    When the City lose the ability to set artwork on the ground?

    The City entered into an agreement with LBP Consulting, LLC (LBP) on May 13, 2025 to develop and
    implement the Artesia Blvd. Strategic Art Plan (Plan). The Plan, which was approved by the City
    Council on December 16, 2025, includes the installation of an LGBTQ+-themed artwork in front of the
    North Branch Library as part of Phase I, supported by an additional $35,000 allocation from the John
    Parsons Public Art Fund. The proposed amendment would provide an additional $7,500 for LBP’s
    consulting services and staff support for the installation of this added art piece. It also extends the
    Agreement term by three months to March 31, 2028 and updates project tasks and deadlines to
    accommodate the installation of all Phase I artworks. Staff recommends the City Council approve
    the proposed amendment to provide the professional support services needed to incorporate the
    LGBTQ+-themed artwork into Phase I of the Plan.
