FINANCIAL STATEMENT: $250,000 has been deposited into the City's Public Art Fund from
the Alameda County Surplus Property Authority for the Dublin
Transit Center Public Art Project. The proposed fee for services
under the Agreement is $15,000. There are sufficient funds within the
Transit Center CIP to execute the Agreement.
DESCRIPTION: As part of the Fiscal Year 2008-2009 Goals & Objectives, the City
Council rated as a high priority goal: work with the developer to locate significant works of art in two key
places of the Dublin Transit Center, the Campbell Green and the Iron Horse Plaza.
In May 2003, the Alameda County Surplus Property Authority (ACSPA) entered into a Development
Agreement with the City of Dublin for the Dublin Transit Center Project. As part of the agreement, the
Developer agreed to contribute Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) for construction of
public art. The focused area for the artwork at that time was to include the Village Green (now called
Campbell Green) and the BART plaza.
In January 2005, Staff brought two artist proposals to the City Council for consideration. However, the
Council decided to defer the public art project until a later date, when the development project had
reached 25% occupancy.
The Dublin Transit Center Project has now exceeded the 25% occupancy goal and Staff wishes to proceed
with the public art project by entering into an agreement with a professional Art Consultant. Staff

distributed a Request for Qualifications to ten Art Consultants in the Bay Area and five proposals were
received. Based on the interviews and submittals, Staff recommends entering into an agreement with Art
Consultant Chandra Cerrito. Ms. Cerrito has been working as an Art Consultant for close to a decade. She
has completed dozens of public art projects for both Private Developers and Municipalities, including the
cities of San Francisco, Chico, Pino1e, Napa and Peta1uma. She holds a degree in Bachelor of Arts, Art
History from Princeton University and a Master of Fine Arts from the California College of Arts & Crafts.
She is proficient in public art placement, artist solicitation, selection processes, city approvals and art
commissioning, delivery and installation.
The scope of work for professional services will include:
· meetings with Staff to develop goals, time1ines, budgets;
· determine recommended types of artwork and art locations;
· develop a solicitation process for artists and a selection process to guide a selection panel
· coordinate with the Community Development & Public Works Departments for the completion and
installation of the artwork.
The complete detail of the professional services is listed as Exhibit A in the attached Consultant Services
Agreement. Ms. Cerrito's fee for services is $15,000; sufficient funds have been included in the project
budget for this expense.
An additional step in the initial process is for the Dublin Transit Center project to go through the public
art selection process as part of the first phase of design. Under the guidelines for City Projects, the Public
Art Master Plan suggests that Artist Selection Panels be formed as ad-hoc committees for a limited period
of time to recommend artists for individual City projects or groups of projects. One-half of the panel
should be Dublin residents. It also suggests that the panel be comprised of:
1. One or more representatives from the Heritage and Cultural Arts Commission.
2. One or more panelists who are professional artists, architects, or landscape architects with
experience in public art.
3. Individuals who are community leaders, business owners, residents, gallery owners and art
educators.
Based on the above guidelines, Staff recommends that an Art Selection Committee be formed for the
Dublin Transit Center Public Art Project comprised of seven voting members and one non-voting member
as follows:
V oting Members
. One representative from the Heritage and Cultural Arts Commission (one alternate)
. One representative from the Alameda County Surplus Property Authority
. One representative from Avalon Bay Communities
. One arts professional
· Three members from the community (preferably residents within the Transit Center community)
Non-Voting Members
. Heritage & Cultural Arts Manager
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the Resolution
approving the Agreement (Attachment 1) and approve formation of an Art Selection Committee
authorizing Staff to solicit representatives.

Section 5. INDEMNIFICATION AND CONSULTANT'S RESPONSIBILITIES. Consultant shall
indemnify, defend with counsel selected by the City, and hold harmless the 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 Consultant or its employees,
subcontractors, or agents, by acts for which they could be held strictly liable, or by the quality or character
of their work. The foregoing obligation of Consultant 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 Consultant 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 Consultant 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 Consultant 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 shall have been
determined to apply. By execution of this Agreement, Consultant acknowledges and agrees to the
provisions of this Section and that it is a material element of consideration.
In the event that Consultant or any employee, agent, or subcontractor of Consultant 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, Consultant shall
indemnify, defend, and hold harmless City for the payment of any employee and/or employer contributions
for PERS benefits on behalf of Consultant 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.
Section 6.
6.1
STATUS OF CONSULTANT.
Independent Contractor. At all times during the term of this Agreement, Consultant shall
be an independent contractor and shall not be an employee of City. City shall have the
right to control Consultant only insofar as the results of Consultant's services rendered
pursuant to this Agreement and assignment of personnel pursuant to Subparagraph 1.3;
however, otherwise City shall not have the right to control the means by which Consultant
accomplishes services rendered pursuant to this Agreement. Notwithstanding any other
City, state, or federal policy, rule, regulation, law, or ordinance to the contrary, Consultant
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.
