Body

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

1.  The King County council established the cultural development authority of King County in 2002 by adopting Ordinance 14482 in order to continue support for cultural resources, including arts, heritage, historic preservation and public art.

2.  The purpose of supporting cultural resources, according to Ordinance 14482, is to create a vibrant cultural community that enhances King County's livability and reputation as a national and international cultural center.

3.  The cultural development authority of King County, known as 4Culture, makes the region vibrant by administering and supports programs for King County's arts, heritage, preservation and public art.

4.  4Culture's work includes:  funding individual artists, artist groups and arts organizations that provide access to art experiences for all King County residents and visitors; helping communities recognize, preserve and explore our shared heritage; supporting the preservation of historic places that give King County its character; and commissioning and collecting for the King County Public Art Collection, bringing artists' thinking to the shared spaces and offering consulting to the region.

5.  4Culture provides annual arts and heritage grants to over four hundred individuals and organizations in King County, putting public resources to use all over King County.

6.  The 4Culture board, executive director, staff and advisory committees have demonstrated a commitment to addressing racial, geographic and income-related funding inequities and creating an environment in which all King County residents participate actively in cultural opportunities.

7.  In May 2011, the Washington state Legislature passed ESSB 5834, which guaranteed that lodging taxes would fund King County cultural programs for the long-term by allocating 37.5 percent of lodging taxes beginning in 2021 for arts and culture.

8.  The King County council has determined that public funding for cultural programs necessitates greater oversight and accountability to the public.  To increase oversight and accountability, the council wishes to have the opportunity to annually review and accept the cultural development authority's budget while maintaining the authority's existing ability to implement grant awards, projects and programs independently.

9.  To inform the council in its oversight and accountability responsibilities of public funding for cultural programs the council would benefit from a community stakeholder process that would assess and evaluate 4Culture's governance structure, processes and practices, including but not limited to its grant award processes, through an equity and social justice lens.  The King County council has determined that a task force should conduct the community stakeholder process and the task force should use the results of the assessment and evaluation to make a report of recommendations to 4Culture's practices, governance and oversight structure to promote geographic, social and racial equity in the allocation of funding and to promote development of cultural infrastructure across King County to improve accessibility to both patrons and practitioners of arts, cultural, heritage and historic preservation programming countywide.

                     A.  All capital improvement projects that are publicly accessible and visible, or for which there is a need for mitigation, shall contribute to the county's public art program.

                       1.  The amount of the annual appropriation for public art shall be equal to one percent of the eligible project costs of those capital improvement projects that meet the criteria of public visibility and accessibility or need for mitigation.  For the purposes of calculation, eligible project categories shall include capital improvement program projects for new construction, reconstruction or remodeling of buildings, parks and trails, commemorative structures, pedestrian and vehicular bridges, surface water management projects, wastewater treatment projects, transit facility construction projects and solid waste transfer stations.

                       2.  The following project categories shall be considered ineligible and may be excluded from the public art program calculation base:  roads; airport runways; sewers; and solid waste landfills.  This ineligibility shall not preclude a client department, in cooperation with the cultural development authority, from proposing a public art project for a road, airport runway, sewer or solid waste landfill project that presents an opportunity for the inclusion of public art.

                       3.  At a minimum, the amount budgeted for public art in a capital improvement project shall be equal to one percent of the following project elements:  conceptual design, design, contracted design, preliminary engineering, construction, contingency, county force design and project administration and construction engineering.  Costs associated with the predesign phase of the county's capital planning projects meeting the above criteria and anticipated to result in construction, shall be included in the calculation for public art.

                       4.  The following project elements may be excluded from the budget calculation for public art:  acquisition equipment and furnishings; and county force acquisition.  Asbestos abatement may also be excluded from the budget calculation for art when the costs for asbestos abatement have been calculated and a line item budgeted for asbestos abatement as been established within the project budget.

The executive's budget representative shall confirm the calculations with the cultural development authority and include the agreed-upon appropriations for public art in the executive's proposed budget.  The amounts budgeted for public art in particular projects may be adjusted to reflect council changes to the county capital improvement program budget or supplemental budgets.  The appropriation for public art shall be transferred to the arts and cultural development fund and from there to the cultural development authority as soon as the appropriation is made for the capital improvement project, and as soon as funds are available, except as otherwise provided in K.C.C. 2.49.170.

In this case, the revenue shall be excluded from the eligible project costs on which the one percent calculation for art is based.

                     D.  A policy is hereby established to direct the pooling of all public art program revenues on a departmental basis.  Interest generated by public art revenues shall not be pooled on a departmental basis.  However, interest from all revenues shall be pooled collectively and used for the purposes established in this section.

                     Pooling affords the opportunity to look at the needs of the county as a whole and use the public art revenues only in those projects that may have the greatest impact on communities or offer the best opportunities for artist involvement.  Pooling on a departmental basis affords the opportunity for the cultural development authority and client departments to work collaboratively on projects that reflect the missions and goals of individual departments and to ensure that public art projects are adequately funded.  The decision regarding capital improvement projects that will include a public art project shall be determined jointly by the cultural development authority and the client department according to the procedures and criteria in this section and K.C.C. 2.46.150.
