A. The mayor may recommend to city council the approval or denial of monument proposals. The mayor may enact administrative guidelines and procedures to implement this chapter, including procedures for consideration of locations deemed amenable to monuments. The mayor shall also designate the lead department or departments for monuments located on city property depending on the proposed location of the monument and the potential impact to city departments.

B. Notwithstanding that certain city property is operated or managed by a private operator pursuant to an agreement, the evaluator of the monument and the final decision maker shall be the city council and not the private operator or manager.

C. The director of the lead department shall coordinate with the director of parks, art and recreation if there are any questions or issues as to whether a proposed monument is primarily public art, or whether it otherwise fits into the city’s public art programs. (Ord. 6480 § 1, 2013.)
