RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council adopt a resolution approving the water tank
artwork and appropriating funds in accordance with the
recommendation shown below.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The City has contracted with Redwood Painting Company, of
Pittsburg, to paint the exterior of the City's elevated water tank
located at 122 North Main Street. Part of the painting contract is for
the contractor to apply two logos on the exterior surface of the tank
related to the Lodi Centennial celebration in 2006.
On March 21, 2006, the Public Art Advisory Board selected the artwork from seven submittals. The
selected artwork was submitted by Rick Cardinio, Jr., of Lodi. The artwork was selected based on artistic
look, appropriate theme for the City of Lodi, and ease of application. The estimated cost of the artwork,
as of April 20, 2006, is $30,000 ($14,000 for color bands, estimated $6,000 for the three vinyl logos,
estimated $6,150 for the vinyl logo application, and $3,750 for the artist work). The artwork will be a
combination of paint and self -adhering vinyl and will be applied at three symmetrical locations around the
water tank.
The original bid of $9,000 in the contract with Redwood Painting Company was for a typical two-color
logo. Since the final artwork is more complicated than a typical logo, staff feels the quote for the artwork
application is reasonable.
FISCAL MIPACT: The expected service life of the artwork is ten years, whereas the tank
coating should last approximately ten to fifteen years. Therefore, the City
should anticipate similar costs associated with maintaining the tank surface
every ten to fifteen years.

The original bid of $9,000 in the contract with Redwood Painting Company was for a typical two-color
logo. Since the final artwork is more complicated than a typical logo, staff feels the quote for the artwork
application is reasonable.
During ike solicitation of bids for the artwork application, the contractors suggested that the
artwork be painted instead of made of vinyl. They reasoned that the painted artwork would be
more vivid and detailed, would last longer (more than 15 years), and would be able to be painted
over witlhout removal in the future. The price for the painted artwork is estimated to be $28,000
(for the artwork only). The total cost, including the color bands and artist foe, would be $46,000.
Staff is recommending that the artwork be painted for the above-mentioned advantages.
FISCAL IMPACT: The expected service life of the vinyl artwork is ten years, whereas the
tank coating should last approximately ten to fifteen years. Therefore, the
City should anticipate similar costs associated with maintaining the tank
surface every ten to fifteen years. However, if the logo is painted, it
should last the life of the tank coating. The tank coating contract is for $49,840.
