19. Provide documentation of site approval. A contract or agreement with the owner <br />(governmental unit/private property owner) granting permission and indicating the duration <br />of the project. • Site Approval [upload box] <br />As the City of Elk River and its subsidiaries are the applicant as well as the site <br />owner, no further agreement is needed. Internal communication along with <br />approval of the pursuit of public art installation by the Multipurpose Facility <br />Commission should satisfy this requirement. <br /> <br />20. What is the estimated lifespan of the work? List or estimate the duration of time before <br />“permanent” works will require major maintenance or repairs. For temporary public art 1 <br />year or less, describe how the art will be documented and shared. <br />“Where Energy Flows” is a permanent piece of work that would only require <br />wiping off dust and fingerprints every few years with a soft cloth and glass <br />cleaner. <br /> <br />21. Publicity and/or Marketing Efforts - Explain how this public art project will be <br />promoted/documented. (i.e. ads, flyers, news releases, videos, YouTube, etc.) <br />The city multimedia team is excited to partner with the artist as well as the <br />Beautification and Public Art Committee to produce a high-quality video that will <br />highlight the creation process and the committee backing of the project. The <br />local newspaper, the Star News, has already shown interest in covering the artist <br />and project. The city social media accounts will produce several posts garnering <br />online attention. In addition, the city will market and hold a reveal with the artist <br />and elected officials to publicly welcome the project to Furniture and Things <br />Community Event Center. <br /> <br />22. Measurable Outcomes - Once the public art project is complete, what are the expected <br />specific measurable outcomes? Explain what success will look like, what will change, what <br />learning may take place, etc. <br />Once complete, the City would expect to see increased engagement and <br />conversation regarding public art in the community in general, and “Where <br />Energy Flows” specifically. <br />Additionally, we would work with the Elk River Star News to ensure a positive <br />article is published on the new piece of art in the community. <br />Finally, by adding Google Map pins for this and other public art, we can view and <br />respond to public reviews, as well as increase visibility of the pieces.
