2. Subject: Consider a public art installation for Jollyman Park
Recommended Action: Receive a presentation on the proposed public art for the All-Inclusive
Playground Project at Jollyman Park and approve the public art.
Gian Martire, Senior Planner, introduced Evelyn Moran, Public Works Project Manager, to
present on the item. Project Manager Moran gave an outline of the subject and introduced
4
Melissa Erikson, MIG Consultant, to continue the presentation. Consultant Erikson provided an
overview including project history, alterations due to previous suggestions, budget and art in a
play area considerations.
Commissioners asked clarifying questions.
Commissioner Rohra commended the team for addressing the commission’s previous concerns.
She requested clarification on the number of petal arms and possible reflections and shadows
cast on neighbors. Consultant Erikson stated there were four arms. She clarified that there were
no homes close to the area and that the material for the petals was translucent and positioned
flatly in the sculpture. Reflections would not be an issue. Project Manager Moran stated that the
nearest home is four hundred feet away and has a landscape buffer.
Vice Chair Wang echoed Commissioner Rohra’s praise of the teams hard work. He asked for
clarification on the sound element that was alluded to in the presentation. Consultant Erikson
stated that due to the amount of activity in this location of the park, sound elements were ruled
out. She clarified that sound elements would be part of other designated play areas.
Commissioner Agrawal asked for clarification of the tactile element of the piece. Project
Manager Moran stated that the mechanism of the piece could be operated using a closed fist .
Consultant Erickson stated the reason for this was to make it more usable. Commissioner
Agrawal asked for clarification if a single wheel or multiple wheels would be used to operate
the different arms. Consultant Erickson clarified that different wheels would be used for each
arm.
Chair Maa asked for clarification as to how the color choices were made. Consultant Erickson
stated that color samples were provided by the fabricator which were then taken out into the
sun to determine the best combinations for color and shadows. Chair Maa asked if any one
color was more durable than the others. Consultant Erickson stated all the colors were equally
durable. Chair Maa asked if the colors were chosen to include people with visual disabilities.
Consultant Erickson clarified that considerations had been made and included in the decision
for the strongest results. Chair Maa asked if the colors were final. Project Manager Susan
Michael clarified that it would be best to determine final color choice later, on the project site.
Chair Maa asked if more tactile elements could be introduced at the interaction interface.
Consultant Erickson stated those considerations had been made but ruled out for safety and
maintenance concerns.
Commissioner Rohra asked for clarification if the manipulation wheels would be accessible and
useable for younger children. Consultant Erickson stated they would. Commissioner Rohra
asked if the possible additive element mentioned in the presentation would be located
elsewhere in the park. Consultant Erikson stated that since the element was meant as a visual
stimulation, it would most likely be in a planter near benches. She clarified that the element was
5
included as a possible additive because there were no opportunities to alter the structure of the
primary sculpture.
Commissioner Agrawal asked how this particular piece was arrived at as opposed to something
more interactive and child friendly. Project Managers Moran and Michael stated that several
items were presented to the Commission previously and this was the one that was determined
to be the best fit.
Vice Chair Wang stated he was ready to approve the main project, but not in favor of the
additive element for fiscal responsibility reasons.
Commissioner Rohra stated that she believed the feedback and asks of the Commission were
satisfied to the best of the project teams’ ability. She said she was unsure about the additive
element and didn’t feel strongly about it either way.
Chair Maa asked Vice Chair Wang to clarify his fiscal responsibility reason. Vice Chair Wang
stated that he did not feel that the additive element enhanced the project significantly for the
price. He expressed that if the Commission saves money now, there will be opportunities to
spend on other projects.
Chair Maa thanked the team for their efforts. She stated that she was disappointed that all
involved had not created something significant for Cupertino. She stated that she felt in five
years they would look back and realize they had not done enough.
Commissioner Rohra commended the staff and Commission for their efforts. She stated that
this being the first time this process had been done, she felt that there were successful elements
which they could learn from for future projects.
Commissioner Rohra motioned to approve the Kaleidoscope design as presented, with the
budget as estimated and without the additive element. Vice Chair Wang seconded the motion.
Motion carried with 4 yes and 1 absent.
NEW BUSINESS
3. Subject: 2023 Distinguished, Emerging, and Young Artist Award Programs
Recommended Action: Evaluate participant submissions for the 2023 Distinguished,
Emerging, and Young Artist Award Programs and select winners for each category.
Jessica Javier, Administrative Assistant, Parks and Recreation, gave a brief overview of the
evaluation process and asked if any of the commissioners had a conflict of interest regarding the
entries. None of the commissioners stated a conflict of interest. Administrative Assistant Javier
asked if the commissioners had any questions. Chair Maa requested clarification if there were
repeat applicants for the same award. Administrative Assistant Javier clarified that applicants
6
could apply year after year in the same categories as long as the requirements are still met. She
stated that one applicant had resubmitted an art piece from a previous year as part of a
portfolio. Chair Maa asked for clarification on the late entry and if it should be considered.
Administrative Assistant Javier clarified that the entry was allowed due to technical difficulties
when no staff was available. She stated that submittal process adjustments would be made to
prevent this for upcoming years.
Administrative Assistant Javier reminded the commissioners of the maximum and minimum
point scoring per the evaluation form and collected the commissioners total scores for each
artist across all categories – Young Artist Group A, Young Artist Group B, Emerging Artist, and
Distinguished Artist.
Chair Maa opened and closed the item for public comment seeing no members of the public
present.
Administrative Assistant Javier suggested opening the discussion for the top five Young Artists
Group A entries. Chair Maa opened the discussion. She stated that the criteria to discuss would
be media, contest theme creativity, imagination, individuality, and was the theme addressed.
Administrative Assistant Javier stated that the scores for the top five could be adjusted to reflect
the top three choices after reassessment and discussion.
Vice Chair Wang shared his screen with the top five entries for Group A displayed. The
commissioners discussed technique, media, imagination and subject for the five pieces. They
were impressed by them all but were able to narrow the entries to the top three. The
commissioners were polled for the order of their choices. Final tally for the Young Artist Group
A votes determined:
1st Place - Amelia Wang
2nd Place - Chloe Park
3rd Place - Swara Ananth
Administrative Assistant Javier displayed the scored order of the Young Artists Group B
entrants. The commissioners agreed to take the top five entrants for final consideration. Chair
Maa reiterated the criteria for discussion. Vice Chair Wang shared his screen with the top five
entries for Group B displayed. All the commissioners praised the entries for their creativity and
technique. They discussed the pieces and were polled for their choices. Final tally for the
Young Artist Group B votes determined:
1st Place – Yishan Lin
2nd Place – Rosa Lee
3rd Place – Jonny Tang
7
Administrative Assistant Javier displayed the rankings for the Emerging Artist entries. She
suggested all the commissioners refer to the submitted portfolios on their laptops to help make
the decision on final ranking choices. She clarified that only a platinum winner needed to be
chosen, but gold and silver rankings were optional. She stated that only the platinum winner
received a cash prize. She clarified the other ranked winners would receive plaques.
Administrative Assistant Javier suggested that consideration of the top three be used due to the
amount of material to be reviewed in the portfolios. Vice Chair Wang stated he preferred to
consider the top five to remain consistent.
Commissioner Rohra asked if all the commissioners had read the Gill Doyle entry. She observed
that it was very difficult to compare the different medias and be fair when deciding. She
suggested that unique entries be separated and called out specially. Commissioner Agrawal
suggested that the commissioners leave the judging as is but make changes for future
competitions. Administrative Assistant Javier stated that types of entries change yearly, and
that sometimes other mediums may be absent. Vice Chair Wang stated that he felt as
representatives of the Arts and Culture Commission they needed to promote and acknowledge
all types of art, not just visual.
The top four entries were discussed. A silver award was chosen. The choice for platinum and
gold awards deadlocked. Chair Ma asked to reread the artists personal statements.
Commissioner Rohra asked to look at the ranked scores one more time. After further discussion,
the final tally for the Emerging Artist votes determined:
1st Place – Chloe Yoon
2nd Place – Tiffany Gu
3rd Place – Gill Doyle
Administrative Assistant Javier displayed the rankings for the Distinguished Artist entries. She
inquired if the commissioners wanted to consider the top five or three ranked. Commissioner
Rohra reiterated her previous comments as to whether an entry that was a not visually media
based should receive special consideration. The commissioners deliberated and narrowed the
selection to four entries. Chair Maa noted that design and composition were criteria factors for
this category to be considered. The commissioners stated that all the entries were amazing.
Chair Maa stated that she wanted to highlight lesser-known artists. Administrative Assistant
Javier polled the commissioners to remove one name from the four entries being considered.
Commissioner Agrawal suggested future entries names be anonymous so as not to influence the
decision-making process if the artist is known. Administrative Assistant Javier stated that this
could be part of a later discussion. The final tally for the Distinguished Artist votes determined:
1st Place – Astrid Chevallier
2nd Place – Janki Chokshi
3rd Place – Mukund Marathe

Chair Maa moved to accept the winners as discussed and agreed to in the meeting for the 2023
Artist Award Program. Commissioner Rohra seconded. Motion carried with 4 yes and 1 absent.
Chair Maa closed the item.

Resolution No. ASA-2023-013 January 22, 2024
Page 2
WHEREAS, pursuant to Cupertino Municipal Code Section 19.148.060 Design Criteria
and Artist Qualifications and Section 19.168.030 Architectural and Site Approval, the Arts
and Culture Commission finds as follows with regard to this application:
1. The artwork is of a nature specified in Section 19.148.030.
Section 19.148.030 identifies sculpture and functional artwork as a permitted artwork.
2. The artwork requirement is to be satisfied with one significant piece of artwork,
except that the requirement may be met with several works of art when specifically
found by the Fine Arts Commission to fulfill the intent of this chapter. The artwork
shall be an integral part of the landscaping and/or architecture of the buildings.
The artwork consists of multiple art pieces located at focal areas of the development. The
location of the artwork is in an open area making it an integral component of the landscaping
and site.
3. The artwork shall be easily visible from the public street and be located in an area
specifically designated on the project site plan. Appropriate locations include, but are
not limited to, entryways to the property, greenbelts, and building exteriors. The
artwork must be in permanent view to motorists and pedestrians. Artwork located at
the entrance to a development should make a major statement and be visible from the
main parking lot, if any. When located in proximity to major traffic thoroughfares, the
artwork should be at a motorist's scale and oriented toward the view corridor of the
motorist.
The artwork would be visible to residents, motorists, and pedestrians who travel by the site
because the artwork shall be in an area along the corner of the development.
4. The composition of the artwork shall be of permanent materials requiring a low level
of maintenance. Materials used shall be durable and resistant to graffiti and the effects
of weather.
The materials are permanent stainless-steel materials, as well as Ipe wood, requiring a low
level of maintenance. The lights have an approximate 20-year durability. A maintenance
program has been approved as part of this application.
5. The nature and style of the artwork shall be considered in the context of other artwork
in the surrounding area in order to encourage a wide range of art styles and materials,
and to create a balanced and interesting aesthetic appearance. The developer is
encouraged to give preference to artists living or working in the San Francisco Bay
area, and to avoid using artists whose work is already displayed as public art within
the City of Cupertino boundaries.
17
Resolution No. ASA-2023-013 January 22, 2024
Page 3
The artwork meets the minimum requirements because the proposal adds to the wide range of
styles and materials currently represented in Cupertino’s catalog of public art. The artists are
local to the San Francisco Bay Area but has not been previously commissioned for other works
in Cupertino, therefore adds to the diversity of artists locally.
6. Artwork shall be identified by an appropriate plaque or monument measuring not
less than eight inches by eight inches. The plaque shall be made of a durable,
permanent material and shall be placed near the artwork, and shall list the date of
installation, title and artist, and medium.
The artwork are identified by an 8”x8” stainless-steel plaques.
7. The proposed artwork shall meet the criteria for review as set forth in the City of
Cupertino Public Art Program Guidelines for Selection of Public Art, as originally
adopted by the City Council Resolution No. 05-040, or as later amended.
The art program meets the criteria stated within City of Cupertino Public Art Program
Guidelines for Selection of Public Art, which are incorporated into the findings stated above
in Sections II 1-5 and/or incorporated into the conditions of approval in Section III of this
resolution.
8. The proposal, at the proposed location, will not be detrimental or injurious to property
or improvements in the vicinity, and will not be detrimental to the public health,
safety, general welfare, or convenience:
The proposed public art pieces are located around landscape areas and internal sidewalks that
will need to meet ADA requirements of the development. Minimal modifications are proposed
for the site landscaping. Therefore, the proposed artwork will not be detrimental or injurious
to property or improvements in the vicinity, and will not be detrimental to the public health,
safety, general welfare, or convenience.
9. The proposal is consistent with the purposes of Chapter 19.168, the General Plan, any
specific plan, zoning ordinances, applicable planned development permit, conditional
use permits, variances, subdivision maps or other entitlements to use which regulate
the subject property including, but not limited to, adherence to the following specific
criteria:
a) Abrupt changes in building scale should be avoided. A gradual transition related
to height and bulk should be achieved between new and existing buildings.
The project scope does not include an increase in floor area or modifications to any of the
buildings onsite. The artwork is proposed in an area onsite where there are currently no
structures. Additionally, the design maintains a human scale.
18
Resolution No. ASA-2023-013 January 22, 2024
Page 4
b) In order to preserve design harmony between new and existing buildings and in
order to preserve and enhance property values, the materials, textures and colors
of new building should harmonize with adjacent development by being consistent
or compatible with design and color schemes with the future character of the
neighborhoods and purposes of the zone in which they are situated. The location,
height and materials of walls, fencing, hedges and screen planting should
harmonize with adjacent development. Unsightly storage areas, utility
installations and unsightly elements of parking lots should be concealed. The
planting of ground cover or various types of pavements should be used to prevent
dust and erosion, and the unnecessary destruction of existing health y trees should
be avoided. Lighting for development should be adequate to meet safety
requirements as specified by the engineering and building departments and
provide shielding to prevent spill-over light to adjoining property owners.
The proposed artwork is designed to be harmonious with the surrounding landscape and is
compatible with the development. New native landscaping will complement the intent of
the design of the spiral art piece. Lighting for the artwork are low-voltage LEDs and
lighting standards have been conditioned to prevent intrusive effects on adjacent
properties.
c) The number, location, color, size, height, lighting and landscaping of outdoor
advertising signs and structures have been designed to minimize traffic hazard,
positively affect the general appearance of the neighborhood and harmonize with
adjacent development.
The artwork is identified by a plaque at the pathway as required by CMC Section
19.148.060. They are made of durable, permanent materials and are integrated into the
artwork design and overall site.
d) With respect to new projects within existing residential neighborhoods, new
development should be designed to protect residents from noise, traffic, light and
visually intrusive effects by use of buffering, setbacks, landscap ing, walls and
other appropriate design measures.
This application is not a new development project and the artwork itself maintains
sufficient setback along the front setback.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED:
That after careful consideration of the maps, facts, exhibits, testimony, staff’s report and
presentation, and other evidence submitted in this matter, subject to the conditions which
are enumerated in this Resolution beginning on PAGE 4 thereof,

24
Resolution No. ASA-2023-013 January 22, 2024
Page 10
The landscape installation report shall include the following statement: “The
landscape and irrigation system have been installed as specified in the landscape
and irrigation design plan and complies with the criteria of the ordinance and the
permit.”
19. LANDSCAPE AND IRRIGATION MAINTENANCE
Per the Landscape Ordinance (CMC, Chapter 14.15), a maintenance schedule shall
be established and submitted to the Director of Community Development or
his/her designee, either with the landscape application package, with the
landscape installation report, or any time before the landscape installation report
is submitted.
a. Schedules should take into account water requirements for the plant
establishment period and water requirements for established landscapes.
b. Maintenance shall include, but not be limited to the following: routine
inspection; pressure testing, adjustment, and repair of the irrigation system;
aerating and de-thatching turf areas; replenishing mulch; fertilizing; pruning;
replanting of failed plants; weeding; pest control; and removing obstructions
to emission devices.
c. Failed plants shall be replaced with the same or functionally equivalent plants
that may be size-adjusted as appropriate for the stage of growth of the overall
installation. Failing plants shall either be replaced or be revived through
appropriate adjustments in water, nutrients, pest control or other factors as
recommended by a landscaping professional.
20. NESTING BIRDS
Nests of raptors and other birds shall be protected when in active use, as required
by the federal Migratory Bird Treaty Act and the California Department of Fish
and Game Code.
a. Construction and tree removal/pruning activities shall be scheduled to avoid
the nesting season to the extent feasible. If feasible, tree removal and/or
pruning shall be completed before the start of the nesting season to help
preclude nesting. The nesting season for most birds and raptors in the San
Francisco Bay area extends from February 1 through August 31.
Preconstruction surveys (described below) are not required for tree removal or
construction activities outside the nesting period.
b. If construction activities and any required tree removal occur during the
nesting season (February 1 and August 31), a qualified ornithologist shall be
required to conduct surveys prior to tree removal or construction activities.
Preconstruction surveys shall be conducted no more than 14 days prior to the
start of tree removal, pruning or construction. Preconstruction surveys shall be
25
Resolution No. ASA-2023-013 January 22, 2024
Page 11
repeated at 14-day intervals until construction has been initiated in the area
after which surveys can be stopped. During this survey, the ornithologist shall
inspect all trees and other possible nesting habitats in and immediately
adjacent to the construction areas for nests.
c. If the survey does not identify any nesting birds that would be affected by
construction activities, no further mitigation is required. If an active nest
containing viable eggs or young birds is found sufficiently close to work areas
to be disturbed by these activities, their locations shall be documented, and
protective measures implemented under the direction of the qualified
ornithologist until the nests no longer contain eggs or young birds.
d. Protective measures shall include establishment of clearly delineated exclusion
zones (i.e., demarcated by identifiable fencing, such as orange construction
fencing or equivalent) around each nest location as determined by the qualified
ornithologist, taking into account the species of birds nesting, their tolerance
for disturbance and proximity to existing development. In general, exclusion
zones shall be a minimum of 300 feet for raptors and 75 feet for passerines and
other birds. The active nest within an exclusion zone shall be monitored on a
weekly basis throughout the nesting season to identify signs of disturbance and
confirm nesting status. The radius of an exclusion zone may be increased by
the qualified biologist, if project activities are determined to be adversely
affecting the nesting birds. Exclusion zones may be reduced by the qualified
biologist only in consultation with California Department of Fish and Wildlife.
The protection measures and buffers shall remain in effect until the young have
left the nest and are foraging independently or the nest is no longer active.
e. A final report on nesting birds and raptors, including survey methodology,
survey date(s), map of identified active nests (if any), and protection measures
(if required), shall be submitted to the Planning Manager, through the building
permit review process, and be completed to the satisfaction of the Community
Development Director prior to the start of grading.
21. TREE AND LANDSCAPE MAINTENANCE
The property owner shall be responsible for ensuring that the existing trees and
newly planted trees are properly maintained including but not limited to ensuring
that there is adequate soil drainage, that the soil is well -aerated, and irrigation
systems are thoroughly tested to provide sufficient water to landscaped areas
while reducing water waste.
26
Resolution No. ASA-2023-013 January 22, 2024
Page 12
22. TREE PROTECTION
As part of the demolition or building permit drawings, a tree protection plan shall
be prepared by a certified arborist for the trees to be retained. In addition, the
following measures shall be added to the protection plan:
For trees to be retained, chain link fencing and other root protection shall be
installed around the dripline of the tree prior to any project site work.
No parking or vehicle traffic shall be allowed under root zones, unless using
buffers approved by the Project Arborist.
No trenching within the critical root zone area is allowed. If trenching is
needed in the vicinity of trees to be retained, the City’s consulting arborist shall
be consulted before any trenching or root cutting beneath the dripline of the
tree.
Wood chip mulch shall be evenly spread inside the tree projection fence to a
four-inch depth.
Tree protection conditions shall be posted on the tree protection barriers.
Retained trees shall be watered to maintain them in good health.
A covenant on the property shall be recorded that identifies all the protected
trees, prior to final occupancy.
The tree protection measures shall be inspected and approved by the certified
arborist prior to issuance of building permits. The City’s consulting arborist shall
inspect the trees to be retained and shall provide reviews prior to issuance of
demolition, grading or building permits. A report ascertaining the good health of
the trees mentioned above shall be provided prior to issuance of final occupancy.

ARTIST BIO
Berkeley based artist Eric Powell is known for his large works of art that relate strongly
to site and architecture. Working both on commissioned private works and public art
projects, he translates an idea into large, freeform structures that can withstand strong
wind loads and harsh environments. He also designs and fabricates functional art
including gates, benches, and railings. Powell appreciates public art commissions for
their collaborative aspect, as well as for the opportunity to design and create works of
art that are lasting, permanent, accessible and compelling for all viewers.
Powell studied sculpture and painting at California College of Arts and the University
of Southern California. In 1982, he co-founded Spirit Arts Gallery in Santa Fe, New
Mexico, where he created an extensive body of sculptural works. In 1989, he founded
Eric Powell Studio where he produces public and private commissions and works for
gallery and museum exhibitions. Ericpowell.com

THE OAKS ART BENCHES
Eric Powell
Westport Cupertino Affordable Senior Housing Apartments
The oak tree theme draws from the history of Cupertino and the site. Prior to 1850, according to a report from the San
Francisco Estuary Institute (SFEI), 80 percent of all the trees in Cupertino were oak trees. Oaks defined the place. Most of
the oak trees were valley oaks, the largest and longest-lived of North American oak trees and endemic to California. More
recently, the site was The Oaks Shopping Center.
Each 6’ long bench features a curved 4 ½’ to 5’ high back that included a leaf shape design of a different oak that is native
to Northern California. The five benches will be made of steel with Ipe wood seating with the overall design relating to
the Mission Revival architecture of the building. They will adhere to ADA bench requirements with the seat 18” high and
22” deep, and will be bolted to the concrete. All finishes will be durable, easy to maintain, and resilient to the
environment. The steel will be primed and painted in earth tones, mimicking a natural patina and the wood will be
smooth with natural edges. Both the steel and wood will have protective coatings.
The benches will serve as a draw for the retail, enhance the front of the building’s aesthetics, and provide places of respite
for both residents and visitors.

Arroyo Village Artists’ Bio & Past Work
Reed and Madden are award-winning sculptors who specialize in site-specific artwork
for public environments. Their artwork is about creating the genius loci (spirit of the
place) with elegant forms that tell a story about the uniqueness of the site. They make
iconic sculptures that promote community pride. Artistically, the couple combines
restrained elegance with playfulness – often using the movement of wind, light and
water to evoke natural phenomena. They work primarily with stainless steel, bronze,
concrete and programmable L.E.D. lights.
Reed and Madden have a metal shop in Richmond, California. They are trained as
architects and landscape architects and are licensed contractors. They have extensive
experience collaborating with multiple city agencies and other professionals to get
public art permitted and installed. Reed and Madden have completed more than two
dozen large-scale outdoor sculptures for cities across the country.

KALEIDOSCOPE DREAMS, Reed and Madden, Arroyo Village
CONCEPT:
In Reed and Madden’s Kaleidoscope Dreams, a human figure appears to be daydreaming encircled by a butterfly kaleidoscope
(Butterflies flying in a group are often referred to as a kaleidoscope, due to their many beautiful colors). Their head is filled with
monarch images, their body leans back in upward exuberance. The twelve butterflies in their dream are supported by swirling tubes
creating a dappled shade structure for the plaza below. Benches echo the geometry above and of the plaza inviting community
seating. LED solar puck-lights, requiring no electricity, are mounted between the butterfly’s wings, creating a magical glowing
atmosphere at night.
ARTISTS’ GOALS:
• An iconic sculpture for the plaza that draws people to it and connects to the surrounding butterfly garden.
• Joy and light for the park both day and night.
• Timeless sculpture made of enduring materials that appeals to a wide audience.
• Sense of wonder by adding color, shadows, and lighting year-round.
• Seating that offers both shade and sun depending on the weather.
MATERIALS + CONSTRUCTION METHODS:
• SEATS: Reinforced concrete of a custom light beige with a slightly textured surface that deters skateboarders but is still
comfortable for sitting. Interior of seating will be stainless steel that will include laser cut lyrical text and welded-on
skateboard deterrents. The outside convex shapes discourage skateboarders as they fall off the curve. The seating heights will
be a uniform 18” in height, with plenty of room for wheelchairs between and beside benches.
• ARBOR: The human-form column that supports the kaleidoscope of butterflies is made up of heavy stainless pipe, patinated
bronze. The arbor is 23-feet long, 13-feet tall, and 15-feet deep.
• BUTTERFLIES: The twelve butterfly-sculptures are made of laser-cut stainless-steel (12 gauge) of varying shapes and sizes,
40”-60” in diameter. Each butterfly will be rolled to form four individual wings at varying states of flight. Areas of color will
be achieved with dichroic glass. LED Solar puck lights are mounted between each butterfly’s wings.
MAINTENANCE:
The sculpture is made entirely of stainless-steel and should last indefinitely. The bronze-patinated human form and the stainless-
steel butterflies should be waxed every-other year to maintain the finishes. Glass and painted surfaces hosed yearly to eliminate dust.
Only the LED up- lights will eventually need replacing. Their life-expectancy is 10 years.
SAFETY AND LIABILITY:
The lowest portion of the kaleidoscope is over 10’ above ground, deterring climbing. There are no sharp edges to any part of the
sculpture.

Meeting: January 22, 2024
Subject
Discuss City Council Work Program Items for 2024
Recommended Action
Recommend City Council Work Program Items for 2024
Reasons for Recommendation
On April 4, 2023, the City Council approved the FY 2023-2025 City Work Program,
which included a total of 24 projects. Due to budget constraints, the City Council
approved funding for 15 of the 24 projects for FY 2023-2024, while the remaining nine
were placed on hold. Attachment A includes details on the adopted 24 projects.
The City Council will be reevaluating all City Work Program items in early Spring 2024.
Staff is requesting that all Commissions review existing work program items and
propose up to three items for Council to consider. These items can be from the nine
items that are currently on hold, listed in Attachment A. They can also be from the other
items that were not selected during the prioritization process, listed in Attachment B.
Commissions can also vote to propose new items as long as they fit the following
criteria:
Timelines are finite in nature, with an expectation of completion within the next
1-2 fiscal years.
Items are not duplicated in other efforts/programs like Capital Improvement
Program (CIP) projects, General Plan, Climate Action Plan, etc.
Items are not part of general City operations.
Items fit into at least one of the five Council approved Goals (Public
Engagement and Transparency, Transportation, Housing, Sustainability &
Fiscal Strategy, Quality of Life).
Items fit within the Commission’s scope outlined in the Cupertino Municipal
Code.
All proposals must be submitted using Attachment C. These proposals will be
consolidated and submitted for Council consideration in early spring.
Sustainability Impact
58
No impact.
Fiscal Impact
Commissioners should keep the City’s budget in mind when proposing new items for
Council consideration.
