To: CHPAC From: Dick Robinson I am told that some CHPAC colleagues
may still be uncertain about the nature of structural arrangements and
relationships that are in play, and so I offer this additional summary and
invite you to raise any unresolved questions about the impending changes that
you may wish to discuss at our meeting on Wednesday. 1. For 4 years the CHPAC has been a
private 501(c) (3) corporation, that legally is not a component of town
government. 2. However, the corporation,
pursuant to a bilateral performance agreement, has functioned during that
period as a "special commission" of the town, exercising delegated
authority and responsibility for facilitating the town's public art program. 3. Our corporate function will be
displaced by a new town infrastructure, consisting of a town employed Public
Arts Administrator and a new town advisory commission of citizen volunteers
that will advise and assist the Administrator in the continuation of the town's
program. 4. The current members of the
corporate board will be offered the opportunity to serve as members of the
initial class of membership of the new town commission. 5. The independent 501(c) (3)
corporation, with change in name, will continue in existence to perform a
different function, viz., seek to raise funds from private sources for art
projects of benefit to the public, separate from the town's programs. 6. The current members of the
corporate board will continue, for the immediate future, to serve as directors
of that newly focused corporate endeavor. Thus, the same people, if they so
choose, may be functioning in two capacities concurrently, viz., members of the
corporate board and members of the new town commission. 7. At a future date, the corporation
may choose to revise its by-laws to differently constitute its board of
directors, to more usefully reflect the realities of its new mission. |
