Yes, the Art in Public Places Board (AIPPB) is the City's authority on Public Art matters pursuant to Article 11 of the Miami 21 Code and Chapter 62, Article XVI of the City Code. As the first AIPPB appointed in July, 2017, this board had the uncommon responsibility of creating and shaping the initial AIPP framework, including: (i) opening -up the AIPP fund and setting up the first grant programs for expenditures; (ii) recommending that staff work with procurement to prepare an RFQ for professional services for a city public art master plan; and (iii) recommending the amendment of the Public Art Ordinance to provide for public art requirements and economic incentives for private development; in addition to its regular purview of approving public art and public art requirements for government sites. In January 2017, the City Commission voted to bifurcate the original Public Art Ordinance, approving the creation of the public art program, board, fund and the public art requirement for public development (Phase I); and suggested improvements to the public art requirement for private development to be heard as a separate amendment at a later date (Phase II). As some commissioners were concerned, Phase II is essential for the funding of the Public Art Program. Staff previously estimated that Phase I would contribute close to $400,000.00 annually to invest in new artwork, installation, maintenance, program administration, historical preservation, and arts education. However, as a result in an increase joint public private development and public development the annual figure increased overall to $727,699.70 over the past five years. Under Phase II on the other hand project AIPP fees would be over $14 million per year and would ensure adequate resources for the City. Without the equal participation of private development, the reality is that the AIPP program will be underfunded. Vacancies there are currently three (3) vacancies on the Board. It is of upmost importance that the City Commission move to fill the vacancies on the Board. Having a fully appointed Board will help ensure quorum and allow for broader representation, including from Miami -Dade County Schools and Commission District 3. As the Board enters its seventh year, it's clear that, given its role in creating the very framework for its existence, it has successfully fulfilled the purpose for which it was established. The Board has worked AIPPB Annual Report 2024 collaboratively with City staff to recommend the adoption of Miami's first Public Art Master Plan and remains dedicated to advancing this initiative to completion. Is the board serving current community needs? Yes, over the past 7 years, the City of Miami has added approximately 11,980 new residents every year. Those population figures are projected to continue creating additional strains on limited, to non -existing arts and cultural resources. While the Board has worked efficiently with Planning staff in accordance with the intent of the Art in Public Places Program, it lacks the financial resources necessary to serve a community that's is expected to reach half a million residents by 2024.

The City of Miami continues to depend significantly on Miami -Dade County to provide arts and cultural resources to its residents. With the county's population expected to grow and 34 municipalities vying for limited resources, it is essential for the City to allocate sufficient resources and adopt policies that will support the arts and the creative economy. This will ensure equitable access to the arts for all residents. AIPPB Annual Report 2024 Restoration and Maintenance The Public Art Program is responsible for maintaining the City -owned cultural monuments and artworks acquired before the establishment of the program. To date, the Program has successfully restored eight monuments along Biscayne Boulevard, one on Brickell Avenue, and one art installation at the Sandra DeLuca Development Center. However, many more artworks are in need of restoration due to years of deferred maintenance. It is important for the City to consider allocating the resources necessary to preserve its valuable cultural and artistic heritage.

AIPPB Annual Report 2024 Is there any other board, either public or private, which would better serve the function of the board? No other City board members possess the specialized knowledge in fine arts, architecture, urban planning, design, or related fields to effectively review public art requirements as per the City. Code. The AIPPB plays a crucial role in helping the City achieve its goal of creating a vibrant, world -class environment by providing objective reviews of public art installations that align with the surrounding urban setting. Should the ordinance creating the board be amended to better enable the board to serve the purpose for which it was created? On October 22, 2018 the Art in Public Places Board pursuant to Resolution No. AIPP-R-18.002 and AIPP- R-18-003 moved to recommend approval to the City Commission to amend Chapter 62/Article XVI of the Code of the City of Miami entitled "Art in Public Places Program" and the Miami 21 Code, the Zoning Ordinance of the City of Miami specifically by amending Article 1, Section 1.5 entitled "Definitions of Art in Public Places Program"; and Article 3, Section 3.17, entitled :Public Art Requirements"; and Article 11, entitled "Art in Public Places Program, to provide for Public Art requirements and economic incentives for private developments, With the adoption of Phase I of the Art in Public Places Ordinance, the City recognized the importance of integrating aesthetic diversity through art within its built environment. This contributes significantly to the AIPPB Annual Report 2024 quality of life for residents and supports the economic vitality of local businesses by attracting visitors and potential residents, creating job opportunities, and helping the City fulfill its mission to become a premier, world -class place to live, work, and raise a family. Additionally, upon the adoption of Phase I, the City Commission directed staff to explore the possibility of implementing public art requirements for private development. Currently, the AIPP Ordinance applies only to public development projects as defined in Article 1 of the Miami 21 Code. Currently, there are over 37 municipalities in the State of Florida with Public Art Programs. In Miami -Dade County the following municipalities have public art requirements on private development. • City of Coral Gables • City of Doral • City of Homestead • Village of Palmetto Bay • City of Sunny Isles It is the recommendation of this Board, that it's in the best interest of the city, to provide for public art requirements on private development. In 2017, the Planning Department conducted a preliminary public art study based on the over value of construction through permits issued by the Building Department. The study found that if Phase II had been implemented, approximately fourteen ($14,000,000.00) million dollars annually would have been generated for public art within the City of Miami. Should the board's membership requirements be modified? The City of Miami's requirements for membership on the AIPPB are currently found to be appropriate. Per Chapter 62, Section 62-655, Board members shall be persons of knowledge, experience, mature judgment, and background; having ability and desire to act in the public interest; and representing, insofar as may be possible, the various special professional training, experience, and interests required to make informed and equitable decisions concerning development of an artistic, culturally enriching, and visually diverse physical environment. Vacancies, there are currently three (3) vacancies on the Board. • Vacant Position 1, Board Member (District 3 • Vacant Position 2, Board Member (Alt. At -Large MDCPS) • Vacant Position 3, Board Member (Alt. At -Large) What are the costs, both direct and indirect, of maintaining the board? A conservative estimated cost of $12,700 per year.

Section 5. PUBLIC ART / FORECAST AIPPB Annual Report 2024 On January 23, 2019 the Miami -Dade Board of County Commissioners approved an ordinance to preempt municipalities from requiring County entities from complying with local municipal public art ordinances. The ordinance, mandate that County agencies only comply with Miami -Dade County Art in Public Places requirements as per Section 2-11.15 of the County Code as amended. This precludes the City of Miami's Public Art Division and the Art Public Places Board from reviewing County Public Development projects under per Article 11 of the Miami 21 Code entitled "Art in Public Places Program" and Chapter 62, Article XVI entitled "Art in Public Places" of the Code of the City of Miami. As a result, the County has the ability to shift public art fees generated from County Public Development projects located within the city to other geographic locations outside the city. In the fall of 2018, Miami -Dade Board of County Commissioners passed legislation to remove approximately 27 acres located in the Downtown urban core from the jurisdiction of the City of Miami. This move, preempted the City from applying the Miami 21 Code (The Zoning Ordinance), As a result staff saw a sharp decrease in public art fees from public projects due to legislative changes passed by Miami -Dade County. However, if the City Commission moves to adopt Phase II of the Art in Public Places Program as proposed by the Art in Public Places Board. The City will see an annual increase of approximately $14 million in public art in addition to affordable dwelling units for artist, affordable studio and office space for artist and non-profit organizations that promote the visual and performing arts. Since, the AIPPB recommended approval of Phase II to the City Commission, the Public Art Division has been contacted by multiple municipalities across the state as they are looking to adopt similar public art requirements as proposed by the City of Miami. On December 6, 2018 the City of Dunedin, became the latest municipality in Florida to adopt public art requirements on private development. Dunedie City commissioners voted unanimously to adopt an ordinance establishing the public art program. City of Dunedin becomes the 38th municipality in Florida to adopt a public art ordinance according to information from the Florida Association of Public Art Professionals. Dunedin joins the ranks of other Florida cities such as Coral Gables, Doral, Sunny Isles, Palmetto Bay, Homestead, Tampa, Naples, Palm Beach, Coral Springs, Sarasota, Clear Water, Lauderhill, Tamarac, AIPPB Annual Report 2024 Boyton Beach, and Key West that have public art requirements on both public and private development projects.
