By Minute Motion: Approve "Desert Bloom" by Greg Reiche at a cost of $20,000 as
the public art component for the Desert Willow Golf Resort expans�on. Funds are

Commission Recommendation
At its meeting of April 21, 2010, the Art in Public Places Commission unanimously approved
"Desert Bloom" as the public art component for the Desert Willow Golf Resort expansion.
Backqround
The City is expanding the kitchen and patio area at Desert Willow Golf Resort. The Art in
Public Places Commission is recommending purchasing "Desert Bloom" currently in the
2009/2010 EI Paseo Invitational Exhibition to be placed at the secondary entrance to Desert
Willow (see site plan for location). The secondary entrance will be a location for expanded
rental opportunities, including weddings and other types of functions. In addition to being
visible to people who are entering through or utilizing the secondary access area, it will also be
visible for those driving into the parking lot. The proposed location may be altered slightly if
there are any ADA sidewalk issues.
"Desert Bloom" is valued at $40,000, but the artist has offered it to the City at a reduced price
of $20,000, inclusive of taxes.
