Public Works 'Bleacher' Building Mural
Summary
A roughly 1,750-square-foot mural is planned for the Public Works building, with a seascape on one side and renderings of the department's services on the other. Instead of setting a stipend, the city will ask artists to propose their own fees, with submissions due May 15.

The call for this mural drew only one submission, with a $36,550 estimate that included travel and lodging the city won't pay for. The committee extended the call with clearer terms and better photos, and will invite the lone applicant to resubmit.
