Name Maija was misspelled as Maiya end in one location(Karat). With those modifications Frank Sedzielarz made a motion to approve, seconded by Kara Ruwart, to approve the minutes with amendments suggested. The motion passed 5-0. New Business Updates from Commissioners Sedzielarz and Collins on Research of Kinetic Art Chair Collins apologized as he had not had an opportunity yet to complete his homework on this item. Kara Ruwart indicated that some of what she has learned is that some Kinetic Art stops moving after a couple years. Collins agreed that there are aspects of Kinetic that required ongoing attention. 3 Jufn!2/ Public Arts Commission Minutes Page 2 Meeting 2/27/2025 Maija Sedzielarz indicated that she had had good discussions with Eileen Cohen, the Exhibitions Coordinator at Silverwood Park, and Wendy DePaolis, M.A., Curator Art and Sculpture, MN Landscape Arboretum, and Jim Clark, Visual Arts Manager Visual Arts Programs, including gallery exhibitions, ArtStreet public art program, artist engagement and development. She also has a special interest in Hutchinson as that is where she is from originally and she provided information on the Hutchinson Art Stroll in the materials provided to the Commission. A question was raised regarding the location of the art in Hutchinson, all in their downtown? Commissioner Sedzielarz indicated that it is in several areas in Hutchinson and there is a map in the materials provided. Scott Hickok indicated that Hutchinson has a great urban campground along the river and one of the artistic things they did beyond sculpture in the campground for all to enjoy, they have a grove of trees with a trail through it. In the grove, each tree was donated by a family that sponsored a foreign exchange student. By the tree was a bronze plaque with the sponsor families name, exchange students name and their Country of origin, along with their year of visit. A general discussion ensued regarding art generally, what type of art, permanent, temporary, stipends to artists, amount of money or price for typical stipends for a city. A question of is the art for sale, is there a price posted on the art itself if someone is interested in purchasing? In many cases of cities studied that is the case. Isaac Kidder Proposal Discussion Commissioner Sedzielarz indicated that in her research and discussion with Silverwood Park staff, Eileen introduced her to the topic of a sculptor who had contacted them about a proposal he is preparing to submit. Sedzielarz has not met Mr. Kidder. Silverwood is not able to commit to being a site for his project, but thought Fridley might be interested. He sent me the proposal, timeline, and comments which I sent to Scott and now have been distributed. Scott Hickok admitted to being a bit confused at first as to whether Mr. Kidder might be thinking of Commons Park for his piece. piece for the Civic Campus. A general discussion ensued regarding permanent vs. temporary, anchoring, location potential, etc. Commissioner Miaja S. indicated that both she and the City had sent letters of support after informal if he gets one or both grants he is applying for. The second grant award will be in July 2025. Commissioner Osterbauer indicated it would be difficult not to accept a piece of art where the artist is seeking the funding through grants, and he simply needs a host City to place the sculpture. Scott Hickok indicated that there was some reference in the artists proposal to future negotiations between himself and the City on some costs associated with placement, etc. The Commission concluded that we would learn more as we discover what funding was granted. 4 Jufn!2/ Public Arts Commission Minutes Page 3 Meeting 2/27/2025 Rice Creek Watershed District, Kendra Sommerfeld Offer to Fund Additional Art Scott Hickok indicated that On January 28, 2025, Kendra Sommerfeld of the Rice Creek Watershed District contacted the City indicating that the District wanted to reach out with another art opportunity. They noticed Commons Park in Fridley is beginning the new renovations and just got an additional permit approval from the District. They would be open to discussing another art project at that park if you and the art committee are interested. There are some stormwater features there and native plantings, so there could be a fun way of bringing those aspects together. Scott Hickok indicated that the had a discussion with Mike Maher, Director of Parks and Recreation regarding the potential for another piece of art in Commons Park. Hickok indicated he was appreciative of the offer and said there could be additional opportunity. It was left in that discussion that we could discuss as a Commission and come back to a Commons Park discussion if the Commission elected to do so. The Commission discussed and reviewed the proposal. The Commission suggested that their preference would be to let Ms. Sommerfeld and the District know we appreciate the offer though one sculpture will be present funded by the Fridley Creative Arts Foundation a second piece of art is certainly a possibility. The Commission expressed that they would love to have a Watershed District funded piece in Locke Park somewhere near the creek to emphasize the creek and its importance to the City and the region. SPECIAL GUEST - Makilyn Koep, Rum River Art Center Makilyn Koep, Executive Director of the Rum River Art Center and Emily Robinson who will be the Creative Arts Director for the Fridley Rumriver Art Center location were guests to discuss plans for the th Fridley location at 110 77 Way NE. Makilyn indicated that the Center is thrilled to have the opportunity to part of the Fridley art scene. She introduced herself. She has a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Iowa State University and a Master of Art Education from the University of Minnesota. Emily Robinson introduced herself as well and indicated that she has a love of art and a background in both teaching and Human Resources, which was her College Degree and her focus for many years. She is now coming back to her first love which is art. She is a potter and loves clay as a medium but loves all other art mediums as well. Their excitement about the Fridley building is that it expands their opportunity to bring art to the community. Not only can they expand their audience, but they can provide classes for individuals with special needs. Their facility in Anoka is not as conducive for accessibility needs as it is an older building with many floors and levels. After Board members introduced themselves, to Emily and Makilyn, Scott Hickok shared the Architectural drawings of what is proposed for floor plan and accessibility improvements. A general discussion ensued once Makilyn defined their move in time as June 1, 2025. 5 Jufn!2/ Public Arts Commission Minutes Page 4 Meeting 2/27/2025 Types of classes, fund raising, and a Gala on March 7, 2025, were topics of the general discussion. The parking east of the Art Center was also discussed as possibility for overflow at the Center for events. Scott Hickok committed to providing the contact information for Makilyn to make contact for the answer on overflow parking. Council member Bolkcom invited Makilyn and Emily to the February 10 Council Meeting to advertise th their Gala on March 7 and their coming to Fridley in June. Scott Hickok also mentioned that the at-grade crossing for crossing the rail will likely close in the future in exchange for permission to put a bridge over the railroad tracks from East River Road to The Fridley Market. Old Business Discussion of Resolution 2025-11, public art and authorizing the Commission to advance in its efforts to find, select, and recommend their selection for the artist and art for the area selected in Commons Park.

Mr. Halil and friends of Nathan Sheferaw would like to commission a memorial to their friend who attended does murals, who would like to either provide a mural on the Court surface, or near the court to honor Mr. Sheferaw. At the time of the request the City did not have a policy in place that would address a situation where individuals would like to gift a memorial to a friend and have that memorial be in a Public place. Afterthat request of the Commission, a draft document was prepared to address therequest and provide policy guidance that would play a universal/consistent role in guiding future requests. The policy is in draft form as it has not been approved by the City Council. Staff recommends that the Commission review the draft policy documentand make edit recommendations as appropriate. Once the Commission is comfortable with the language, we will share the language with the Park and Recreation Commission, solicit its input and then take the item to Council for their approval. Once approvedwe will provide the document to Mr. Halil and his team, they will have guidelines to proceed. Financial Impact Absorbed Recommendation Staff recommends the Commission review the draft policy and recommend modifications as appropriate.

Stat. § 465.03, cities are permitted to accept gifts of real or personal property for the benefit of their residents. This Policy establishes consistent guidelines for naming or renaming City of Fridley (City) owned facilities, buildings, rooms, parks, and other assets in recognition of such gifts. This Policy is intended to: 1. Encourage donations and generate public funds to support City projects and initiatives by providing naming rights opportunities for new developments and redevelopment projects. 2. Ensure that the naming of City property is appropriate, meaningful, and aligned with the City's mission, history, and natural features. 3. Create names that are unique, identifiable, inclusive, and respectful of all people and cultures. 4. Establish a transparent and equitable process for considering and approving naming proposals, whether initiated by the City, community stakeholders, or potential donors. 5. Provide a framework for recognizing significant contributions to the City, while balancing the potential benefits of naming rights with the need to maintain public trust and the City's autonomy in decision-making. 6. Provide clear guidelines on what can be accepted and what is ineligible for naming rights, preserving the integrity of established city properties. This Policy applies to all City-owned facilities, including but not limited to buildings and structures, parks and recreational areas, rooms and interior spaces, streets and bridges, and other City assets. It sets forth the criteria, processes, and safeguards necessary to ensure that naming decisions are made in the best interest of the City and its residents. Naming rights will be considered for individuals, families, organizations, corporations or those that have made significant contributions to the City, either through financial support or exceptional service (donor). Corporate names may be considered, but product names will not be accepted. In cases where a corporation name is synonymous with its product, exceptions may be made, provided the product is not an alcoholic beverage, tobacco product, or firearm (ex. Coca Cola would be acceptable; Winchester would not.) 16 Jufn!4/ If a commercial entity makes a donation, efforts will be made not to name any subpart or portions of the named facility for a commercial competitor, but this cannot be guaranteed. Social or service clubs are not included in this restriction. A donor who wishes to use a name that is not their own, will need permission from the individual, the individual's estate, the organization, corporation or to explain the connection between the donor and the name. No naming rights will be given to: Paramilitary or revolutionary groups Criminal or infamous people, companies, events, places or organizations Whimsical or nonsensical groups, real or imagined Naming rights will generally not be given to the following, unless an exception is made by the Fridley City Council (Council): Political parties Religious organizations Fictional characters Ethnic, cultural or tribal groups Social or service clubs that do not serve the Twin Cities Metro area General Criteria for Donations and Recognition Building and facility ownership will be retained by the City regardless of the value of the donation, or how the donation compares to the value of the building or facility. When a building or a facility is named on behalf of an individual, families, organizations, corporations, the donor will receive a suitable sign, label or plaque of the object briefly explaining the donation, if necessary; the ability to provide or create news regarding the donation; the right that all meetings, classes or functions to be held in the building or facility will be so labeled (i.e., ; and any other passive benefit derived from the goodwill and generosity of making the donation. The City retains the right to use photographs or representations of the donation or the facility in advertising, public relations or other promotional materials. The donor will NOT gain an exclusive or even preferential ability to use the named building or facility nor any other facility owned by the City. Nor will the donor receive free or reduced priced tickets or admissions, or the ability to obtain tickets or admissions in a preferential manner, to any event that is held or scheduled in the facility. Except for the rare provision below, the term of the naming right will be for the lifetime usefulness of whatever building or facility receives the name. It will be up to the City to determine what that lifetime usefulness is. 17 Jufn!4/ In the case of natural disaster or destruction, a destroyed building or facility that is insured and is to be rebuilt in a nearly identical manner, will be renamed with the donor's name. However, if the lifetime usefulness of the building or facility was nearly up at the time of the disaster, a different or replacement building may be built instead and may carry another name. It will be the City sole discretion of whether to choose to rebuild a building or facility. The following levels serve as guidelines and may be adjusted based on the specific asset, location, and current market conditions. All final decisions are subject to the Council approval. Major Facilities: o Criteria: Substantial donations that significantly contribute to the construction, renovation, or long-term operation of major city facilities. o Examples: Entire buildings, large parks, sports complexes o Suggested donation threshold: 50% or more of the facility's construction or renovation cost. o Suggested duration threshold: 30 years Significant Spaces: o Criteria: Donations that fund the development, enhancement or long-term maintenance of significant spaces within larger facilities or moderate-sized standalone features. o Examples: Auditoriums, large rooms, park pavilions, specialized facilities, medium- sized park features o Suggested donation threshold: 25-49% of the space's construction, renovation or maintenance cost. o Suggested duration threshold: 15 years Minor Spaces and Features: o Criteria: Donations that support smaller spaces or features within city facilities or parks. o Examples: Small rooms, minor facilities, park amenities. o Suggested donation threshold: 10-24% of the feature's cost. o Suggested duration threshold: 10 years Individual Elements: o Criteria: Donations for specific items that enhance City spaces. o Examples: Trees, benches, picnic tables, bike racks o Special considerations: Items must meet City standards for quality and design Placement will be determined in collaboration with relevant City staff Additional mementos or personal items are not permitted at the site 18 Jufn!4/ o Donation amount: Full cost of the item plus a maintenance fund contribution paid in advance. o Suggested duration threshold: For the lifetime of the asset, estimated at 20 years Recognition Opportunities: o Criteria: Smaller donations that contribute to overall facility or program support. o Examples: Recognition walls, digital displays, engraved pavers or bricks. See Recognition Wall Guidelines. o Donation amount: Varies based on the specific recognition opportunity. Specialized Naming Rights: o Criteria: Ongoing support for programs, events, or services. o Examples: Educational programs, lecture series, annual events or festivals o Donation amount: To be determined based on the scope and duration of the program or event. Recognition Wall Guidelines Recognition walls may be used to acknowledge significant contributions to major projects or ongoing support of City facilities and programs. Contributions recognized may include: Financial contributions above a threshold determined by the specific project Significant in-kind contributions Extraordinary volunteer efforts Key roles in project approval or implementation Recognition will be limited to proper names of the donor. Personal messages (e.g., "In memory of", "In honor of") will not be included on recognition walls. Recognition may be organized into tiers based on level of contribution. The City reserves the right to determine specific location, design of recognition elements and the final wording and layout of all recognition elements. In efforts to preserve continuity in the City, renaming of facilities is strongly discouraged and will only be considered under specific circumstances. City Initiated Name Change or Removal: The City reserves the right to remove or change a name if: The terms of a donation agreement are not fulfilled. 19 Jufn!4/ The name becomes associated with values contrary to the City's mission and principles. The name becomes infamous, villainous, or ridiculous over time (e.g., Enron). Other exceptional circumstances arise, as determined by the City Council. Name removal process: Requires a resolution by the Council. No return of donation or refund will be given. Any decision to remove or change a name must be approved by the Council. In cases where a name is removed or changed, the City will make efforts to preserve the historical record of the original naming. Donor Initiated Name Change or Removal: In the event that a donor requests a name change (e.g., due to corporate rebranding, the original donor merges with or is acquired by another entity, etc.) or removal: 1. The Council will review the situation and may, at its discretion: a) Retain the original name for historical continuity. b) Update the name to reflect the donor's new name, provided it aligns with the City's naming policy criteria. c) Negotiate a new agreement with the successor entity. d) Remove the name if the new name or entity no longer aligns with the City's values or the original intent of the naming. 2. Any costs associated with updating signage or materials due to a donor's name change will be the responsibility of the donor or successor entity. 3. The City reserves the right to terminate the naming agreement if the name change or merger results in a conflict with the City's values or other naming rights agreements. All donor naming rights shall be confirmed through a binding contract that specifies: The amount of the donation The exact name to be used The duration of the naming right Any terms for maintenance or future renovations Conditions under which the name may be terminated Upon execution of the contract, the building or facility will be considered no longer available to other people or groups. Final naming approval will be made upon receipt of the donation and approval by the Council if applicable. 20 Jufn!4/ Donor agreements should include a clause addressing potential conflicts of interest. For corporate donors, agreements should include a term limit for the naming rights. Naming proposals can be initiated in three different ways: 1. City-Initiated Proposals: The City Manager and/or the Council may put out a request for funding a specific development or cause. In this case, the naming rights are offered as part of a broader fundraising initiative for a City project. 2. Community-Initiated Proposals: A community organization, foundation, or individual may initiate a naming proposal for a new or existing development. This allows community stakeholders to propose names that they believe would be meaningful or beneficial to the community. 3. Donor-Initiated Proposals: An individual, organization, or corporation may approach the City with a substantial donation and a request for naming rights. These proposals are typically unsolicited and may be for existing facilities or future developments. Regardless of how a proposal is initiated, the following process applies: All naming proposals must be submitted in writing to the City Manager or their designee. The proposal will be reviewed by the City Manager or their designee. The City Manager or their designee will make a recommendation to the City Council. The Council has final approval of all naming rights. The Council retains authority over all aspects of this Policy. This includes, but is not limited to: The right to accept or decline any donation, regardless of value. The authority to approve or deny any naming proposal. The power to make exceptions to any part of this Policy. The ability to terminate or change any previously approved naming right. All decisions made by the Council regarding naming rights are final. 21 Jufn!4/ This Policy shall be effective immediately upon approval by the Council. The Policy shall be reviewed every five years to ensure it remains relevant and effective. Any amendments to this Policy must be approved by the Council.
