Further, having a Community Art Plan may best position the city in <br />acquiring external funding for public art related projects into the future. <br />Recommendation: <br />The Park & Recreation Commission and staff recommend accepting the donation of the Community Art Resource <br />from the Ramsey Community Foundation. <br />Outcome/Action: <br />Consensus that the Ramsey Community Art Resource aligns with other prudent community planning <br />endeavors —and acknowledge that the formal acceptance of the donation of the plan will be on a subsequent <br />Council agenda. <br />Attachments <br />Community Art Resource <br />Raamsey Community Foundation Vision Statement <br />Form Review <br />Inbox Reviewed By Date <br />Bruce Westby Bruce Westby 02/05/2025 09:17 AM <br />Brian Hagen Mark Riverblood 02/06/2025 02:03 PM <br />Brian Hagen Brian Hagen 06/18/2026 10:41 AM <br />Form Started By: Mark Riverblood Started On: 01/13/2025 09:18 AM <br />Final Approval Date: 06/18/2026 <br />
