SECTION 3 Title 2, Chapter 2.18.110 of the Carlsbad Municipal Code is amended to read as follows: 2.18.110 Appropriations for arts. (a) All city departments shall include in all estimates of necessary expenditures and all requests for authorizations or appropriations for construction projects, an amount for works of art equal to at least one percent ofthe total cost of any such construction project as estimated in the city's capital improvement program for the year in which such estimate or request is made. If there are legal restrictions on the source of funding with respect to any particular project which precludes art as an object of expenditure of funds, the amount of funds so restricted shall be excluded from the total project cost in making the required estimate. (b) The city council may make appropriations for works of art in connection with construction projects as provided in this chapter (c) Construction project means any ofthe following: (1) Construction, reconstruction, or renovation in excess of $500,000, involving any publicly owned, leased, or operated facility including any plant, building, structure, utility system, real property, streets and highways, or other public work improvement. (2) Street or streetscape improvement projects other than street repair or reconstruction. In the case of streetscape and right-of-way enhancement projects, streetscape means an improvement to a public right-of-way, including a sidewalk, tree, light fixture, sign, and furniture. Some funding sources (e.g., sources restricted to "transportation purposes" or "direct construction costs") may prohibit formula-based expenditures for art. Thus, percent for art will not be collected from those sources. However, City Council may provide funding for public art for street or streetscape improvements from general fund revenues on a case by case basis. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 (3) In the case of a publicly owned utility system, capital improvement project shall include only the construction, erection, improvement, of dams, reservoirs and power plants.
