Dear CHPAC,

 

Please find attached the Quick Report from last night’s meeting. 

 

Also, please visit this link and choose one or more days that you are available/prefer for the next CHPAC meeting:  http://www.doodle.com/x84nxz3tfd6dm5x7.   Lisa asks that we use this poll to determine the future day of the month for CHPAC meetings (I took the liberty of setting options for 5:30 p.m. during the second week of the month, and not including Friday).

 

Finally, please find below for your consideration the second mural-related motion proposed by Lisa which was tabled, along with Scott’s version of it.

 

Lisa’s motion: 
A motion was made to recommend the Town of Chapel Hill Planning Department and the Public Art Staff review together the current sign ordinance and LUMO [land use management ordinance] regarding art vs. sign, and a possible mural permitting process for non-publicly funded murals.

Scott’s motion:

(1)   That the Council authorize the city manager, public art staff, and planning department to work with the Public Art Commission to draft definitions for terms and activities such as: mural, photo mural, wall art, window art, etc.,

 

(2)  That the Public Art Commission solicit review and comment on the definitions from artists, arts organizations, and others interested in the Chapel Hill visual environment, and

 

(3)  That the Public Art Commission draft policies and perhaps minimum regulations to provide for the orderly courtesy review of proposed private murals, photo murals, wall art, window art, etc. for consideration by the Town Council.
