AGENDA REPORT
TO: The Honorable City Council
FROM: Steven Kueny, City Manager 6i
DATE: January 28, 2013 (CC Meeting of 02106113)
SUBJECT: Consider Status Report on Mission Statement, Priorities, Goals and
Objectives for Fiscal Year 2012/2013 and Direction for Fiscal Year
2013/2014
Attached are the City Council's approved Mission Statement, Priorities, Goals and
Objectives for FY 2012/2013. In approving this document,the Council included a list of top
ten (10) priorities, which consists of forty-five (45) of the one hundred twenty-two (122)
identified objectives. All objectives are placed in one of three categories(0 to 2 years; 2 to
5 years; and 5+ years) based on their estimated time for completion. The completed
document also indicates which objectives were Funded (F), Not Funded (NF), or only
required Staff Effort (SE).
A written status report on the various priorities and objectives is not included as part of this
report. The City Council Quarterly Report provides a status on most of these items as well
as other staff work efforts. Staff will respond to specific Council questions when this matter
is considered.
Since 2001, the Council has reviewed the objectives prior to preparation of the budget with
the purpose of having more correlation between the Council approved objectives and City
Manager proposed budget.
It has been our practice to maintain a secondary list of objectives. In prior years, several
items have been elevated from this list to approved objectives by the Council. On June 20,
2012, the Council approved 60 items to remain on a list of Potential Objectives. The
Potential Objectives are attached to this report. At this time, no additional Potential
Objectives are proposed for City Council consideration.

AGENDA REPORT
TO: Moorpark Arts Commission
FROM: Hugh Riley, Assistant City Manager
DATE: January 24, 2013 (Special Meeting of February 5, 2013)
SUBJECT: Future Priorities for Work Program for the Arts Commission
BACKGROUND
Chair Jean Amador and Commissioner Charles Blaugrund prepared a Public Art
Survey, which was submitted to the City Council at the Annual Joint Meeting on
April 11, 2012. This is a photographic survey of existing and potential public art
locations in Moorpark. The report also contains examples of different types of
public art in other communities. A copy of the Survey Report is attached.
At the same Joint Meeting, the Commission and the City Council discussed a
number of topics and issues for the future focus of the Commission including the
following:
1) The Arts Commission's completion of Objective VI. 23, with Commissioner
Blaugrund's presentation of the Public Art Survey;
2) Placement of the Public Art Survey on the City's website and Channel 10
under the Arts Commission category;
3) The Arts Commission's offer to assist staff in developing policies and
program guidelines for use of art in public places by June 2012 in relationship to
Objective VII. 2.;
4) The Arts Commission's commitment to perform investigative work to provide
to staff with guidelines for fine and cultural arts expenditures to be included in an
Arts Master Plan;
5) Incorporating art at entrances to the City;

6) Goal to have the art selected for any given location reflect the community of
Moorpark, as Mr. Fischer's artwork does at the Ruben Castro Human Services'
Center; and
7) Placing documentation of the symbolism of the elements included in the
Veterans' Memorial located on Spring Road, on the City's website and at the
memorial site itself, as it was described in the staff report presented to Council
during the approval process.
CITY COUNCIL OBJECTIVES
There are three objectives included in the City of Moorpark's Mission Statement,
Priorities, Goals and Objectives for 2012-2013 that apply directly to the Arts
Commission. They are:
VI.A.21 By March 31, 2013, present a policy to the City Council that
new facilities and buildings which are City funded include
public art in the same manner as private projects.
VII.A.2 Develop policies and program guidelines for use of Art in
Public Places and Tree and Landscape fees by June 30,
2013.
VII.A.8 Consider Items of public art for the Police Services Center,
Arroyo Vista Recreation Center, High Street Post Office, and
Train Station by December 31, 2013.
DISCUSSION
In addition to policy and program development, which will largely be staff driven,
staff would like to recommend that the Commission consider beginning
immediately to obtain proposals for public art to be placed at various public
facilities. These include the Arroyo Vista Community Park and Recreation
Center, the Police Services Center, the Post Office, and the Metrolink Station on
High Street. Since the Arroyo Vista Park and Recreation Center and the Post
Office offer the greatest public exposure, staff suggests these locations be given
priority. The Commission may want to discuss seeking creative proposals for
both facilities simultaneously. The remaining facilities can follow in 2014. Public
art for the proposed new Civic Center, including a Library and City Hall, can be
discussed when conceptual design gets underway later this year.
Staff will take the necessary action to include the Public Art Survey on the City's
website. Utilizing the experience gained from the Selection Process for the "We
Are One Family" sculpture at the Ruben Castro Human Services Center and the
24

selection process for Arroyo Vista, staff can work with the Commission to
develop policies and program guidelines for the placement of art in public places
and the expenditure of Art in Public Places funds.
The development of an Arts Master Plan should be deferred to a future time.
Staff believes that Moorpark may be too small a community to justify
concentrated work on a Public Arts Master Plan.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Discuss priorities for the Commission's Work Program and direct staff to begin
the process for the selection of public art piece(s) at the Arroyo Vista Community
Park.

8. PRESENTATIONS/ACTION/DISCUSSION:
C. Consider Priorities for Work Program for the Arts Commission Staff
Recommendation: Discuss Commission's work program, and direct staff
to begin the process for the selection of public art piece(s) at the Arroyo
Vista Community Park.
Hugh Riley gave staff's oral report. He requested that the Commission
choose two top priority sites in the City for proposed art projects. Once
approved by the City Council, a Request for Qualification could then be
sent to a number of artists.
It was suggested that a tour of the City sites mentioned in the report could
perhaps be scheduled to better determine what type of art pieces should
be considered and recommended.
The Commission concurred that the two top priorities for the next City's art
projects are Arroyo Vista Community Park and Recreation Center, and
High Street, with the focus on the Metrolink station.
