2 <br />such as Armco, USC Corporation (Pittsburgh, PA); Coca-Cola Corporation, Georgia Pacific, <br />G.T.E., Ingersol Rand Corporation Int'l., MCI, US Air Corp. (Atlanta, Georgia); City of Armerang <br />(Armerang, Austria); Hyatt Hotel (San Juan, Puerto Rico); River Front Properties (Chicago, IL); <br />R.J.

Mr. Trapp has visited the site (as one of the 3 finalists) and concurs <br />with this placement on a mutually-agreed upon space close to the building. The Committee <br />members and staff have also conferred with Mr. Trapp, and it is agreed that his piece will work <br />well with the existing art piece already located on the Homestead Road side of the Seymour <br />Center. NOTE: The existing outdoor public art piece was not a project of the Arts Commission. <br />FINANCIAL IMPACT: The total project budget of $10,000 comes from $5,000 allocated by the <br />BOCC in the FY08 CIP and $5,000 in matching funds from the Friends of the Seymour Center. <br />RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board authorize the Manager to <br />sign the Seymour Center Public Art agreement with artist Wayne Trapp contingent upon final <br />review by staff and the County Attorney. <br />
