PERCENT FOR THE ARTS/PUBLIC ART PROGRAM
A FUNDING MECHANISM
A strong public arts program calls for a reliable, predictable, funding
mechanism. 'For a number of years, the city has struggled with this issue and
to date has funded cultural services through a General Fund allocation. To
alleviate the draw of the General Fund revenue, staff has reviewed various
funding models that could be applicable to the city in its efforts to promote
cultural development. Following a twenty-year national trend in financing
community cultural programs and the enhancement of the urban landscape, the
Arts & Cultural Affairs Division of the Community Services Department
recommends the consideration of a One Percent for the Arts program. This
proposed financing mechanism, used in numerous cities in one form or another,
would generate substantial revenue. The program would provide for quality
visual improvement to the urban setting through the installation of major
works of art within private and public development as well as at designated
public open spaces, i.e., parks, public plazas, etc. Equally important, the
program would establish a special Municipal Arts Trust Fund that would permit
the delivery of a variety of cultural services to the residents of Huntington
Beach. Funds would also become available to assist the city with the
development of art-specific facilities, as well as historic preservation
efforts.
Private Development
The proposal recommends a fee of one percent be levied on private
development of projects over $1 million dollars in value, excluding single
family residences. The one percent generated from the project would be
allocated for the installation of a major work of art on-site or a variety of
year-round cultural activities. The developer would also have the option of
contributing the entire allocation to the Municipal Arts Trust Fund. In this
case, the levied fee would be discounted at eighty percent.
Public Capital Improvement Projects
It is proposed that the city allocate one percent from all its capital
improvement projects. Of this one percent allocation, up to sixty percent
could be spent with on-site qualitative improvements, such as installation of
original works of art in the lobby or sculpture and murals outdoors of public
facilities or open spaces. The remaining forty percent of the allocation of the
one percent would be placed into the Municipal Arts Trust Fund, or Council
could choose to designate the full one percent to the Municipal Arts Trust
Fund. Projects protected by federal, state, county or local ordinances would
be excluded.
Fiscal Impact
The 1% would be calculated on the total project costs at the time the permit
is issued. It would not include consultant and design fees; property acquisition;
demolition; furniture, fixtures and equipment of standard manufacture;
PERCENT FOR THE ARTS/PUBLIC ART PROGRAM Page 2
A FUNDING MECHANISM
financing costs; or street and sewer improvements. Project administration and
maintenance costs of private sector projects would be the responsibility of the
property owner.
Private Sector Projects
The breakdown for private sector projects would be allocated as follows:
1% of $5 Million Dollar Project = $509000
Full 100% allocation to Art
Project, mural, sculpture,
furniture, original landscape
design = $5 0,000
or discounted in lieu of
contribution to Municipal Arts
Fund at .80% _ $409000
Public Sector Projects
The breakdown for public sector projects would be allocated as follows:
1% of $5 Million Dollar Project =$50,000
.60% for Art Project = 30,000
.30% for Municipal Art Fund = 15,000
.10% for Administration/
Conservation Endowment = 5,000
Revenue Projections
With $50 million dollars of private sector construction, an estimated $500,000
would be designated by the developers for the installation of major works of
art within their respective projects. A substantial portion of the $500,000
(perhaps $200,000 or more) could be contributed to the city's Municipal Arts
Trust Fund.
With $36 million dollars of city/public sector projects (of which, perhaps 50%
qualifying for this program), the city would make available an estimated
$180,000 for the installation of landmark works of art throughout the
community, as well as provide a funding mechanism for various cultural
improvements and programs.
Advantages of the Program
There are obvious advantages to the development of a Percent for the Arts
Program. First, the program would help mitigate the environmental impact of
both private and public construction to the surrounding communities. Second,
the allocation of funds into the Municipal Arts Trust Fund would permit the
PERCENT FOR THE ARTS/PUBLIC ART PROGRAM Page 3
A FUNDING MECHANISM
city to provide a variety of cultural facilities and services to benefit the
community. And third, the program would generate a stronger sense of
community pride and identity through the enhancement of both the urban
landscape and cultural life in the community.
The Public Arts Program and expenditure of monies within the Municipal Arts
Trust Fund would be administered by the Community Services Department
through the Arts & Cultural Affairs Division with City Council approval.
Specific guidelines would direct the expenditure of these funds. A special
ad hoc committee would be established to assist with the site selection and art
work selection for public spaces. The revenue generated by the Percent for
the Arts Program would be fairly predictable and allow for planning future
cultural services, as well as covering administrative costs of the program.
Staff has studied numerous cities throughout the country having Public Arts
Programs funded in part by the Percent for the Arts approach. In each city,
the programs and formulas have reflected the diversity of those communities.
Our recommendation for the City of Huntington Beach takes into
consideration the uniqueness of the city as well as those elements from other
communities that may successfully be applied here.

CELEBRATION PLAZA
The concept of Celebration Plaza evolved from the preparation of an open space plan for
the new downtown village that would encourage pedestrian movement along Main Street
and provide various focal points for public assembly.
As part of the overall plan, it was identified that an "entrance statement" for the
downtown was needed at or near the Main Street Branch Library. This concept was
enhanced by the planned art center across the street from the library. The combination
of facilities indicated that this area would be one of concentrated civic/cultural activities
within the new downtown village and that there would be a need for outdoor spaces to
accommodate a variety of activities.
The plan for Celebration Plaza includes additional hardscape and landscape improvements
around the library, seating areas, signage to introduce the motorist to the downtown area,
flexible space for small performances and gatherings and the installation of a landmark
water feature. The library and plaza will be linked to the art center by common
landscape and hardscape improvements that will also accommodate activities at the art
center (such as opening receptions) to spill out-of-doors.
A particularly special feature of the plaza is the provision of a specimen conifer at the
corner of Main and 6th Streets that will serve as the Official City Christmas Tree.
It is important to note that the parking around the library will be no less than the current
number of spaces and will be in an enhanced configuration to ease the use by library
patrons.
In combination, the art center and library, connected by Celebration Plaza, will also be an
attraction for those visiting the new downtown village and will encourage pedestrian
movement inland through the commercial core.
Celebration Plaza will provide an enhanced environment for the library and art center and
provide a space to commence major civic and cultural activities (such as the Fourth of
July Parade and street festivals) while announcing the entrance to the new downtown.

PERCENT FOR THE ARTS/PUBLIC ART PROGRAM
A FUNDING MECHANISM
A strong public arts program calls for a reliable, predictable, funding
mechanism. For a number of years, the city has struggled with this issue and
to date has funded cultural services through a General Fund allocation. To
alleviate the draw of the General Fund revenue, staff has reviewed various
funding models that could be applicable to the city in its efforts to promote
cultural development. Following a twenty-year national trend in financing
community cultural programs and the enhancement of the urban landscape, the
Arts & Cultural Affairs Division of the Community Services Department
recommends the consideration of a One Percent for the Arts program. This
proposed financing mechanism, used in numerous cities in one form or another,
would generate substantial revenue. The program would provide for quality
visual improvement to the urban setting through the installation of major
works of art within private and public development as well as at designated
public open spaces, i.e., parks, public plazas, etc. Equally important, the
program would establish a special Municipal Arts Trust Fund that would permit
the delivery of a variety of cultural services to the residents of Huntington
Beach. Funds would also become available to assist the city with the
development of art-specific facilities, as well as historic preservation
efforts.
Private Development
The proposal recommends a fee of one percent be levied on private
development of projects over $1 million dollars in value, excluding single
family residences. The one percent generated from the project would be
allocated for the installation of a major work of art on-site or a variety of
year-round cultural activities. The developer would also have the option of
contributing the entire allocation to the Municipal Arts Trust Fund. In this
case, the levied fee would be discounted at eighty percent.
Public Capital Improvement Projects
It is proposed that the city allocate one percent from all its capital
improvement projects. Of this one percent allocation, up to sixty percent
could be spent with on-site qualitative improvements, such as installation of
original works of art in the lobby or sculpture and murals outdoors of public
facilities or open spaces. The remaining forty percent of the allocation of the
one percent would be placed into the Municipal Arts Trust Fund, or Council
could choose to designate the full one percent to the Municipal Arts Trust
Fund. Projects protected by federal, state, county or local ordinances would
be excluded.
Fiscal Impact
The 1% would be calculated on the total project costs at the time the permit
is issued. It would not include consultant and design fees; property acquisition;
demolition; furniture, fixtures and equipment of standard manufacture;
PERCENT FOR THE ARTS/PUBLIC ART PROGRAM Page 2
A FUNDING MECHANISM
financing costs; or street and sewer improvements. Project administration and
maintenance costs of private sector projects would be the responsibility of the
property owner.
Private Sector Projects
The breakdown for private sector projects would be allocated as follows:
1% of $5 Million Dollar Project = $50,000
Full 100% allocation to Art
Project, mural, sculpture,
furniture, original landscape
design = $50,000
or discounted in lieu of
contribution to Municipal Arts
Fund at .80% _ $40,000
Public Sector Projects
The breakdown for public sector projects would be allocated as follows:
1% of $5 Million Dollar Project =$509000
.60% for Art Project = 309000
.30% for Municipal Art Fund = 15,000
.10% for Administration/
Conservation Endowment = 5,000
Revenue Projections
With $50 million dollars of private sector construction, an estimated $500,000
would be designated by the developers for the installation of major works of
art within their respective projects. A substantial portion of the $500,000
(perhaps $200,000 or more) could be contributed to the city's Municipal Arts
Trust Fund.
With $36 million dollars of city/public sector projects (of which, perhaps 50%
qualifying for this program), the city would make available an estimated
$180,000 for the installation of landmark works of art throughout the
community, as well as provide a funding mechanism for various cultural
improvements and programs.
Advantages of the Program
There are obvious advantages to the development of a Percent for the Arts
Program. First, the program would help mitigate the environmental impact of
both private and public construction to the surrounding communities. Second,
the allocation of funds into the Municipal Arts Trust Fund would permit the
r
PERCENT FOR THE ARTS/PUBLIC ART PROGRAM Page 3
A FUNDING MECHANISM
city to provide a variety of cultural facilities and services to benefit the
community. And third, the program would generate a stronger sense of
community pride and identity through the enhancement of both the urban
landscape and cultural life in the community.
The Public Arts Program and expenditure of monies within the Municipal Arts
Trust Fund would be administered by the Community Services Department
through the Arts & Cultural Affairs Division with City Council approval.
Specific guidelines would direct the expenditure of these funds. A special
ad hoc committee would be established to assist with the site selection and art
work selection for public spaces. The revenue generated by the Percent for
the Arts Program would be fairly predictable and allow for planning future
cultural services, as well as covering administrative costs of the program.
Staff has studied numerous cities throughout the country having Public Arts
Programs funded in part by the Percent for the Arts approach. In each city,
the programs and formulas have reflected the diversity of those communities.
Our recommendation for the City of Huntington Beach takes into
consideration the uniqueness of the city as well as those elements from other
communities that may successfully be applied here.

CELEBRATION PLAZA
The concept of Celebration Plaza evolved from the preparation of an open space plan for
the new downtown village that would encourage pedestrian movement along Main Street
and provide various focal points for public assembly.
As part of the overall plan, it was identified that an "entrance statement" for the
downtown was needed at or near the Main Street Branch Library. This concept was
enhanced by the planned art center across the street from the library. The combination
of facilities indicated that this area would be one of concentrated civic/cultural activities
within the new downtown village and that there would be a need for outdoor spaces to
accommodate a variety of activities.
The plan for Celebration Plaza includes additional hardscape and landscape improvements
around the library, seating areas, signage to introduce the motorist to the downtown area,
flexible space for small performances and gatherings and the installation of a landmark
water feature. The library and plaza will be linked to the art center by common
landscape and hardscape improvements that will also accommodate activities at the art
center (such as opening receptions) to spill out-of-doors.
A particularly special feature of the plaza is the provision of a specimen conifer at the
corner of Main and 6th Streets that will serve as the Official City Christmas Tree.
It is important to note that the parking around the library will be no less than the current
number of spaces and will be in an enhanced configuration to ease the use by library
patrons.
In combination, the art center and library, connected by Celebration Plaza, will also be an
.attraction for those visiting the new downtown village and will encourage pedestrian
movement inland through the commercial core.
Celebration Plaza will provide an enhanced environment for the library and art center and
provide a space to commence major civic and cultural activities (such as the Fourth of
July Parade and street festivals) while announcing the entrance to the new downtown.
