STAFF REPORT
CITY COUNCIL
DATE: December 20, 2016
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers
FROM:
Christopher L. Foss, City Manager
SUBJECT:
Agreement with SF Art Conservation for Repairs and Maintenance of the
City's Public Art Collection
Prepared by: Tegan McLane, Cultural Arts and Heritage Manager
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The City Council will consider approval of an agreement with SF Art Conservation for
repairs and maintenance of public artwork in the City's permanent public art collection.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt the Resolution Approving a Public Art Repair and Maintenance Agreement with
SF Art Conservation.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The Agreement amount is for $90,000 through the remainder of this Fiscal Year.
Funding for maintenance was included in this year's Operating Budget.
DESCRIPTION:
The City of Dublin has a robust public art collection consisting of more than 30 pieces,
mostly outdoor sculpture, murals and tile works acquired in the last 20 years. A review
by a art conservator in spring 2015 estimated the combined value at $3.17 million.
The review also indicated approximately $134,000 worth of deferred maintenance and
repairs were needed, as most of the pieces have had no maintenance since their
acquisition.
Commonly accepted best practice for public art collections is to conduct routine
maintenance on a planned schedule and have the artist or a trained art conservator
make repairs as needed for vandalism, accidents and weather-related decay.
Developing a formal public art maintenance plan was added to the Staff's work plan in
2015. Following City Council's authorization this spring of a transfer from the Public Art
Page 2 of 2
Fund to the Public Art Maintenance budget for this purpose, Staff issued a Request for
Proposals for Public Art Repair and Maintenance.
Five proposals were received. Proposals were reviewed by the Director of Parks and
Community Services and the Cultural Arts and Heritage Manager. The top three firms
were interviewed by phone. As there was one firm that was clearly better-suited to
deliver all the desired service within Dublin's price range, that firm was invited to further
discuss the project.
SF Art Conservation, located in San Francisco, has a team of conservators and
conservation technicians currently m aintaining collections for the San Francisco Arts
Commission, City of Pleasanton and private collections including the Doris and Donald
Fisher Collection and the Anderson Collection at Stanford. The firm also regularly works
with SFMOMA, Berkeley Art Museum and California Academy of Sciences.
References were excellent, and Staff is particularly pleased that the firm is near enough
to respond quickly to vandalism and other emergencies.
SF Art Conservation was offered a "trial job," removing substantial hard water deposits
from the Emerald Glen Fountain artwork in preparation for turning the water back on
after the drought restrictions where lifted. The work was completed on time, within
budget, and the team interfaced well with MCE and demonstrated excel lent
communication with Staff throughout the project.
SF Art Conservation and the City's Cultural Arts and Heritage Manager will jointly
prioritize the needed repairs, and work will begin in January, with a goal of
accomplishing as much of the work as budget and weather will allow by June.
The not-to-exceed amount is $90,000. Attachment 1 is a Resolution Approving the
Agreement with SF Art Conservation. Attachment 2 is the Agreement, including scope
of work and fee schedule.
NOTICING REQUIREMENTS/PUBLIC OUTREACH:
None.

program meets the standards of the Labor Code shall be solely in the discretion of the Contract
Administrator. The insurer, if insurance is provided, or the Contractor, if a program of self-insurance
is provided, shall waive all rights of subrogation against the City and its officers, officials,
employees, and volunteers for loss arising from work performed under this Agreement.

written contract or agreement) before City’s own insurance or self-insurance shall be
called upon to protect City as a named insured.

section is reduced, limited, or materially affected in any other manner, Contractor shall
