CITY OF DUBLIN
AGENDA STATEMENT
CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: September 10, 1990
SUBJECT: Dublin Fine Arts Foundation (DFA) Loaned Art Program
(Prepared by: Paul S. Rankin, Assistant City Manager)
EXHIBITS ATTACHED: Exhibit 1 : Letter dated August 29, 1990 from Lynne
Baer, Executive Director
Exhibit 2: Resume of Bruce Beasley, Sculptor
Exhibit 3: Site Plan Showing the Approximate Location
Exhibit 4: Proposed Agreement
RECOMMENDATION: Determine whether it is appropriate for the City to
assume risks associated with the display. If
appropriate, authorize the Mayor to execute the
agreement and direct staff to work with DFA to complete
the installation.
FINANCIAL STATEMENT: DFA will pay all direct costs. The City would
assume insurance costs in the event of a loss
associated with the display. Some additional lawn
maintenance expense will be incurred by the City.
DESCRIPTION: At the City Council meeting on February 26, 1990, the
City Council granted conceptual approval of the efforts by Dublin Fine Arts
Foundation (DFA) to develop a "Sculpture Park" with loaned works of art.
DFA has obtained funding and has requested authorization to proceed with
the first piece of artwork.
An agreement has been drafted which will provide for a one year loan of a
large scale sculpture. DFA is also arranging to have the artist available
for a community forum. The incorporation of educational elements along
with the display of artwork has become a major goal of the Foundation.
The loan agreement provides for a one year display, which can be extended
upon approval of all parties. The Artist does have the ability to remove
the artwork prior to the end of the one year loan period in the event the
sculpture is sold. The City Attorney's Office has termed the agreement as
a consignment. The agreement includes provisions that DFA would receive a
15% commission in the event the sculpture is sold. This provision provides
a method for the City to indirectly support the activities of DFA in the
event a sale occurs.
DFA has reviewed with the Artist the placement of the sculpture. It is
proposed to locate the work in a grass area along Dublin Boulevard. The
general location is west of the large fountain. Due to the scale of the
sculpture, it needs to be set away from the fountain in order to avoid a
sense of "clutter. " The agreement requires that the installation be
coordinated with the Public Works Department. The artist would determine
the precise location as the sculpture is installed.
The maintenance of the turf area beneath the sculpture will also need to be
carefully reviewed. Due to clearance limitations, the area will not be
able to be mowed with larger equipment. The Public Works Director will
need to work with the City's Maintenance Contractor (MCE) to evaluate
feasible methods of maintaining the turf. This may require additional
maintenance costs.
In addition to any additional maintenance costs, DFA has requested that the
City assume responsibility for insurance costs. Staff has worked with the

ITEM NO. +
City's Insurance provider to assess the implications of this arrangement.
Two areas of insurance are involved: liability insurance through the City's
self-insured pool (ABAG PLAN) ; and property insurance which is a group
purchase of a commercial policy.
The City participates in ABAG PLAN for general liability coverage. The
City carries a $25, 000 deductible and annual premiums are based in .part on
losses incurred within the previous five years. The ABAG PLAN Risk Manager
has advised that coverage would be provided in the event of a claim
associated with the display on City property. The issue becomes a policy
decision given the significant deductible which would be at risk in the
event of a claim.
Staff reviewed the circumstances with the ABAG PLAN Risk Manager and it is
believed that the display would not present any significant risk. The
sculpture has been on display previously in a public plaza at the San
Francisco Civic Center. The sculpture will also be located some distance
from the Dublin Sports Grounds, which should avoid the potential for it to
be used as a play structure. It is not possible to provide a guarantee
that a claim would not occur, however, the City should be capable of
providing adequate provisions to limit the exposure.
The City purchases its property insurance under a group policy arranged by
ABAG PLAN. The group policy includes $100, 000 coverage per occurrence for
losses involving fine arts. The City has a $5, 000 deductible under the
policy. Once again, Staff has reviewed the potential for a loss with the
ABAG PLAN Risk Manager.
The sculpture is constructed of stainless steel panels welded together.
The potential for damage would most likely result from vandalism or
potentially an automobile accident where a vehicle runs onto the lawn area.
The amount of coverage is limited and again the City's exposure with a
$5, 000 deductible is significant. The overall decision becomes one of
policy for the City Council.
Representatives of DFA will be in attendance to provide slides of the
artwork and the proposed location. Overall, the project allows for the
display of a large scale sculpture by an accomplished artist. Exhibit 2
identifies Bruce Beasley's background and exhibitions. In addition, DFA
will be arranging for an educational seminar presented by Mr. Beasley.
Staff recommends that the City Council consider the proposal and if
appropriate, authorize the Mayor to execute the agreement.
