Strategic Plan Objective The continued exhibition of quality public art is in line with the Tourism and Marketing element of the City's Envision Palm Desert Strategic Plan. Specifically, the artwork installation contributes to: Priority 1: Improve access to Palm Desert and its attractions to enhance the ease of lifestyle. Background On November 15, 2012, City Council approved a two year, temporary loan of the Large Steel Root by Steve Tobin from the artist and Melissa Morgan Fine Art. Subsequent to the approval of the loan, the sculpture was installed in the Civic Center and has been well received by the public. The temporary exhibition period, as per the initial contract, was December 17, 2012 — December 17, 2014. Due to the positive response to the sculpture, on January 22, 2015 staff retuned to City Council for an approval to amend the contract to extend the exhibition period for one year. Subsequently, on September 22, 2016 City Council approved a second extension to the temporary loan period through December 31, 2017. The second amendment to the contract has expired and staff is seeking a third amendment to extend the loan through December 31 , 2019. Staff Report Large Steel Root Amendment No. 3 Page 2 of 2 October 26, 2017 Melissa Morgan Fine Art and Steve Tobin have indicated that they are also in favor of the exhibition extension. v•s $- .
