Title
RESOLUTION APPROVING SECOND AMENDMENT TO INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF COMMERCE CITY AND THE REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION DISTRICT ("RTD") REGARDING ARTWORK FOR THE NORTH METRO RAIL LINE
Body
Summary and Background Information:
On 02-01-2021, Council approved an amendment to the IGA to account for the new deadline of December 31, 2021 to install the art piece and to provide additional detail regarding the agreed upon materials to be used in the art piece.
The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the supply chain and cost of required materials needed to complete the art piece. Due to the limited availability and increased costs of materials, the artist has requested additional time and funding to source materials and install the piece. The City has agreed to provide an additional $21,900 to cover the increased cost.
A second amendment to the current IGA is necessary in order to account fo new deadline of July 1, 2022 to install the art piece and to notify RTD of the additional financial contribution the city is making to the project. The funds the city will be expending will be covered from the Public Art CIPP line item in fund 395. The public art fund has a significant balance to cover the increased cost.
