As a fundraiser, the added cost to remove the benches for their repair and replacement adds too much cost, along with acquiring auto insurance. We want to thank you for your time and energy. We hope we can develop another project in the future that will meet all of our needs and concerns to benefit our City and its youth. Thank you. a&Behinan, C airman Q PALM s l� City of Palm Springs ll N M1r�a�Ol Ai l01°'� M Office of the City Manager 3200 Taloqu¢z Canyon Way • Palm Springs,California 92262 q�I FO RN TEL.(760)323-8201 • FAX:(760)323-8207 •TDD (760)864-9527 December 12, 2002 Jayne Behman 1000 North Palm Canyon Drive, Unit 2 Palm Springs, CA 92262 Dear Ms. ehmant'� As you know, on November 26`h, the City Council approved a minute order authorizing staff to finalize an agreement, in a form acceptable to the City Attorney, with Desert Fine Arts Academy for the creation of, public bench art program in the Central Business District. Enclosed please find a revised agreement for commission of temporary public art work. This agreement, which was prepared by the City Attorney's Office, reflects the changes that we discussed, including substituting Desert Fine Arts Academy for the Desert Academy of the Arts and modifying the exhibition time period to properly reflect the new execution date of this agreement. In addition,,the City Attorney's office has made a number of other changes. For your convenience, I have also enclosed a redline version of the agreement showing the changes that have been made. Please review this document carefully. If it is acceptable, please sign and return the four (4) clean copies of the agreement to me. Once your signed copies have been received I will submit them to the City Clerk's Office for processing. A fully executed copy will be forwarded to you for your records. When you return the four (4) signed agreements, I would also like to request that you provide a map or list reflecting the location of all public benches that will be used in the performance of this agreement. This map or list will be made part of the agreement under Exhibit B. I realize that the process has taken a little more time than we expected,but I believe that we are very close to finalizing this agreement. It is my hope that over the next hvo weeks we can "wrap things up" (no pun intended) so you can start your project in early January. Should you have any questions regarding the aforementioned agreement, please contact me. Sincerely, y L.
