REQUEST: CONSIDERATION TO REIMBURSE THE FOUNTAINS AT
CARLOTTA FOR ITS ART IN PUBLIC PLACES FEE IN
THE AMOUNT OF $18,957.50
SUBMITTED BY: Richard L. Twedt
APPLICANT: Fountains at Carlotta
41-505 Carlotta, Palm Desert, CA 92260
DATE: November 10, 2005
CONTENTS: 1. Photograph of installed sculpture and landscaped
2. Copies of invoices
Recommendation:
By Minute Motion:
Approve the reimbursement of the Art in Public Places fee in the amount of
$18,957.50 to the Fountains at Carlotta located at 41-505 Carlotta, Palm Desert,
California 92260. Funds are available in account #436-0000-228-9900.
Executive Summary:
The Fountains at Carlotta has paid into the Art in Public Places fund $20,800.
These fees were collected for the 65 new private residences that were built over
the past year. The Fountains at Carlotta used $18,957.50 of those funds to
purchase the John Kennedy bronze sculpture entitled "Friendship Bench" from
the CODA Gallery in Palm Desert. The sculpture was installed to the left of the
front entrance of the development. Staff commends the Fountains at Carlotta for
its sensitive method of installing the artwork, which has very attractive
landscaping around it with sandstone stepping -stones leading to the bench to
enable residents of the Fountains access the bench to sit and visit with friends.
Discussion:
Staff has worked with the Fountains at Carlotta for approximately twelve months
with developing its public art component. Initially, they wanted the artwork to be
installed inside of the complex of the senior citizen's residential development, but
they were informed that would not comply with the requirements of the public art
ordinance. Recently, they formed a committee of residents and the property
manager to select an artwork for the entrance to the development. They chose
the John Kennedy bronze sculpture titled: "Friendship Bench". They believe it
reflects the essence of their neighborhood, which is happiness and peacefulness.
Council approved the sculpture at its meeting of August 25, 2005.
Mr. Kennedy is a nationally recognized sculptor who lived in Palm Springs,
California for many years and recently passed away. A few of Mr. Kennedy's
most important commissions are the "Spirit of Audrey" in honor of Audrey
Hepburn, installed at the New York headquarters of UNICEF, and a permanent
piece at the Barbara Sinatra Children's Center in Rancho Mirage, California.
