SUBJECT:Downtown Village Public Art SelectionPrepared by:Shaun Chilkotowsky,Parks & Community Services Manager
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:The Heritage and Cultural Arts Commission will consider Public Art proposals and make a recommendation to the City Council. The artwork will be located in the public right-of-way at the northwest corner of the intersection of Dublin Boulevard and Village Parkway.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:Consider the Public Art proposals and recommend one proposal to the City Council for approval.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:This project is funded in the Fiscal Year 2024-2029 Capital Improvement Program (Project PA0123). The budget for the artwork is estimated at $250,000. The Public Art Fund is the funding source, and no General Fund dollars are being expended on this project.
DESCRIPTION:BackgroundOn June 4, 2024, the City Council approved the 2024-2029 Five-Year Capital Improvement Program Update, which included public art to be installed in the Downtown Dublin planning area.The City anticipates installing a monumental sculpture at the northwest corner of the intersection of Dublin Boulevard and Village Parkway. This location is within Downtown Dublin, and more precisely, the Village Parkway District, which is one of three Districts within the Downtown area. Village Parkway is a pedestrian-oriented District that also accommodates through traffic. In recent years, the Village Parkway District has been branded as “The Village”with ornamental light poles and street banners. Additionally, the City, in partnership with property owners, has made a concentrated effort to bring an outdoor dining presence to the area, making it vibrant and walkable. It is anticipated that future artwork will help define this space further.

As artists were developing proposals, they were asked to connect the artwork with existing branding and signage. Additionally, this artwork will be highly visible along Dublin Boulevard, the main east-west thoroughfare in Dublin.Artist SelectionOn April 5, 2024, Staff issued a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) seeking qualified artists (Attachment 1). Interested artists submitted a portfolio and resume to be considered for invitation to develop a site-specific design proposal. The deadline for the RFQ was May 13, 2024. The City received sixty-five responses from qualified artists. On August 15, 2024, an ad-hoc art selection committee met to review the sixty-five portfolios and resumes. The committee selected seven artists and invited them to provide a site-specific design proposal for this project. The ad-hoc selection committee reconvened on November 13, 2024, to review the site-specific design proposals. Six design proposals were reviewed as one artist backed out of the project. After deliberations, the ad-hoc committee selected three proposals for consideration. These proposals were from artists Mirek Struzik, Ride Art Studio, and Sijia Chen Studio. The full proposal from each artist is included as Attachments to this Staff report.Next StepsThe Commission is being asked to review the three site-specific design proposals and make a recommendation to the City Council for consideration. It is anticipated that the City Council will consider the Heritage and Cultural Arts Commission recommendation in February 2025. Following City Council approval and execution of a Public Art Agreement, the project is anticipated to take 18 months to complete. As is Dublin’s practice, the City’s contract art conservator and City Staff reviewed the proposals. The artwork from all three artists is expected to be successful upon installation, of the utmost permanence, and maintained utilizing traditional art conservation methods. The full assessments from the City’s contract art conservator are included as Attachment 5.

REQUEST FOR QUALIFICATIONS
Public Art – Monumental Sculpture
Downtown Dublin/Village Parkway
RFQ ISSUE DATE: April 5, 2024
RFQ DEADLINE: May 13, 2024, 4:00 p.m. PST
The City of Dublin invites artists with experience creating monumental sculptures to
submit qualifications for an upcoming, large-scale public art project to be installed at
the intersection of Dublin Boulevard and Village Parkway in the Downtown area of
Dublin, California. From this list of qualified artists, the City will invite up to five artists
to develop project specific proposals for consideration.
BACKGROUND
The City of Dublin, incorporated in 1982, is one of the fastest growing communities in
California. Dublin is located in the Tri-Valley region, about 30 miles east of San
Francisco, bordered by the cities of Pleasanton, Livermore, and San Ramon. Dublin has
a robust public art program, with a municipal collection of more than 35 works,
primarily outdoor sculptures, murals, and tile works acquired or commissioned in the
last 20 years.
In 2020, the City updated its Public Art Master Plan. The Public Art Master Plan
emphasizes highly visible artwork along major thoroughfares and prioritizes artworks
within Downtown Dublin. This monumental sculpture project is anticipated to be along
Dublin Boulevard, the main east-west thoroughfare in Dublin and the eastern gateway
to Downtown Dublin.
MONUMENTAL SCULPTURE OPPORTUNITY
Downtown Village Art Project
The City anticipates installing a monumental sculpture at the northwest corner of the
intersection of Dublin Boulevard and Village Parkway. This location is within Downtown
Dublin, and more precisely, the Village Parkway District, which is one of three Districts
within our Downtown area. Village Parkway is a pedestrian-oriented District that also
accommodates through traffic. The District is predominantly a commercial district,
largely developed for retail, office, and certain automotive uses. This intersection is a
highly visible location with significant vehicular and pedestrian traffic.
The artwork will be located at the southern end of Village Parkway, which in recent years
has been branded as “The Village” with ornamental light poles and street banners.
Although located at a large intersection, many community members consider The Village
to be the main pedestrian area of Downtown due to its size compared to the other two
Attachment 1
12
Page 2 of 7
Downtown Districts. It is worth noting that the Retail District is undergoing its
redevelopment. It will be home to a new Town Square Park with surrounding housing
and retail to serve as the City’s pedestrian-friendly and walkable Downtown.
The Village sits just east of the Retail District and is separated from the rest of the
Downtown by I-680. As a result, there has been a concentrated effort to brand this area
as The Village and bring an outdoor dining presence to the area, making it vibrant and
walkable. It is anticipated that future artwork will help define this space further. Artists
selected to develop site specific proposals will be asked to connect existing branding and
signage.
The Vision for Downtown Dublin that includes all three Districts is a vibrant and
dynamic commercial and mixed-use center that provides a wide array of opportunities
for shopping, services, dining, working, living, and entertainment in a pedestrian-
friendly and aesthetically pleasing setting that attracts both local and regional residents.
As Downtown Dublin continues to develop, the City is committed to investing in Pubic
Art to further carry out the goals of the Downtown Dublin Specific Plan and Dublin
Public Art Master Plan.
The artist budget for the project is expected to be approximately $250,000 and will be
awarded to a single artist. This budget is intended to be inclusive of all costs, including
engineering, site preparation, fabrication, and installation. Detailed specifications and
project scope will be shared with artists selected to develop site specific proposals.
The following materials may be helpful for interested artists:
• City of Dublin Public Art Master Plan
• Downtown Dublin Specific Plan (Includes information on the Village Parkway
District)
• Downtown Dublin Streetscape Plan (Includes information on Village Parkway)
Artwork selection is anticipated to take place in Summer 2024, with design, fabrication,
and installation to follow.

ART SELECTION PROCESS
Staff Review
City Staff, including the Heritage and Cultural Arts Division, Public Works Department,
and contract public art conservator, reviews all applicants. Staff Review evaluates
artistic qualifications and merit; demonstrated ability to create works that are unique,
appropriate to the location, and meaningful to the community; and experience
working successfully with government agencies, engineers, architects and landscape
architects, and project managers. The Staff Review also identifies up to 20 artists, to be
presented to the Project Selection Committee.
Project Selection Committee Review of Artists
The Project Selection Committee made up of five to seven people, including
stakeholders and members of the public, reviews the qualifications of up to 20
qualified artists. The Project Selection Committee narrows the list to no more than five
artists invited to present a proposal for the project. Artists are invited to a site visit and
meet with Staff to ensure an understanding of the project's scope and timeline.
Project Selection Committee Review of Designs
The Project Selection Committee is reconvened to review the submitted designs. Artists
are required to attend this review and present their concepts in detail, as well as
material samples, renderings, and maquettes. The Project Selection Committee will
rank design proposals for the Heritage and Cultural Arts Commission. The Project
Selection Committee may reject any or all designs, and may return to the qualified list
if necessary.
Heritage and Cultural Arts Commission Meeting
The Heritage and Cultural Arts Commission reviews the Project Selection Committee’s
ranked recommendations. The Heritage and Cultural Arts Commission reviews
projects based on whether they meet the goals and criteria identified in the Public Art
Master Plan. Artists are required to attend the Heritage and Cultural Arts Commission
Meeting and are expected to briefly present their concept, materials samples,
renderings and maquette. The Heritage and Cultural Arts Commission will make a final
recommendation to the City Council for approval.
City Council Review
City Council will review the proposed design recommended by the Heritage and
Cultural Arts Commission. The Artist is required to attend the City Council meeting.
The Artist will be notified in advance if City Council requests a presentation. In many
cases, the Artist is present only to answer any questions from the City Council
regarding their proposal. The City Council approves design proposals and artist
contracts.

practicable to do so, considering the facts and circumstances of the Work, the Project, the
Architect, the General Contractor and the Client. City may require Artist to provide medical
certification of any claimed incapacity. In the event Artist is incapacitated such that Artist is
unable to work for a period exceeding a total of 30 days (whether consecutive or
nonconsecutive), City may, at its option, undertake to complete and install the Work in Artist’s
absence, so long as the final Work is substantially similar to that designed by Artist. If City

7. APPROVAL AND FINAL ACCEPTANCE OF WORK. Payment does not imply
acceptance of work. The granting of any payment by City, or the receipt thereof by Artist, shall
in no way lessen the liability of Artist to replace unsatisfactory work, equipment, or materials,
although the unsatisfactory character of such work, equipment or materials may not have been
apparent or detected at the time such payment was made. Materials, equipment, components, or
workmanship that does not conform to the requirements of this Agreement may be rejected by
City and in such case must be replaced by Artist without as soon as possible.
7.1 The granting or withholding of any approval by the City shall be determined by
the City in its sole and reasonable discretion. However, the City shall approve all deliverables if
they materially conform to plans or Contract Documents previously approved by the City. If the

Agreement.

authorize another to execute another work of the same or substantially similar image, design,
dimensions and materials as the Work. Artist may create works that utilize or incorporate various
individual art elements that comprise the Work, so long as the work utilizing or incorporating
such individual elements (1) does not consist predominantly of such elements, (2) is not the same
or substantially similar in image, design, dimensions and materials as the Work, and (3) is not
displayed in an environment that is the same or substantially similar to the environment in which
the Work is to be displayed at the site.
8.2 Warranty of Title. Artist represents and warrants that Artist is the sole author of
the Work and that Artist is the sole owner of any and all copyrights pertaining to the Work.
Artist further represents that the Work is free and clear of any liens and that there are no
outstanding disputes in connection with property rights, intellectual property rights or any other
rights in the Work or any parts of the Work.
8.3 The Artist shall faithfully perform the work required under this Agreement in
accordance with standards of care, skill, training, diligence, and judgment provided by highly
competent professionals who perform work of a similar nature to the Work described in this
Agreement. Artist shall assign only competent personnel to perform services pursuant to this
Agreement. In the event that City, in its sole discretion, at any time during the term of this
Agreement, desires the removal of any such persons, Artist shall, immediately upon receiving
notice from City of such desire of City, cause the removal of such person or persons, unless in
the Artist's sole opinion, the skill or creativity of such person or persons is essential to the
creation of the Work.
8.4 Warranty of Workmanship. The Artist shall guarantee his/her Work to be free
from faults of material and workmanship for a period of one (1) year after installation and Final
Acceptance by the City. The Artist shall deliver the Work to the City free and clear of any liens

entirely that of the Artist or persons responsible to the Artist, as installed, and shall not apply to
materials or workmanship of projects in which the Work of the Artist is integrated or combined,
or to materials purchased, acquired, or installed by a person or entity not responsible to the
Artist.
8.5 Warranty of Public Safety. Artist represents and warrants that the Work will not
pose a danger to public health or safety in view of the possibility of misuse, if such misuse is in a

warrants that:
Attachment 1Attachment 1
24
7
Public Art Agreement
8.6.1 Occasional or minimal cleaning and repair of the Work and any associated
working parts and/or equipment will maintain the Work within an acceptable standard of public
display;
8.6.2 Foreseeable exposure to the elements and general wear and tear will cause
the Work to experience only minor repairable damages and will not cause the Work to fall below
an acceptable standard of public display; and
8.6.3 With general routine cleaning and repair, and within the context of
foreseeable exposure to the elements and general wear and tear, the Work will not experience
irreparable conditions that do not fall within an acceptable standard of public display, including
mold, rust, fracturing, staining, chipping, tearing, abrading and peeling.
8.7 Manufacturer’s Warranties. To the extent the Work incorporates products
covered by a manufacturer’s warranty, Artist shall provide copies of such warranties to City.
9. MAINTENANCE OF WORK
9.1 Unless specifically provided in this Agreement, Artist shall not be responsible for
ongoing maintenance of the Work.
9.2 Artist shall provide the City with a General Maintenance Plan for the Work, with
a detailed description of future anticipated maintenance requirements; a recommended
maintenance schedule; anticipated and required care and/or replacement/upgrade of any part of
the Work and associated moving parts or equipment including any staff time involved in
displaying or operating Work and the frequency of such staff involvement; and written
instructions and manufacturer’s specifications for reasonably foreseeable maintenance and
preservation activities relating to the Work.
9.3 The Work shall be durable, taking into consideration that the installation site is an
unsecured public space that may be exposed to elements such as weather, temperature variation,
and considerable movement of people and equipment. Artist shall ensure that all maintenance
requirements will be reasonable in terms of time and expense.
9.4 Although City strives to maintain the Public Art Collection in good repair and
condition, City is not required by this Agreement to maintain the Work to any particular
standard. City may determine to allow the Work to deteriorate in accordance with the Work’s
temporary life span, if deemed appropriate by City or if City lacks sufficient funds for required
maintenance and/or conservation. If the Work suffers deterioration, City shall have sole
discretion to determine whether to remove the Work from display as a result of deterioration,
whether to replace any portion of the Work or translate any component into new media, or
whether to maintain the Work on display despite its deteriorated condition.
9.5 The anticipated life span of the Work is 25 years from the date of final acceptance
by the City. After that time, the City in its sole discretion may re-evaluate the Work to determine
if it retains its identity as a work of art and, if not, whether to take appropriate action, including
the possibility of destroying the Work. If the City determines that, through decay, vandalism or
Attachment 1Attachment 1
25
8
Public Art Agreement
other forces, the Work has lost its integrity to the point where it should be destroyed, the City
shall first offer the Work to Artist free of charge and in writing.
10. ARTIST’S RIGHTS; CITY’S OWNERSHIP RIGHTS
10.1 Artwork Removal. The Work may be removed from the Site at any time. Artist
acknowledges and understands that the installation of the Work at the Site may subject the Work
to destruction, distortion, mutilation, or other modification due to the acts of the City or third
parties or to its removal, repair, maintenance, storage, or transfer of ownership.
10.2 The City intends to display the Work as originally created by Artist in Exhibit A
and to maintain the Work in good condition. Public artworks commissioned by the City are
sometimes integrated into their site, such that they become an integral, permanent and site-
specific part of a building’s architecture or landscaped environment and removal of the Work
would result in significant changes to the Work and the building’s architecture. City, however,
shall preserve complete flexibility to operate and manage City property in the public’s interest.
Therefore, City retains the absolute right to alter the Work in City’s sole judgment. For example,
City may alter the Work to eliminate hazard, to comply with the Americans with Disabilities
Act, to otherwise aid City in the management of its property and affairs, or through neglect or
accident. If, during or after the term of this Agreement, City finds the Site to be inappropriate,
City has the right to install the Work at an alternate location that City chooses in its sole
discretion. If the Work is free-standing such that it can be removed without significant damage to
the Work or the Site, and if the City authorizes the removal of the Work, the City shall take
reasonable precautions to minimize alteration of the Work during removal.
10.3 With respect to the Work produced under this Agreement, and in consideration of
the procedures and remedies specified in this Agreement, Artist waives any and all claims,
arising at any time and under any circumstances, against City, its officers, agents, employees,
successors and assigns, arising under the federal Visual Artists Rights Act (and 113(d)), the
California Art Preservation Act (Cal. Civil Code §§987 et seq.), and any other local, state,
federal, or international laws that convey rights of the same nature as those conveyed under 17
U.S.C. §106A, Cal. Civil Code §§987 et seq., or any other type of moral right protecting the
integrity of works of art. If the Work is incorporated into a building such that the Work cannot be
removed from the building without alteration of the Work, Artist waives any and all such claims
against any future owners of the site, and its agents, officers and employees, for alteration of the
Work. Artist shall provide City with aforementioned waivers prior to the commencement of
work.
10.4 If City intends to take any action with respect to the site or the Work that would
alter the Work, other than routine cleaning and maintenance, the following procedures shall
apply:
10.4.1 Notice. Where time permits, City shall make reasonable good faith efforts
to notify Artist at least twenty (20) calendar days prior to authorizing any alteration of the Work,
at the last phone number or address provided by Artist to the City’s Contract Administrator.
Where time does not permit prior to alteration of the Work – for example, in cases of public
Attachment 1Attachment 1
26
9
Public Art Agreement
hazard, accident or unauthorized alteration – City shall notify Artist within thirty (30) calendar
days after such alteration.
10.4.2 Consultation. After receiving such notice, Artist shall consult with City to
determine whether the Work can be restored or relocated, and to attempt to come to a mutually
agreeable plan for disposition of the Work. Such consultation shall be without charge by Artist
unless otherwise specifically agreed in writing. If City intends to remove the Work, Artist shall
consult regarding methods to minimize or repair any Alteration to the Work caused by such
removal and the potential costs of such removal.
10.4.3 Restoration. If the Work is altered, with or without prior notice to Artist,
and City intends to maintain the Work on display, City shall make a reasonable good faith effort
to engage Artist in the restoration of the Work and to compensate Artist for Artist’s time and
efforts at fair market value, which may be the subject of a future Agreement between Artist and
City. However, City has no obligation under this Agreement to restore the Work to its original
condition, to compensate Artist for any restoration work, or to maintain the Work on display. If
Artist fails or refuses to negotiate with City in good faith with respect to any restoration, City
may contract with any other qualified art conservator or artist for such restoration. During
Artist’s lifetime, City shall make best efforts not to display or de-accession only a portion of the
Work without Artist’s consent.
10.4.4 Removal by Artist. Where time permits, if City intends to take action that
will destroy or significantly alter the Work, such as destruction of all or part of the site, and City
determines that it will not remove the Work itself, City shall allow Artist to remove the Work at
Artist’s expense within 60 days of notice from the City of the need to remove the Work, in which
case title shall revert to Artist. If Artist fails to remove the Work within that 60 day period, City
may alter the Work in any manner, including destroying it, in City’s sole discretion.
10.4.5 Remedies. If City breaches any of its obligations under this Section,
Artist’s remedies shall be limited as follows: If City inadvertently fails to provide a required
prior notice of alteration, City will provide notice as soon as it discovers the omission, and before
alteration of the Work if that remains possible. If City alters the Work without providing Artist a
required prior notice of alteration, Artist shall be given the first right of refusal to restore the
Work at the same location and City shall make reasonable efforts to provide funding for the
restoration. If City funds cannot be made available after reasonable efforts are made to secure
such funding, Artist may, but is not obligated to, restore the Work at Artist’s expense. If Artist
elects not to restore the Work, City may retain another artist or conservator to restore it, or may
Alter the Work in any manner, at City’s sole discretion.
10.5 If City alters the Work without Artist’s consent in a manner that is prejudicial to
Artist’s reputation, Artist retains the right to disclaim authorship of the Work in accordance with
California Civil Code §987(d) and 17 U.S.C. §106A(a)(2).
10.6 Except as provided in this Agreement, with respect to third parties who are not
officers, employees, agents, successors or assigns of City, Artist retains Artist’s moral rights in
the Work, as established in the Visual Artists Rights Act (17 U.S.C. §§106A and 113(d)), the
California Art Preservation Act (Cal. Civil Code §§987 and 989), or any other local, state,
Attachment 1Attachment 1
27
10
Public Art Agreement
federal or international moral rights laws that protect the integrity of works of art. Accordingly,
nothing herein shall prevent Artist from pursuing a claim for alteration of the Work against a
third party who is not an officer, employee, agent, successor or assign of City. City has no
obligation to pursue claims against third parties to remedy or prevent alteration of the Work.
However, as owner of the Work, City may pursue claims against third parties for damages or to
restore the Work if the Work has been altered without City’s authorization.
11. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY AND PUBLICITY RIGHTS

California Civil Code §986 or any other law requiring the payment of resale royalties. If City
sells the Work as an individual piece, separate from or itemized as part of a real property
transaction, City shall pay to Artist a resale royalty to the extent required by law, based upon the
sale price of the Work.

City and its officials, officers, employees, agents, and volunteers from and against any and all
losses, liability, claims, suits, actions, damages, and causes of action arising out of any personal
injury, bodily injury, loss of life, or damage to property, or any violation of any federal, state, or
municipal law or ordinance, to the extent caused, in whole or in part, by the willful misconduct
or negligent acts or omissions of Artist or its employees, subcontractors, or agents, by acts for
Attachment 1Attachment 1
32
15
Public Art Agreement
which they could be held strictly liable, or by the quality or character of their work. The
foregoing obligation of Artist shall not apply when (1) the injury, loss of life, damage to
property, or violation of law arises wholly from the negligence or willful misconduct of the City
or its officers, employees, agents, or volunteers and (2) the actions of Artist or its employees,
subcontractor, or agents have contributed in no part to the injury, loss of life, damage to property,
or violation of law. It is understood that the duty of Artist to indemnify and hold harmless
includes the duty to defend as set forth in Section 2778 of the California Civil Code. Acceptance
by City of insurance certificates and endorsements required under this Agreement does not
relieve Artist from liability under this indemnification and hold harmless clause. This
indemnification and hold harmless clause shall apply to any damages or claims for damages
whether or not such insurance policies are determined to apply. By execution of this Agreement,
Artist acknowledges and agrees to the provisions of this Section and that it is a material element
of consideration.
In the event that Artist or any employee, agent, or subcontractor of Artist providing
services under this Agreement is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or the
California Public Employees Retirement System (“PERS”) to be eligible for enrollment in PERS
as an employee of City, Artist shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless City for the payment
of any employee and/or employer contributions for PERS benefits on behalf of Artist or its
employees, agents, or subcontractors, as well as for the payment of any penalties and interest on
such contributions, which would otherwise be the responsibility of City.
15. STATUS OF ARTIST AS INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR
15.1 Independent Contractor. At all times during the term of this Agreement, Artist
shall be an independent contractor and shall not be an employee of City. City shall have the
right to control Artist only insofar as the results of Artist's services rendered pursuant to this
Agreement and the assignment of personnel. Otherwise City shall not have the right to control
the means by which Artist accomplishes services rendered pursuant to this Agreement.
Notwithstanding any other city, state, or federal policy, rule, regulation, law, or ordinance to the
contrary, Artist and any of its employees, agents, and subcontractors providing services under
this Agreement shall not qualify for or become entitled to, and hereby agree to waive any and all
claims to, any compensation, benefit, or any incident of employment by City, including but not
limited to eligibility to enroll in the California Public Employees Retirement System (PERS) as
an employee of City and entitlement to any contribution to be paid by City for employer
contributions and/or employee contributions for PERS benefits.
15.2 Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as limiting the right of
Artist to engage in his/her profession separate and apart from this Agreement so long as such
activities do not interfere with the performance by Artist of his/her obligations as set forth in this
Agreement.
15.3 Artist is not an Agent. Except as City may specify in writing, Artist shall have no
authority, express or implied, to act on behalf of City in any capacity whatsoever as an agent.
Artist shall have no authority, express or implied, pursuant to this Agreement to bind City to any
obligation whatsoever.

16.2 Compliance with Applicable Laws. Artist and any subcontractors shall comply
with all laws applicable to the performance of the work hereunder.
16.3 Other Governmental Regulations. To the extent that this Agreement may be
funded by fiscal assistance from another governmental entity, Artist and any subcontractors shall
comply with all applicable rules and regulations to which City is bound by the terms of such
fiscal assistance program.
16.4 Licenses and Permits. Artist represents and warrants to City that Artist and its
employees, agents, and any subcontractors have all licenses, permits, qualifications, and
approvals of whatsoever nature that are legally required to practice their respective professions.
Artist represents and warrants to City that Artist and its employees, agents, any subcontractors
shall, at their sole cost and expense, keep in effect at all times during the term of this Agreement
any licenses, permits, and approvals that are legally required to practice their respective
professions. In addition to the foregoing, Artist and any subcontractors shall obtain and maintain
during the term of this Agreement valid Business Licenses from City.
16.5 Nondiscrimination and Equal Opportunity. Artist shall not discriminate, on the
basis of a person’s race, religion, color, national origin, age, physical or mental handicap or
disability, medical condition, marital status, sex, or sexual orientation, against any employee,
applicant for employment, subcontractor, bidder for a subcontract, or participant in, recipient of,
or applicant for any services or programs provided by Artist under this Agreement. Artist shall
comply with all applicable federal, state, and local laws, policies, rules, and requirements related
to equal opportunity and nondiscrimination in employment, contracting, and the provision of any
services that are the subject of this Agreement, including but not limited to the satisfaction of any
positive obligations required of Artist thereby.
16.6 Prevailing Wage. This Agreement may be subject to prevailing wage.
Where applicable, if Artist’s work involves fabrication and/or installation at the Site,
without limitation of any other provision of this of the Agreement, Artist must pay or cause to be
paid, prevailing wages for all work done under this Agreement as required by California law. All
subcontractors hired by Artist in relation to this Agreement must be registered, pursuant to
Section 1725.5 of the California Labor Code. Where applicable, this project may be subject to
compliance monitoring and enforcement by the Department of Industrial Relations (“DIR”).
Where applicable, in the performance of the Agreement, employees of Artist and all
subcontractors, engaged by the Artist carrying out covered work shall be responsible for
compliance with California Labor Code Sections 1776 (payroll records, retention, inspection,
noncompliance penalties, rules, and regulations) and 1777.5 (employment of registered
apprentices, wages, standards, number, apprenticeship or trade, exemptions, and contributions),
and submit weekly for each week in which any contract work is performed a certified copy of all
payrolls for its employees and a certified copy of all its subcontractor’s payrolls directly to the
California Labor Commissioner, DIR, and the City within one week following week when work
Attachment 1Attachment 1
34
17
Public Art Agreement
is performed. Payrolls shall conform to the requirements of the Labor Code Section 1776 and
shall be in the form acceptable to the City.
Pursuant to appropriate sections of the Labor Code of the State of California, the Director
of the DIR has ascertained the general prevailing rate of wages (which rate includes employer
payments for health and welfare, vacation, pension, and similar purposes) applicable to the work
provided by covered contractors for straight time, overtime, Saturday, Sunday and holiday work.
Where applicable, Artist shall post a copy of the prevailing wage rates at the Site or material
staging area.
Workers employed in work covered by prevailing wage must be paid at the rates at least
equal to the prevailing wage rates as adopted. If Artist uses a craft or classification not shown on
the prevailing wage determinations, Artist may be required to pay the wage rate of that craft or
classification most closely related to it as shown in the general determinations effective at the
time of award of this Agreement. Failure to pay such prevailing wages shall subject the employer
to the penalties set forth in Labor Code Section 1775.
If Artist requires the use of employees and/or subcontractors in order to perform any
work related to the Artist’s Services, Artist will contact the City to set up a meeting to discuss
the following: project registration with DIR, certified payroll upload into California DIR eCPR,
and submission of statement of compliance with monthly invoice
17. TERMINATION AND MODIFICATION
17.1 Termination. City may cancel this Agreement at any time and without cause upon
written notification to Artist.
Artist may cancel this Agreement upon thirty (30) days’ written notice to City and shall
include in such notice the reasons for cancellation.
In the event of termination, Artist shall be entitled to compensation for services
performed to the effective date of termination; City, however, may condition payment of such
compensation upon Artist delivering to City any or all documents, photographs, computer
software, video and audio tapes, and other materials provided to Artist or prepared by or for
Artist or the City in connection with this Agreement.
17.2 Extension. City may, in its sole and exclusive discretion, extend the end date of
this Agreement beyond that provided for in Subsection 1.1. Any such extension shall require a
written amendment to this Agreement, as provided for herein. Artist understands and agrees
that, if City grants such an extension, City shall have no obligation to provide Artist with
compensation beyond the maximum amount provided for in this Agreement. Similarly, unless
authorized by the Contract Administrator, City shall have no obligation to reimburse Artist for
any otherwise reimbursable expenses incurred during the extension period.

Agreement contemplates personal performance by Artist and is based upon a determination of
Artist’s unique personal competence, experience, and specialized personal knowledge.
Moreover, a substantial inducement to City for entering into this Agreement was and is the
professional reputation and competence of Artist. Artist may not assign this Agreement or any
interest therein without the prior written approval of the Contract Administrator. Artist shall not
subcontract any portion of the performance contemplated and provided for herein, other than to

photographs, memoranda, plans, studies, specifications, records, files, or any other documents or
materials, in electronic or any other form, that Artist prepares or obtains pursuant to this
Agreement and that relate to the matters covered hereunder shall be the property of the City.

account, invoices, vouchers, canceled checks, and other records or documents evidencing or

void and Artist will not be entitled to any compensation for services performed pursuant to this
Agreement, including reimbursement of expenses, and Artist will be required to reimburse the
City for any sums paid to the Artist. Artist understands that, in addition to the foregoing, it may
