- ment, including signage, gateways, sidewalks, bus stops, bollards, parking structures, crosswalks and other public amenities. Ensure community support for the artworks through public participation in artist selection and artwork development. CITY GOALS | 7.1.a Packet Pg. 27 Attachment: 1. Boulevard Public Art Master Plan (Boulevard Public Art) 4 BOULEVARD VISION Boulevard is a master-planned community buzzing with life in the heart of Dublin and walking distance to the Dublin/Pleasanton BART Station. It is also conveniently located near local eateries, shopping, entertainment and the 580/680 freeway inter- change. Our vision is for Boulevard to be Northern California’s destination for vibrant living. Boulevard will be an active, urban community comprised of single-family homes, penthouses, flats, townhomes, and condos. Here, residents will connect and mingle in dynamic social spaces, pedestrian-friendly streets, a walk/bike trail, a Recreation Center with Co-Working Spaces, and 15 uniquely themed neighborhood parks also known as the following Pocket Parks: •The Lounge •The Kitchen •The Retreat •The Well •The Gym •The Garden •The Playground •The Town Square •The Dog House •The Office •The Lawn •The Hangout •The Library •The Track •The Gallery Our Public Art locations were selected based upon the best pedestrian interface po- tential and highest visibility. Nestled throughout the community, the public art pieces will aspire to add visual interest as well as dialog in bringing people together. The Bike Rack Art is both form and functional with the hope to encourage cycling throughout the community which may foster a greener and healthier lifestyle. Our master plan includes an intended donation to the City of Dublin toward the Veteran’s Memorial Artwork, currently planned in our Community Park. We are offering the City $200,000 to increase the scope of the proposed Veteran’s Memorial Art in our community park. We fully support the City Council’s vision to have a significant piece of art which will pay homage to the historic use of the land where Boulevard is located for military installations since World War II. This donation will require future City Council approval. BOULEVARD VISION | 7.1.a Packet Pg. 28 Attachment: 1.

He now resides in Santa Fe, New Mexico with his wife Jennifer. As a boy he lived in Bartlesville, Oklahoma, beneath “the tree that escaped the crowded forest,” Frank Lloyd Wright’s only built skyscraper. Throughout high school Box studied graphic arts and apprenticed summers at an Uncles design firm in Atlanta Georgia. It was in there that Box’s passion for creativity was developed, where he formed his relationship with design and with paper. Box received a four year scholarship to study graphic design at the School of Visual Arts in New York City. Fol- lowing his junior year, an Art History grant took him to Greece for three weeks, providing him the oppor- tunity to see some of the great antiquities of the world first hand. The experience forever changed him, “I realized that all of my graphic design work was ending up in the landfill as trash and I discovered the du- rability of the conversation that continues through the history of art and I wanted to be a part of that.” Box pursued this new passion by changing his major to fine art. He focused on sculpture and art in public places be- cause in his mind “printmaking didn’t fit the challenge.” After graduating with a BFA, he left paper behind and began working in an Atlanta foundry but quickly realized there were more foundries to learn from in Austin, TX. For three years he labored under a self-imposed apprenticeship to become proficient in metal casting. By working in the foundries, he attained an exhaustive knowledge of the casting techniques and fabricating processes necessary to create durable works of art. The artists he worked for mentored him through his exploration of style as well as the business of art. Eventually his dedication helped him manage and build one of the largest fine art foundries in Texas and Box used that opportunity to develop his own voice. “The best thing I ever did was to trade a raise in pay for casting rights in the foundry. I moved to the smallest town I had ever lived in to be closer to the shop and worked there from dawn till dusk. ” That decision afforded him the freedom of experimentation. Ignited with inspiration, a full service studio to work in and a treasure trove of paper found in the warehouse of an old print shop the foundry was rent- ing, he started working with paper again. “It took two years of tireless experimentation for me to devel- op the process of casting paper into bronze, another seven years to perfect, and it continues to evolve today.” From the beginning, Box’s work received recognition from other artists and collectors alike. His unique style married paper with the age old tradition of bronze casting and refreshed audiences. In 2004, he was elected as the youngest member of the National Sculptors Guild and was recognized by Southwest Art Magazine as one of the top 21 artists under 31 in the southwest. Box exhibited throughout the country on a vigorous schedule of festival shows that pro- vided him with valuable feedback and direct communication to thousands of connoisseurs and collectors. He dis- covered the art markets of the country and professional galleries that wanted exclusive representation of his work. He continued pursuing art in public places throughout the country and in 2006, moved to Santa Fe, New Mexico. Box continues to push the boundaries of the casting process. His unique style and approach, combined with an innovative vision like no other, contributes to his aspiration of place within 21st Century Art History.

Also included in that list were individuals who own the property, yet may not reside at the location. 471 postcards were mailed via first class postage stamp on August 4, 2017. On August 10, 2017 Boulevard set up a booth at the Emerald Glen Farmers Market in Dublin from 4- 8 PM. Two Boulevard representatives were present along with a rendering of the proposed public art locations. We had approximately 50 guests stop by the booth. Overall the public was pleased to see more Public Art in Dublin. There were general comments made such as the following: • Looks good • Nice of you to share and get community input • Wow, there will be public art too. • I don’t live in Dublin, but it could be a destination to view this art. • Very nice, where will the Valley Children’s Museum be? • Too much traffic, nice to see you are adding another street. Hopefully it helps with Dublin Blvd traffic. • Locations are fine, when will art be complete? One visitor has been a resident since 2003 had the following comment: • Too much traffic will increase traffic inflow to 580 and 680. Working from home trend is re versing because people are abusing time. Google and Yahoo are no longer offering remote work. Actual Comment Cards - 6 [Copies of comment cards provided in Appendix] 1.

He has a B.A. in art and English literature and an M.F.A. in sculpture. Building on his formal education and a series of apprenticeships, Duskin went into business full-time in 1998. Currently he is working on both public and private commissions and teaching grad students once a week at the Academy of Art University in San Francisco. While David’s work includes both traditional sculpture and architectural metalwork, his focus centers on conceptually driven art in which the work and the site collaborate to bring a more potent experience to the viewer. Some of these pieces are clearly sculpture, while others blur the line between the fine and applied arts. However, in addition to specific conceptual goals, there is always an intention to find new ways to bind location, the object and the artist/viewer in a single web.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Recommend approval to the City Council the Avesta Development Group's proposal for public artwork at its new Senior Care Facility. FINANCIAL IMPACT: This is developer-installed artwork. There will be no City Funds expended for the artwork itself. DESCRIPTION: Avesta Development LLC is developing Elegance at Dublin, a four -story, 66,787 square-foot, 80-unit senior care facility, located on the northwest corner of Amador Valley Boulevard and Donohue Drive. (Attachment 1) As part of the Site Development Review approval by the City Council, Avesta opted to install public art versus paying the in-lieu fee. Per the Public Art Master Plan, all private developers are required to present the proposed artwork for review at a Heritage an d Cultural Arts Commission (HCAC) meeting. Upon recommendation by the Heritage and Cultural Arts Commission, the developer is also required to seek final approval of the proposed artwork by the City Council. Artist Selection Process The Public Art Master Plan encourages private developers to follow an artist selection process consistent with the City’s policies for selection of artists and artworks. Avesta employed a process similar to the City’s own “invitational” method, in which artists are 7.2 Packet Pg. 79 Page 2 of 3 invited to submit designs, based on past works and demonstrated ability to respond to the project conditions or other non-aesthetic program goals. In this case, the builder's goals included creating a peaceful, calm environment, encouraging outdoor socialization and creating a landmark and wayfinding piece. Artist Matthew Placzek specializes in evidence-based design, in which data and ideas from environmental psychology, architecture, neuroscience and behavioral economics influence the design. He has created artwork for dozens of healthcare and senior living facilities, often featuring calming, nature-inspired images, which have been shown to improve patient recovery times, decrease depression and boo st morale. Mr. Placzek's work is also included in the Ronald Reagan Presidential Collection, the U.S. embassy in Prague, presidential residences in Taiwan and Austria and corporate art collections including Guinness Brewing, BMW Corporation, Caterpillar Worldwide and Dayton Hudson. (Attachment 2) Design Proposal Mr. Placzek's proposed piece consists of three colorful butterflies mounted on the facade of the building and a butterfly screen enclosing a front patio. Three large butterflies with colorful acrylic wings will be affixed to the side of the building and serve as a landmark and wayfinding device. A screen of clustered butterflies will enclose a peaceful outdoor patio where residents can interact with each other, as well as staff and guests. (Attachment 3) Staff Review Preliminary designs were reviewed internally by the City’s Planning Division and the Parks and Community Services Department. Staff has no concerns with the safety or design of the proposed artwork. Community Outreach In addition to including City Staff in the review and critique of the artwork, a s specified in the Public Art Master Plan, Avesta displayed the proposed work at the Dublin Senior Center on Wednesday, June 12 from 10:30 a.m.- noon. This day and time were chosen because it is the busiest time of the week at the Senior Center, just prior to lunch and the weekly Bingo game. As required, Avesta mailed notices to neighbors within 300 feet of their property, inviting them to view and comment on the design. Walk-up visitors at the Dublin Senior Center were also encouraged to view the proposal and comment. Approximately 40 people passed the table and stopped to offer feedback about the art, all overwhelmingly positive. Six comment cards were received, all in favor of the selected artwork. One person asked the developer to consider the addi tion of colorful acrylic on the butterfly screen. However, the artist has advised that adding acrylic in the butterfly screen would require different construction methods that are not feasible within the budget.

Artist Matthew Placzek Background and Resume (Avesta Public Art) P L A C Z E K S T U D I O S MONUMENTAL SCULPTURES 3716 LEAVENWORTH STREET • OMAHA, NE 68105 • 402-551-1200 • PLACZEKSTUDIOS.COM BIOGRAPHY An artist for more than three decades, Matthew Placzek’s creations range from small pieces to large-scale sculptures that stand 90 feet tall. No matter the size, his work is transformative, moving and unforgettable. Born in 1964 in Columbus, Nebraska, Matthew entered the world of sculpting at age 14, creating figures of wildfowl and nature he observed near the Platte River. Art shows and competitions followed, and as his visibility increased, his unique style was lauded by many in the art world. While attending Hastings College and Creighton University, he was represented by several art galleries around the country. At the age of 22, Matthew was honored by the U.S. Ambassador to Czechoslovakia, who hosted the artist’s one-man show at the American Embassy in Prague. That same year, he had the honor of presenting an original sculpture of an American bald eagle to President Ronald Reagan. Shortly after creating his first large-scale commission in 1991, Matthew found himself catapulted into the world of municipal and private sculptural art projects. Universities, healthcare centers and corporations came calling, and he welcomed the opportunities to transform their open spaces with stunning works of art. Matthew’s fascination with sculptural composition has evolved into an art form that is both meticulous in detail and free-flowing in design. His focus, once on monumental work, now includes large, multi-faceted sculptural installations; his most recent project features eighty bronze sculptures. In many cities, these pieces have become landmarks that have received widespread acclaim in numerous national art and architectural publications. Making a personal connection between his art and the viewer is essential to Matthew. Through his sculptures, he hopes to evoke an emotional reaction – whether reflective or joyful. Each intricately-detailed piece offers an engaging, interactive experience, inviting viewers to walk around it, feel the different textures, and examine how shadows, layers and movement are created. To date, Matthew’s pieces are included in over fifty hospital, university and corporate collections. With exciting projects always in the works, this artist promises many years of adding beauty to the world and dazzling audiences along the way.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Recommend the public artwork proposed by Yoshio Taylor for City Council approval. FINANCIAL IMPACT: The adopted Capital Improvement Project budget for Jordan Ranch Park Art (PK0318) is $46,980, with $41,000 budgeted for improvements. This will include the artist's fee as well as all design, materials, fabrication, and installation costs. The funding source is the Public Art Fund. DESCRIPTION: Jordan Ranch Park is a 4.9-acre neighborhood park nestled against open space, dedicated in 2018. Amenities include two playground areas (for ages 2 -5 and 6 and up); a basketball court; a grass volleyball court; a group picnic area with tables and barbecues; spaces for informal family picnics; an open space meadow for informal sports, games, and activities; trail access; water fountains; and restrooms. There are five possible seat walls in the playground area, ranging in length from 10’ to 20’. The seat walls are 18”-24” tall. At a minimum, the longest seat wall, Bench A, should have tile art. (Attachment 1) The seat walls have skateboard bumpers. It is anticipated that skateboarders may attempt to skate on at least some of these walls, particularly Benches D and E, which are adjacent to sidewalks. In May 2019, an ad-hoc art committee consisting of Robert Bennett, Kristen Speck, Neelima Thamabala, Evelyn Zhang and Dipti Mallik reviewed portfolios of six tile artists, 7.3 Packet Pg. 100 Page 2 of 3 including some prequalified and some invitational. They requested five artists submit site specific designs. In June 2019, the committee reconvened with Robert Bennett, Evelyn Zhang, Sangreetha Nagaraj and Felicia Wong present to hear design proposals from four artists (or artist teams). Artists were Arteclettica, Denise Hart, Rachel Rodi and Yoshio Taylor. A fifth artist semi- finalist, Juan Lopez declined to submit a proposal. Committee members were invited to personally rank the four submissions, on a scale with one being their first choice and four being their last choice. In the initial ranking vote, proposals from Denise Hart and Yoshio Taylor were tied for first place with two first place votes each, but Yoshio Taylor had a higher overall average score. After some discussion on the merits of each design, the committee recommended Yoshio Taylor be selected as their choice. Sacramento-based sculptor Yoshio Taylor’s design comprises decorative tiled installations on low curved cement seating areas, set around the playground area on Benches A and B. Each one comprises a design for the wall front, and on top of a concrete substrate. The design will be educational as well as visually enriching. The design will show some of the historical significance of Dublin and its surrounding area, with an emphasis on nature. (Attachment 2) The types of tile used will include handmade and carved relief terra -cotta tiles, with representational images such as numbers, letters, horses, trains, flowers and wildlife. Imported porcelain tiles and glass tiles will represent water and unglazed commercial tiles will be used as a community involvement project with Dublin school children. The Art Selection Committee felt strongly tha t the facade of Bench C should also be decorated. They requested that the artist present an option for decorating benches A, B and C, and noted a willingness to sacrifice some of the intricate carving detail in order to stretch the budget to decorate three benches As is Dublin’s practice, the proposal was reviewed by the City’s contract conservator (Attachment 3) and City staff. The artwork is expected to be durable and low maintenance. The conservator recommends minimizing exposure to water, obtaining warranties for the tiling products, stockpiling replacement tiles and documenting the piece thoroughly upon installation to ensure any future repairs preserve the artistic vision. Staff and the ad-hoc art committee recommend Yoshio Taylor’s design, as public art for the Jordan Ranch Neighborhood Park.

Art Conservator's Evaluation of Yoshio Taylor's Jordan Ranch Park Proposal (Jordan Ranch Neighborhood Park Art Selection) Conservation Assessment of Proposed Tiled artworks for Jordan Ranch Neighborhood Park, Dublin Materials: e artist provided the following information via email regarding the materials for attaching the tiles. Mortar: Custom Building Products, Versabond forti ed thin-set mortar. Grout: Custom Building Products, Poly blend, DeLorean gray sanded grout #165. Sealer: Custom Building Products, Tile lab grout and tile sealer. Concrete Cleaner: Scotts outdoor cleaner concentrate. Assessment of Di erent Elements and Maintenance Issues: Tiling and Material Choices: 1. in Set Mortar e rst stage of installation is application of a thin set mortar. e artist is proposing to use Versabond forti ed thin-set mortar by Custom Building Products. is product is a professional formula, all-purpose mortar, polymer-modi ed to provide good bond strength for oor and tile projects. VersaBond® cures uickly even in cold climates and adheres to most surfaces, exceeding ANSI A118.4 and A118.11 without the need for additives. It is suitable for the California temperatures and is a dry, proprietary blend of Portland cement, copolymers, inorganic a regates and chemicals. is is a commonly used thin set mortar used by artists for outdoor tile installations and will be suitable if the moisture barrier recommendations are taken, and the manufacturer’s speci cations are followed. 2. Grout e artist has su ested using Custom Building Products, poly blend, DeLorean gray sanded grout #165. Polyblend® Sanded Grout is a dry, Portland cement based grout with silica sand, inorganic a regates and chemicals. It has passed a number of Applicable Standards American National Standards Institute (ANSI) ANSI A108.10 & A118.6 of the American National Standards for the Installation of Ceramic Tile ASTM International (ASTM) ASTM C109 Standard Test Method for Compressive Strength of Hydraulic Cement Mortars (Using 2-in. or (50-mm) Cube Specimens) ASTM C531 Standard Test Method for Linear Shrinkage ASTM C580 Standard Test method for Flexural Strength ISO 13007-3 Approvals Polyblend® Sanded Grout exceeds ANSI A118.6 standards. Installation must conform to ANSI A108.10. e di erence between a sanded grout and a non-sanded grout is thickness of the grout line and type of tile since sanded grout is more likely to scratch a highly polished tile surface during appliction. Non-sanded grout is only suitable for a grout line of up to ⅛” thick, so the sanded option may be a good choice based on the likely variation in size of grout lines from handmade terracotta relief tiles. 3. Sealer e artist is recommending Tile lab grout and tile sealer, by Custom Building Products. I could not nd this product, but the company recommends a water based uoropolymer called A ua Mix® Sealer’s Choice® Gold to be used with the other two products listed above. is is the most protective of their sealants and works by reducing the porosity of the grout to reduce staining. Fluoropolymers are one of the most high performance coatings currently available in the li uid coatings industry, and it can be reapplied in the future.

Warranties Warranties are always worth obtaining if available and Custom Building Products do provide a limited one year warranty for their products to the original owner. For commercial installations, longer warranties including lifetime warranties, can be obtained so long as the system is all Custom Building Products, and it is pre-approved by the company and recommended manufacturing speci cations are followed. e phone number to call is 1 800 272 8786. 5. Skilled Installers e artist notes in the proposal that he and an assistant will be undertaking the tiling themselves, ‘unless they are not able to do so’. Commercial warranties do not necessarily re uire the use of a certi ed tile contractors, 5 star NTCA contractor or members of the National Tile Contractors Association, but the artist will have to meet all the re uired building codes and TCNA guidelines. Other Considerations: Concrete Substrate: e benches are formed from cast concrete, presumably with an iron armature. All are located with their backs to landscaping, a combination of grass, dirt and plants. e watering system is unknown, but moisture holding materials such as dirt will be in contact with the underside of the concrete slabs as well as the rear sides. In addition, the concrete could be in direct contact from recycled water from irrigation systems. Constant moisture against concrete can lead to a number of issues such as salt formation/e orescence on the concrete and mortar that appears as white insoluble crystals and blanching of the color on tiles. Chloride ions in recycled water can also lead to rusting of the iron rebar armature within the concrete, that expands the metal leading to cracks and ultimately losses of concrete and tile. e City can help by minimizing risks and long term maintenance costs by taking some precautions during the casting and installation process: ●Installing a vapor barrier underneath the slab during casting ●Having an area of hard landscaping, 12-24” behind the benches to act as a barrier layer to moisture ●Installing a drip system so that no sprinkler water comes into contact with the artworks ●Applying a coating to the concrete before the mortar is applied. is should be compatible with the mortar used by the artist. Since the artist is planning to use a Custom Building Products system, the same company should recommend a sealer. e company currently recommends RedGard® Waterproo ng and Crack Prevention Membrane. Stockpiling Tiles: Although tiled artworks are generally one of the most stable types of public art installations, one of the problems for long term preservation is the availability of replacement tiles. Manufacturers o en change the range of colors of a particular line or designs are phased out. Because of this, it is recommended for the City to re uest a stockpile of replacement tiles for repairs over time. Edges tend to be the rst area where losses form, and so having a selection of tiles to choose from will extend the life of the artwork and maintain the artist’s vision for the longest possible time. e artist provided the following information on the tile suppliers: Dal tile Sacramento, contact is DA for unglazed 4"x 4" edge unglazed tiles. Cortopassi Tile and Stone Sacramento for the other tiles-contact is George. Preservation-Arts.com Page 5 of 6 7.3.c Packet Pg. 119 Attachment: 3. Art Conservator's Evaluation of Yoshio Taylor's Jordan Ranch Park Proposal (Jordan Ranch Neighborhood Park Art Selection) Conservation Assessment of Proposed Tiled artworks for Jordan Ranch Neighborhood Park, Dublin Skate Boarders: Although the Park is hopefully gated, skateboarders can be very attracted to grinding along the edges of curved walls. is results in loss and breakage of the tiles along the edges. e City should monitor this situation and consider some clips/deterrents if this is seen to be happening. Since the benches are already formed, perhaps this can be monitored before the tile is installed. Documentation: As damage and losses occur to the artwork over time, it is helpful to have a full detailed photographic record of the decorative scheme in the archives to refer to. is can be undertaken by the conservators shortly a er installation. Recommendations: ●Minimizing moisture in and against the concrete benches will ensure the long term preservation of this artwork and minimize maintenance costs over the long term. ●Obtaining warranties for the tiling products is recommended, and will ensure that the tiling is installed according to manufacturer's speci cations. ●Stockpiling tiles will ensure replacements are available in case losses occur. ●Documenting using detailed photography of the di erent sections will enable losses to be repaired accurately over time, and ensure that the artistic vision is preserved. Maintenance Budget: Estimated Annual Maintenance: To include surface cleaning, replacing missing tiles, and periodic recoating of the A ua Mix® Sealer’s Choice® Gold NB: is assumes that there are no issues from moisture and all the recommendations noted above have been addressed. Team of 2 people for one 8 hour day, with documentation, materials and travel: Conservator- 8 hours x $120=$960 Technician- 8 hours x $95=$760 Documentation: 2 hours $240 Travel: $60 Materials: $150 Total : $2,120 *Every year, it is anticipated that the costs may increase as losses occur, and replenishing the sealer every two-three years. Conclusions: In general, the artwork looks well thought out with a good uality range of materials being proposed. With a few precautions at the beginning, this artwork should re uire relatively low maintenance and last an extended period of time.
