Executive Summary (General Business): Sansone Development Group, as the developer of Legacy Park at Tradition, submitted an application for a proposed sculpture titled "Tree of American Dreams". The application was submitted under Section 162.08 (d) of the Art in Public Places Ordinance. Per Section 162.08 (d), an applicant can apply for approval of an alternative equivalent proposal for the installation of freely accessible work of art on City public right-of-way, on property owned by other public agencies, or on another property under the control or ownership of the developer. Under the alternative equivalent proposal option, an applicant may seek to combine the public art assessment associated with multiple projects into one larger work of art in lieu of several small works of art. The developer must demonstrate that the cost of the proposal will be equal to the cost of the public art assessment that would otherwise be required for each project. The City may approve the proposal if it finds that the developer has established to the satisfaction of the City that the alternative equivalent proposal will create freely accessible public art in the City to an equal or greater extent than installation of public art on individual project sites or a contribution to the City's Public Art Fund.

Presentation Information: The applicant will make a presentation.
