6. Unfinished Business
6.1. Adirondack Chair Temporary Art Display Program Art Selection
Tyler Phillips, Recreation Coordinator presented the specifics of the item as
outlined in the Staff Report.
Cm. Blackburn opened the floor for discussion.
Cm. Wolski and Cm. Alternate Agrawal submitted entries for the Temporary Art
Display Program and recused themselves from the Commission voting.
Mr. Phillips also added that an artist submitted a design proposal right after the
deadline, so they did not make it into the Staff Report on time, however the entry
was added in the presentation for tonight's meeting.
Cm. Blackburn asked if it was necessary to review each design proposal during
the meeting again since the Commissioners have had enough time prior to the
meeting to review the items. The Commissioners agreed that it was not
necessary to go through each item again at the meeting.
On a motion by Cm. Vonheeder-Leopold and seconded by Cm. Minniear the
Commissioners voted and selected 20 design proposal entries for the Adirondack
Chair Temporary Art Display Program for recommendation to the City Council.

Shaun Chilkotowsky, Heritage & Cultural Arts Manager introduced Dawn Merkes
from Group 4 Architecture Research and Planning, Inc. who presented the
specifics of the item as outlined in the Staff Report.
Cm. Blackburn opened the floor for questions.
The Commissioners asked how the different room sizes were decided, if the
current Police Services parking lot will also be a public space for the Cultural Arts
Center, and if the current work plan encompasses adequate storage space.
Ms. Merkes responded that the room space and size dimensions are based on
viability in terms of program revenue, and that is set on the number of projected
occupants. She also shared that the blueprints account for a storage section in
each room.
Ms. Butler responded that the current scope of work for the Cultural Arts Center
does not include the Police Services parking lot due to transportation and public
safety concerns in that area, and this falls under the jurisdiction of local
transportation agencies and the Public Works Department.
Cm. Blackburn opened the floor for public comment.
Carolyn Lord, Livermore resident gave a public comment about the classroom
square footage, programming, and lighting.
Vanessa Thomas from the Dublin Art Collective gave a public comment about
the storage space and the visual art space.
Cm. Blackburn closed the floor for public comment.
The Commission discussed the preliminary floor plans, design values, lobby
space, locations of restrooms, and interchangeability of the room spaces.
ACTION:
The Commission received the report and provided input.
8. Other Business
None.
