REQUEST: APPOINTMENT OF ARLENE AMICK TO THE MARKETING
COMMITTEE TO FULFILL THE COMMITMENT WITHIN THE
LEASE AGREEMENT WITH PALM SPRINGS ART MUSEUM
SUBMITTED BY: Donna Gomez, Visitor Center Manager
DATE: January 12, 2012
CONTENTS: Completed Committee/Commission Application
Lease Agreement — Section 2.3
Recommendation
By Minute Motion: appoint Arlene Amick of the Palm Springs Art Museum in
Palm Desert to a four-year term on the City of Palm Desert's Marketing
Committee.
Background
On June 10, 2010, the Palm Desert City Council approved the execution of a lease
agreement with the Palm Springs Art Museum. That document provided an opportunity
for the Art Museum to nominate a representative to serve on the City's Marketing
Committee. The following language is noted in Section 2.3 of said agreement:
"Lessee shall have the right to nominate representatives for one seat on Lessor's
City Marketing Committee and one seat on Lessor's Art in Public Places
Commission during the initial and any extended term(s) hereof. Appointment of
nominees to the commissions shall be at sole discretion of Lessor's City
Council."
The Palm Springs Art Museum in Palm Desert is slated for a Spring 2012 opening. Ms.
Arlene Amick was recently named General Manager of the Palm Desert facility and the
Art Museum has requested that she be considered for appointment to the City's
Marketing Committee.
Ms. Amick has been a Palm Desert resident since 2002. Her experience with the local
art community and her serving as the General Manager of the Palm Springs Art
Museum in Palm Desert will provide for a strong contribution to the City's marketing
efforts. With this appointment the Committee will meet its by-laws requirement of ten
voting members.

Lessee has made such investigation as it deems necessary with reference to such matters and
assumes all responsibility therefor. In addition, Lessee hereby expressly acknowledges that
Lessee has had full opportunity to inspect the Premises (including, without limitation the
presence/absence of hazardous materials, the condition of fixtures and equipment, and whether
the improvements comply with law). Lessor hereby agrees to make any changes to the Premises
