A RESOLUTION OF THE LODI CITY COUNCIL AUTHORIZING
THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE THE CONTRACT FOR THE
SEWARD JOHNSON SCULPTURE EXHIBIT AND FURTHER
APPROPRIATING FUNDS FOR THE EXHIBIT AND THE
TRAFFIC CONTROL BOX ART PROJECT
WHEREAS, the City Council initially approved an expenditure of $39,500 on
November 6, 2013, upon the recommendation of the Art Advisory Board; and
WHEREAS, the Board later learned from the foundation that controls the Seward
Johnson sculptures that not all of the desired pieces were available to display in Lodi in 2014
and, as a result, decided to postpone the exhibit until 2015; and
WHEREAS, the exhibit is scheduled for display in downtown Lodi from April 15, 2015
through July 15, 2015; and
WHEREAS, the exhibit consists of 10 sculptures at a cost of $24,000; and
WHEREAS, not all of the Traffic Control Box Art Project funds appropriated in
FY 2013/14 ($4,500) were expended, and the unspent balance of $3,300 needs to be
appropriated for the final six box art projects and for a protective sealant for all 10 boxes in this
phase; and
WHEREAS, the overall appropriation of $30,000 includes a contingency of $2,700 for
unforeseen expenses related to the sculpture installation, removal, and sidewalk repair.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Lodi City Council does hereby
authorize the City Manager to execute the contract for the Seward Johnson Sculpture Exhibit;
and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that Art in Public Places funds in the amount of $30,000
be appropriated for the Seward Johnson Sculpture Exhibit and Traffic Control Box Art Project.
