Executive Summary Regarding Proposed New Art Program
An innovative custom program for Naples versus a cookie cutter program. Naples changes from
PAAC establishing all elements of selections for art to Naples' residents. The residents' control
over sites and pieces commissioned creates a communal ownership of the total program. Our
total population's decision -making involvement will best balance out biases and tastes within
their program's direction and citizen -owned collection.
A successful program is based on a free and open market. Integrity is everything. The free
market and adhering to all regulations and policies are the best methods for combatting
corruption. Room must be made for variations, which must be open for discussion to all.
Naples -generated "Call to Artists" creates competition, fairness, and best products. This
function and many other clerical functions are contracted through a local PR entity which is not
involved in art. This PR relationship could be shared with the County.
Naples requires two separate and distinct art programs. One for open spaces. Another for
commercial developments. Each necessitates its own set of protocols for regulator control,
selection of sites and pieces, maintenance procedures, documentation related to piece(s), and
funding, etc.
Refocus the program's talents to create generational and communal appreciation plus
knowledge of the arts, centered in societal partaking in selections. Naples can be the most
literate city in the world in this area. This will take decades.
PAAC's role changes to facilitators, with tasks matching citizen volunteers' skill sets. This
realignment of PAAC's skills and tasks should increase citizens' involvement with PAAC. The
main function and effort of PAAC, the PR contractor and City staff is pointed at motivating we
Neapolitans to participate in selecting placement and selection of pieces. Citizen "Ownership"
will be communicated through an interactive Art Program website, within the City's site.
Citizens will be able to interact with all submittals' creators. Don't underestimate the creativity
required for this crucial never-ending task.
Commercial projects' protocols will change. Funding is a direct percent of project. Other areas
will change. I request a meeting with owners and developers to explore alternative plans.
Open sites could remain funded by commercial projects. Or a referendum could be floated to
measure residents' acceptance of property taxes to include art, just like our parks.
Lastly, please study a few regulator adjustments I recommend on page 9.

Naples Proposed Art ProgramAugust 2, 2022Prepared for Naples City Council
This is a discussion of an innovative alternative Naples' City Art Program, where all selections
are determined by Naples' residents.
My views are drawn from my family's interaction with outdoor art for three generations.
have read virtually everything written plus attended many meetings of the Public Art Advisory
Committee (PAAC) regarding Naples' program from 2001 on, including the present proposed
changes to the City's art program.
I was a member of PAAC and worked on PAAC issues. In 2016 one issue was conducting a
survey of local developers and architects as to their feeling regarding the City's public art
program. I wanted to find out why these two groups seldomly interact with PAAC's programs,
since both groups directly and totally fund the program.
Later, I resigned from PAAC. I wanted to make art in place of talking about art. The Naples City
Attorney informed me I could not do both. Doing both was a conflict of interest. The attorney
emphasized the importance of conforming to regulations plus avoiding the mere appearance of
impropriety.
Since resigning, I have devoted my time to creating art, plus involving myself with PAAC in on-
going issues. I have never been paid by the City of Naples for anything. I received one contract
for signage for the new fire station. The contract even though it was signage provided to me by
a Fire Station #1, an architect was reviewed by PAAC even though regulations assign signage to
the Design group. PAAC rejected my signage and changed that signage to be original artwork.
They never informed me of the change nor asked for an original piece.
As corrupt as art has been throughout history, we must keep in mind that the corruption is not
normally the actual piece of art nor the producer of that art. The undesirable issues and
instances almost always fester within the selling, buying and marketing of art.
The solution to this undesirable side of art is identical to every other aspect of life and business.
A successful Naples' art program must focus and commit to a totally free market which is open
to all. None of us would accept a single seller or single broker for any goods or services we
would purchase for ourselves. In my opinion our Naples' Art program has not aligned itself with
a free open market.
All regulations and policies enacted by the City must be adhered to.
Our present program states the implementation of a "Call to Artists", and this net should be
cast as wide as possible. To the best of my knowledge, PAAC has never implemented this basic
competition technique.
A "Call to Artists" is only effective when initiated by the City. The benefits of this policy are
equally shared by all participants within this market. The citizens are positioned to receive the
Page 2 of 9

35.A.2
Naples Proposed Art ProgramAugust 2, 2022Prepared for Naples City Council
best cost and creativity for the product they may purchase. The potential creator of art should
feel Naples' art program is not controlled by a flawed selection process.
Buyers (citizens) and sellers (the artists along with brokers) must be positively motivated. This
is not always the case. Without the proper motivation, the pieces presented will be like cold
oatmeal. All producers save their best for open fair markets.
Producers of art will make themselves keenly aware if Naples' art program is an open market.
The cost to produce a concept into a sales presentation usually equals 10% of a piece's asking
price. Why should producers risk time and capital to propose and produce products which will
never be considered because of a flawed system? Once their design is public, the design risks
being replicated.
Open markets on the supply side force the bar to soar regarding creativity and price. Producers
should flock to little Naples with their products. Naples could become a bastion for artist
expression. This in turn could create additional opportunities for art related
businesses/entertainments.
The City has many of the necessary art regulations and policies already on the books, as they
are with countless other cities. Sadly, in Naples these policies are not always adhered to. This
destroys producers' trust.
Naples requires two separate programs for art.
The first program is for public spaces within the City limits.
The second program is for builders, developers and re -developers of commercial structures
within the city. This program must motivate this group to raise the bar by pushing the envelope
on overall design. Blending original art within the total project's visual statement enhances a
business' architectural branding identification. This group requires a return on investment, and
rightfully so.
Funding, I have changed my position on this point. We need to explore unconnected funding
for public space and commercial projects.
The application process and evaluating protocol must be tailored for public space and
commercial projects' distinctive needs and societal goals of each program.
My principal direction regarding the proposals already presented is narrowing and refining
the mission statement of Naples' art program.
Naples' long-term benefit should reflect a drive to create a practical and knowledgeable art
appreciation society. The drive for art appreciation expands not only a societal art horizon in
and of itself, but all societal thinking. Our thirst for high quality art will accelerate. To me, this
Page 3 of 9
Mike Rogan
Collier County Public Art Committee Materials May 2023
Packet Pg. 639
35.A.2
Naples Proposed Art ProgramAugust 2, 2022Prepared for Naples City Council
redirection will drive our future selection of public pieces. And possibly encourage the
launching of a low carbon footprint industry of designing.
My personal goal for Naples is to be the most literate art community on the planet. This is
attainable. We have the base infrastructure in place, or on our engineers' and architects'
drafting tables. Now we must motivate producers.
It will be difficult for a community of 25,000 to own the largest collection of art. However,
developing one of the world's best -informed cities for artistic expression and appreciation is
well within our reach. Our societal thirst for and evolution of art appreciation should be our
generational goal. This drive will be a metamorphosis of our culture.
My next suggestion for the new program is on structure and areas of involvement regarding
PAAC. I will also touch on actions required by the City Council regarding site, individual piece
selection, etc.
The present requirements to be a member of PAAC as written are beyond the skill set of normal
citizens and members of PAAC. PAAC candidates, as presently defined, must be skilled in
themes for pieces to be acquired, site selection, monetary valuations, criteria for the
acceptable engineering of a piece, acceptable materials employed in the piece, foundation
design and installation, etc. Many of these skills require specific degreed certifications.
Paid consultants can be required. Any consultants hired must adhere to PAAC regulations of
not interacting with anyone or any entity involved in sale or promoting art, nor can they vote
on site selection, the selection of a piece, or a proposed regulation or policy, etc.
City staff may not vote but may render opinions.
As I have observed, at times, both categories of art (art on public space and art on commercial
property) required selection decisions that have caused PAAC an inability to function efficiently
More importantly the latter selections of piece, site for piece, and cost should not be entrusted
in the hands of volunteers. A few volunteers are not even a remotely true representation of
Naples' overall societal tastes. Nor should these selections be in the hands of the City Council.
Both PAAC and City Council hold biases and personal tastes. Even combined, they are too small
a group sampling to generate a conversation which will produce a long-term societal consensus
on selecting the very best art to represent Naples.
In my opinion, the selection of sites, site priorities (which site first), and individual pieces should Q
be in the hands of all Naples' citizens (legal residents). Long-term success and maximized
benefit from this program rests in the hands of "we citizens". Our 25,000 citizens represent all
communal bias and tastes.

Naples Proposed Art ProgramAugust 2, 2022Prepared for Naples City Council
The small size of Naples in my opinion makes this system doable. We need to trust our masses
regarding selections of taxation, disbursements of funds, etc. My logic is likened to that of
Washington, Monroe, Jefferson, and other founders of our country. Trust the citizens.
Once this system is up and running, non -art communal preferences could be measured and
documented, e.g., the total height permitted for the remodeling of our hospital.
PAAC focus should be redirected as established in 2001 by our City Council to be a liaison,
promotor, and facilitator between the City Council and the citizens of Naples regarding art
issues. Other areas of involvement for PAAC will include, but not be limited to, Naples' art
collections' preservation, awareness, education, promotion for our community and visitors'
involvement with our art collection, etc.
Proposed new system for procurement of art on public space.
The program's operational function(s) for PAAC and City's staff interaction(s) in the art
marketplace's paradigm of standard procedures employs Thomas Jefferson's concept of
governmental control over individual(s) an committees' actions. Power is assigned in the
smallest of parts and then over the maximum number of non -overlapping individuals.
PAAC and staff will gather the information required to produce a "call to artists". The actual
mechanics of the "call to artists" will be performed by a yet -to -be determined contractor. This
contractor and staff can have nothing to do with the sales or promotion of art as stated in PAAC
member requirements.
My initial thoughts on this contractor skill set was that of a Public Relationship or PR entity
type. Besides running a "call to artists", the contractor must generate current and future press
releases regarding art. The entity must be a Naples -based firm. The relationship should be
limited to a three- or four-year term so fresh thoughts can be generated. This contractor could
be shared with the County.
PAAC will gather from contractor all submittals generated from each "call to artists". PAAC will
certify all submittals received from contractor, then return submittals to the contractor (or city
staff controlling Naplesgov.com). The contractor, or staff will post all submittals on the City's
Naplesgov.com site in PAAC art area yet to be built. PAAC's area within Naplesgov.com will
display all submittals for a specific location, for the community's viewing, evaluation and voting
for selection, by citizens. Only one "call to arts" specific site is listed at a time. This contractor
should also be capable to host the PAAC website within the City's website.
Each "call to artist" will define a time and date for citizens to discuss the submittals, plus a date
to cast their vote on the site. After the deadline for voting, the contractor will turn that "call to
artist" results to PAAC.
PAAC will form a recommendation and move that "call to artists" selection over to the City
Council, for Council action.

Naples Proposed Art ProgramAugust 2, 2022Prepared for Naples City Council
After a selection has been made and contract issued, PAAC will gather the necessary identifying
information for the piece pedestal. The contractor will update the City's records and PAAC's
website.
PAAC and the contractor will need to focus on techniques to draw citizens to interact with our
selection process. The selection of a contractor will add to professional appearance and effort
necessary to achieving community acceptance and involvement.
The skill sets required for these functions for present and future PAAC members are more
commonly found within in all citizens. The skills are teachable and learnable. If the meetings
and tasks of PAAC volunteers are friendlier and fun, citizen volunteers' involvement and desire
to be involved should increase.
The main goal for PAAC members is communication to sell citizens on being involved in Naples'
art program.
In theory, the more former PAAC members this program generates the more involved our
whole community becomes.
Lastly, I will recommend a few policies and/or regulation changes to better control art and
serve Naples' citizens.
Only one "call to arts" is handled at a time. Each selection must be special in and of itself. We
want maximum community involvement.
Only Naples' citizens will have the right to vote their wishes regarding all aspects of Public Art
on public space.
How do we accomplish this redirected effort in self -governance in art?
A decade ago, implementation of such a system was a dream. Today this technology is
available and somewhat common. Passwords are being replaced with thumb prints, facial and
voice recognition. Naples' small-town population, and in my opinion, mind set makes this
individual citizen interaction a reality.
PAAC develops thru a contractor a PAAC blog anchored within the City's site Naplesgov.com.
Here we display all pieces submitted, the presenters' blogs, locations available etc. The goal is
to foster discussion between citizens regarding art selection. The proposed site would invite
citizens to register, to share opinions, and to vote.
This communal involvement generates "Ownership".

Voting would be validated via face or voice recognition, thumb print, or the best system
available, yet to be determined. This art site's information can be backed up and shared by our
local TV, print media, radio, internet, etc. Media interaction would be the responsibility of the
contractor.
Anyone can present any piece, theme, artist, etc. This should be encouraged. Naples must be a
center for the sharing of free thought.
However, only a resident of Naples can present a specific singular proposal (site(s), theme(s),
etc., and vote to support or not support this or any singular proposal.
This system is unlike any art procurement model I have ever seen.
My proposal's end goal is: Maximize Naples' citizens involvement and ownership of Naples'
Public Outdoor Art Program, especially on public space, to create the highest level of
appreciation for the arts.
The second area of Public Art deals with voluntary involvement with commercial developers
and owners. I feel motivation is the key.
This area has a separate set of challenges. These challenges require an approach unique to
businesses. 2001's program defines placement, etc. I see no issue here. My issues are with the
whole concept of the handling of public art in conjunction with developers' and owners'
projects.
In 2015 when I joined PAAC, I was amazed through PAAC records at the developers', architects'
and owners' attitudes and resistance towards Naples' art program. I first requested permission
to perform a survey of developers' and owners' attitudes towards our art program.
I'd like to take a second survey or meeting on this subject with this group. The 2001 program
and this new proposed program, in my opinion, misses the point. Allowing them to keep some
of their money demanded by the City isn't a solution. This issue needs real motivation.
Funding Commercial Projects
1 % of the total cost of a project is in my mind realistic. Selection of a piece should rest with the
owner.
The ownership of a piece should remain in the hands of the owner. The funding of
maintenance, etc., would rest with the building's owner. This would alleviate some municipal Q
liabilities. This simplifies properties' transfer of ownership and the necessity of municipal
additional regulations. The other PAAC regulations could remain in place.

Funding Open Spaces
I have pondered this issue for years. It always settles in a program where someone else covers
the cost. My proposal is pointed at the "ownership" of the art program by Naples' residents for
open spaces. This led me back to a direct adjustment to our property taxes.
What would the cost be to collect $1,000,000.00 dedicated for an open space art increase from
property taxes? The reality is, I have never asked citizens if they'd like a tax increase.
The public space could be funded on commercial development.
Would freeing up commercial developers from open space funding increase that group's
acceptance and involvement of art regarding commercial structures?
I think the issue of maintenance is over blown. Maintenance costs starts with overall design,
engineering, material selection, and affixing components together.
Art pieces should fall under the normal city maintenance system i.e., parks, round -a -bouts, etc.
A dual system, in my mind, creates redundancies followed by inefficiencies.
Residents will pay for it one way or another. Much work could be done using regular municipal
employees. Some work will require the oversight and/or execution of an individual with my
experience. We acquired one resident who is young, strong, owns specialty tools and is highly
capable in the one-off engineering and fabrication of complex art pieces.
My proposal of total community involvement by citizens is based on all decisions are made by
citizens. This is an effort to have citizens buy into the ownership of communal appearance of
art both long and short term.
I have many other issues with other documents pertaining to the new art program. I feel I've
filled all plates with the above discussion. If my views spur debate on other operational
policies, details can be worked through later.
Once a path is determined, new additional pieces must be one at a time. I fear once the
submittal process is reopened, an immediate flood of pieces could be generated by privileged
insider information. Insider information pits me or others with submittals competing with the
City of Naples.
Proposed policies and/or possible regulations regarding art for our city
1. The proposal presented by the consultant includes the addition of a City employee to
handle the City's art program. I strongly disagree with this recommendation, it's
overkill. If this action is accepted by the City Council regarding art, or any other
program, a regulation should be added to the City's overall governance. This policy or

regulation should state that all individuals who aid in drafting and/or supporting a
proposal requiring an additional employee should be restricted from applying for or
serving in that position for a term of sixty months.
2. All members of PAAC must be citizens of Naples. PAAC deals with issues regarding
expenditures of City tax revenues. PAAC recommends tax increases. Not being a
Naples resident who deals with our art program issues is like running for Mayor and not
being a citizen of Naples. Or, allowing non -Naples' residents to vote in our municipal
elections. PAAC can call for outside testimony and consultants for specific needs.
3. Any proposal for a piece of art's application for approval and acceptance by the City of
Naples must include a sworn statement that the individual producing that piece will or
will not be paid to a broker's commission or fee. The statement must include the
percentage paid to any agent or broker along with the dollar amount. A tracking of
parties involved is just good business.

MURAL GUIDELINES
(in accordance with City of Tybee Island Ordinance 2014-34A
INTRODUCTION
Thank you for your interest in having a decorative mural for your business in the City of Tybee Island. Mural
projects are an investment in cultural capital that goes far beyond tourism, improved aesthetics, increased
business traffic and building occupancy, and eradication of blight. Murals are an investment in a city's unique
identity and its cultural cohesiveness, and contribute to its public art.
To effectively implement a successful mural program, which will ensure consistency and aesthetic value in the
community; it is important that applicants adhere to the following guidelines, which will ensure the best possible
results. The application process and guidelines that follow are intended to provide mural applicants with a
reasonable process that will safeguard the interests of the community, as well as those of the individual property
owner.
Allowance of painted, decorative murals is intended to extend public art into commercial areas of the City of
Tybee Island in order to enhance the cultural experience of the public.
Applications for mural designs on privately -owned commercial buildings in the City of Tybee Island must
be approved by the Development (Dev'I) Authority / Main Street Board of Directors through the Mural Design
Review Application approval process described below.
To make an appointment for reviewing the resource material, mural review for approval, and / or for further
information, please contact the Tybee Island Dev'I Authority / Main Street Executive Director at (912) 472-5071 or
cmorton@cityoftybee.org.
COMMERCIAL BUILDING MURAL PROGRAM GUIDELINES
1) Theme / Design Criteria:
a) Murals on privately -owned buildings must reflect the character, culture and history of the
area/neighborhood. Murals will adhere to creative themes including: vintage / historic Tybee Island
(photos for reference are available through the Tybee Island Historical Society and / or the Dev'I Authority
/ Main Street Office) Tybee beaches / ocean, nature scenes. An emphasis should be reflective of the
specific area /neighborhood.
b) Appropriate thematic and other relationships to the surrounding environment.
c) Appropriateness of scale.
d) No signage or subject matter that could be construed as advertising, copy, symbols or references directly
promoting any product, business, brand, organization, service, cause, or political messages.
2) Site Selection Criteria:
a) The building owner submits a letter of request with proposed mural details to the Dev'I Authority / Main
Street Executive Director for consideration. The request must include the proposed idea or theme; a
photograph of the wall on which the proposed mural will be created; and photographs of the surrounding
area, including structures immediately adjacent to the building. The letter must include proof in writing
that the required private funds and/or in -kind contributions are secured, as well as, a 5-year maintenance
plan.
b) The submittal must include a letter from the property owner (if different from applicant) confirming their
approval of the proposed mural to be on their building and acknowledge they are responsible for upkeep.

3) Planning / Considerations:
a) Once a mural is painted in an outdoor location, it becomes public art. There are a number of factors that
need to be taken into consideration before a mural is started.
b) The artist and the building owner should agree upon the content of the mural with an estimate of the
cost.
c) A written contract should be signed between all parties involved, i.e. artist, building owner or leaser) prior
to work beginning.
d) The contract should designate the lifetime of the mural (three, five, seven or other, agreed upon years)
that the mural will be left undisturbed, after which the mural can be painted over without penalty.
e) Consider the location of the wall in which to attach plywood for the mural to be displayed.
Reasoning for plywood / maintaining the integrity of a building... For historic buildings and districts,
careful consideration of the historic fabric and historic setting should be considered. Murals should
not compromise the character defining features of a historic building or district, as this may
compromise its eligibility for the National Register of Historic Places now and / or in the future. In
some cases, attaching plywood to the exterior of buildings can help protect historic fabric, but can
also cause other preservation issues if not maintained.
f) Investigate the different paints available and strive for the most durable.
g) Determine who will maintain the mural if the work is damaged and / or needs attention.
h) Take into account the surrounding businesses and residents when planning the mural.
4) Mural Making Process:
a) When painting a mural, it is important to choose an appropriate wall and location. Protecting the integrity
of buildings on Tybee Island is of utmost importance; therefore, plywood* must be attached to the
building for the mural to be painted. Water leaks and cracks in the plywood may have adverse effects on
the mural and should also be avoided. Murals, which face direct sunlight during the daytime hours fade
and peel much faster than those which do not get direct sunlight or are protected by overhanging
architecture. Murals located in heavily trafficked areas will be subject to more smog, dirt and chemicals
which may change the colors of the original paint.
b) Before painting, it is highly recommended that the surface be cleaned thoroughly. The cleaner the
surface is, the longer the mural will last. After the surface has been cleaned, a coating such as gesso
should be applied to create a smooth and consistent surface to which the paint can bond. Surface
preparation, materials, paint, and anti -graffiti coating should be compatible with each other as well as
with the surface. Consult manufacturers of products for specific information. One type of paint that may
be used is mineral paint because it bonds extremely well with the wall and should last many years. Paint
should be applied thinly and evenly. Thick layers of paint take longer to dry and tend to peel quickly.
c) It is recommended that a protective anti -graffiti coating be applied to murals to protect them from graffiti
and vandalism. Several products that employ a sacrificial coat to the mural surface are on the market.
Some coatings may crack, bubble, fog, yellow or otherwise alter the colors on the mural. Therefore, a
layer of varnish may be applied to the finished mural first to isolate and protect the paint layer.
d) Consistent maintenance is extremely important to the durability of outdoor murals. It is recommended
that a regular maintenance plan be devised for each mural.

5) Mural Design Approval Process
a) Mural proposals are initially reviewed by appointment with the Dev'I Authority / Main Street Executive
Director.
b) The complete mural submission will be reviewed at the next scheduled Dev'I Authority / Main Street
Design Committee meeting for a recommendation to be considered at the next scheduled Board of
Directors meeting. The applicant is encouraged to attend the meetings.
i) The Design Committee meetings are typically held the 1't Thursday of each month at 6pm. The Board
of Directors meetings are typically held the 3rd Wednesday of each month at 6pm. Both meeting are
held in the Tybee Island City Hall Auditorium at 403 Butler Avenue.
c) A complete Mural Design submission must include the following:
(1) Written description of proposed design, site, surface preparation, materials and processes to be
used (including anti -graffiti treatment), individual/groups involved in the mural design, and/or
preparation, and parties responsible for subsequent maintenance. Ideally, a separate
maintenance plan should be included.
(2) Written permission to proceed with the project, including any additional requirements,
from the property owner.
(3) Color scale rendering (no larger than 8-1/2" x 14") of proposed design, including any text.
(4) Photographs of the proposed site and physical surroundings
(5) Timeline for completing the project
(6) Documentation of finished work. Photographic documentation of completed projects is
required for our records.
PLEASE NOTE: Once the Tybee Island Dev'I Authority / Main Street Board has approved the proposed mural
design, the artist may not make additional changes to the design without returning to the Design Committee
for recommendation of Board approval of the changes prior to implementation of the mural.
During the review process, Directors may make recommendations to meet the intent of the mural guidelines
and better assist the applicant.
In the event that the applicant fails to receive Dev'I Authority / Main Street Board approval for submitted
mural design, s/he may appeal this decision to the City Council.
