CC 2014-09-09_09.a. Public Art Project - Sculptured LanternMEMORANDUM
TO: CITY COUNCIL
FROM: TERESA MCCLISH, COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR
SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF A PUBLIC ART SCULPTURED LANTERN AT
150 S. COURTLAND STREET; APPLICANT PEOPLES SELF HELP
HOUSING -ARROYO GRANDE PUBLIC ART COMMITTEE (STAFF
PROJECT NO. 14-001)
DATE: SEPTEMBER 9, 2014
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended the City Council allow public comment and provide input on the
proposed sculptured lantern.
IMPACT ON FINANCIAL AND PERSONNEL RESOURCES:
There is no fiscal impact projected or recommended. The proposed public art is funded
exclusively from project applicants.
BACKGROUND:
In 2002, the City Council approved staff recommendations for an Art in Public Places
Program and Process. The recommendations were prepared with the assistance of the
San Luis Obispo County Arts Council. It was largely in response to a community
controversy that was generated by public art that was displayed by a private developer
in the Village. An Art Donation Program was approved by the City Council in 2006. In
2011, the Public Art Guidelines were amended regarding the Art in Public Places
Program and limited the process only to private projects. The City's current Guidelines
are included in Attachment 1 .
In January 2013, Arroyo Grande Public Art (AGPA) was established as a program within
Arroyo Grande In Bloom (AGIB), a non-profit volunteer organization. The first public art
piece was the mural at 303 E. Branch street that was approved by the Public Art
Committee in on May 2, 2014 after a public comment was considered at City Council on
April 22, 2014.
ANALYSIS OF ISSUES:
People's Self Help Housing Corporation (PSHHC) has worked with the Arroyo Grande
Public Art Committee to develop an art proposal for the PSHHC project constructed at
150 S. Courtland Street in the City. Through a competitive process, PSHHC has
selected a Japanese Lantern sculpture to be placed at the entrance to the apartment

project between the pergola and the windows of the community room (Attachments 1
and 2). A description of the proposed project and the selected artist is attached
(Attachment 3).
The lantern sculpture will be six feet tall and a LED lighting system installed inside.
PSHHC selected the cor-ten steel option for the proposed sculpture/lantern art. This
material is virtually maintenance free. PSHHC has modified the proposed concept to
reduce the potential for vandalism, particularly related to the steel hand hoe component
of the design.
In accordance with the City's Public Art Guidelines, the art project decision is made by
the panel after a City Council public hearing intended to solicit public and Council input.
The panel selection for this project includes the following to date:
);;>-Two representatives from the property owner: Carolyn Johnson, Chair Board of
Directors, and one other representative
);;>-Two representatives from the County Art Council: Kathy Teuffel and Jim Trask
);;>-One representative from the ARC: Michael Peachy
);;>-One representative from the Chamber or VIA: Judith Bean
);;>-One representative from the South County Historical Society: Jan Scott
The intent of establishing the process was to ensure that public art projects were
sensitive to community concerns, but to avoid government censorship of art. The
primary focus was on private projects in public view. Therefore, the Council cannot take
action, only provide input.
The following are criteria to be used in the selection of public art, which were also
developed by the County Arts Council:
);;>-Relationship to the social, cultural and historical identity of the area. If the public
art is proposed to be located in the Village Core Downtown or Village Mixed Use
Districts, the art piece shall be representative or evocative of the turn of the
century historical period;
);;>-Evaluation of artistic excellence;
);;>-Appropriateness of scale, form, material, content and design relative to the
immediate and general neighborhood;
);;>-Relationship to the social, cultural and historical identity of the area;

PROJECT BACKGROUND AND GOALS
Peoples Self Help Housing (PSHHC) seeks an artist to design, create and install
a Public Art piece along a section of the PSHHC 150 S. Courtland frontage in
Arroyo Grande California. The Courtland Street Apartments are under
construction at this location. Once completed the apartments will be home to
thirty six (36) low to moderate income families. The Grand opening of the
Courtland Apartment project is scheduled for October 16, 2014. Optimally the
project's Public Art will be presented to the community at the grand opening.
The Courtland site was once home to a portion of the agricultural area of
Arroyo Grande farmed by the Japanese-American community. PSHHC respects
the value of their labors that are still borne out today with employment
opportunities to low and moderate income agricultural workers. PSHHCC
wishes to honor the legacy of these early Arroyo Grande agricultural pioneers.
The commissioned Public Art will reflect their extraordinary commitment and
commemorate their important role in the community. For inspiration the
following links provide historical background: http: I /pove.net/ our-history/

Japanese Lantern
History: . The Japanese-American community has a long history of agriculture both in
Japan and on the Central California Coast The proposed site along Courtland Street was
once an active agricultmal area. PSlllIC requested Public Art reflecting the heri1age of
this land. Legal land ownership and internment presented challenges for the Japanese
population and recognition of their legacy is important.
Proposed Pablie Art: Lanterils were first used in ancient Shinto shrines where they
served as votive lights in the sixteenth century. They where used in tea gardens as a
means to lipt the way with 1heir rustic beauty and rich light.
\
I have taken the stone lanterns of the past and given them a contemporary spin while
keeping a traditional design. This lantern will serve as a lamp post. Each of fom metal
sides will be pcri"orated to allow 'light to pass through in addition to the Japanese symbols
on the sides of the lantern. The-perfomted design ties in with the cratlsman style of the
apartments' architecture. The top design element on the lantern will be a steel hand hoe
used by farmers in the past. Farmers bent over' from the waist to reach the ground with
the hoe, which caused permanent lower back pain and lead the California Supreme Court
to ban it in 1975. Only long handle hoes are used today. The hoe signifies the struggles
fimners endured during these years of farming.
The sculptured lantern will be six feet tall to the top hoe design element tmd 1§_ inc~ __
wide on each side. Two options are availab~e ~ ~~~D: ~m.s:1-(1) made from , '
\-cor-ten sieeIWhich Will age 10-a ieadest iUst finish and will last indefinitely,or (2) made
'-from mild steel with-a baked-o~-powder coating-fiDisliilia-selected color: An LED
lighting system will be inside the lantern, with a small door at the _bottom for maintenance
and to bolt the sculpture to the concrete base and footing.
..q ~~
A rendering is done and attached to this proposal. Up to 4 Japanese symbols will be
desijpl~ into each oft~e four sides. The design depicted in the rendering represents
Courage. I will inv~lve the Japanese-Anierican community in selection of symbols to be
cut into the side panels of the lantern. Suggested location for the lantern is along the
en1ry sidewalk, inside the concrete entrance wall or to the left or riglit of the entrance.
lnst8Batlon: The lantern will be on a concrete pad and footing. Foundation bolts and an
electrical conduit will be embedded in the concrete. The sculpture will be manually lifted
in place. -

~ce: Cor-ten steel is~ free. Any mmks or graffiti can be wire
brushed off and the oxidi7.ed surface will return. If the powder coating finish is ch~ it
can be re-powdered again if damaged. The LED electrical lighting shOuld last 10,000
homs or more.
Artist~~ I have worked as a tun time sculptor for fifteen years an4
successfully completed all 12 commissioned Public Art sculptures on.time and budget. I
have also retailed my art at two· galleries Who have sold my art throughout the Uni~
s~ Enclosed are six images of my previous Public Art sculptures.
Timetable: If the review and approval by the City of Arroyo ·Grande is completed in 30
days, tJie proposed sculpt1Jre will be ~ed by the grand opening of October 16,_2014.
