AGENDA TITLE: Adopt Resolution Approving the People Assisting Lodi Shelter (PALS) PublicArt
Project, as Approved by the Lodi Art Advisory Board, and Appropriate $58,000
from Art in Public Places Fund
MEETING DATE: July 18, 2007
PREPARED BY: Deanie Bridewell
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt resolution approving the People Assisting Lodi Shelter
(PALS) Public Art Project, as approved by the Lodi Art Advisory
Board, and appropriate $58,000 from Art in Public Places Fund.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Tony Segale and volunteer members of the PALS organization
approached the Art Advisory Board on April 25, 2007, with a
proposal for an art piece at its PALS location on Kettleman Lane. It
is proposing to build a dog run with funds realized from a fund raiser
held on April 28. The art panels it is requesting would be installed above the dog run and the focus
would be on improving the existing facility. Tony Segale was approached to do the project. His concept
is an eight foot mural consisting of four panels. They would be made from painted aluminum and
attached to metal frame work and then to the wall. The design would be in a "50's style." The completion
time is estimated to be five months. It was noted that the panels can be disassembled and moved to
another location if PALS should be relocated. The panels will be located on the south wall of the Animal
Shelter visible from Kettleman Lane.
FISCAL IMPACT: From time to time, art projects of this nature are reviewed by the Lodi Art
Advisory Board and recommended for approval by City Council. The Art in
Public Places Fund has approximately $500,000 available for projects of
this nature.
FUNDING: Budget request of $58,000; appropriatefrom the Art in Public Places Fund.

Dear Members of Lodi Art Advisory Board:
On behalf of the People Assisting the Lodi Animal Shelter (PALS) I an pleased to
submit our request for funding to beautify the south wall of the shelter with a mural or art
project. This will bring much needed attention to the neglected City Animal Shelter.
PALS is a non-profit, community-based organization dedicated to saving the lives of
Lodi's unwanted companion animals. We provide information and adoption services to
the public and work to minimize the pet overpopulationby educating the people of Lodi.
This organization is growing and our 100% volunteer group raise funds to purchase
necessary equipment, provide veterinary services, food and shelter and adoption services
for the city. Last year PALS spent more than $85,000 to help shelter animals in the City
of Lodi.
We are currently organizing a fundraiser to construct a decorative iron fenced -in dog nun
area parallel to the south wall of the city animal shelter. What better way to accent this
endeavor than to have a giant mural or art project to remind passing motorists to help
their four legged friends. What better way to tell passing motorists that Lodi is a city that
loves its animals!!
We are asking for your help in making this dream a reality for years to come. If you
should have any questions, please feel free to contact Nancy Alumbaugh at 334-4189.
Also please visit our newly designed website at www. pal slodi,org.
Sincerely,
fiLJJC)
Kelly Higgs, PALS President.
