 The motion carried by the following vote:

 YES: 7 Andrews, Bobosky, Brodhead, Lankisch, Pande, Greene Robb, Venezia
 NO: 0
 ABSTAIN: Sullivan

E. NEW BUSINESS:

1. Receive the report from the Exploratory Task Force Arts Curation Subcommittee

 Greene Robb reported out on the subcommittee's work and highlighted the
 different stages proposed for the Arts Curation process:

 Stage 1 - Call for Projects/Artists
 Stage 2 - Application Assessment
 Stage 3 - Unified Recommendation to the City Council
 Stage 4 - Installation ad Implementation
 Stage 5 - Program Evaluation

 Greene Robb discussed funding future projects, that the Naperville Arts
 Committee (NAC) will most likely only be able to approve initiatives for six
 months in 2022, that it is best to view the NAC as a "pilot," and the
 subcommittee suggested several low/no cost projects such as:

 1. Trash Can Beautification Program
 2. Utility Box Wrapping Program
 3. First Friday's (or another day of the week) in the Downtown

 Greene Robb stated the subcommittee discussed how the NAC could get more
 artists involved in the future and the need to work together in developing a
 program for the City that has clear accountability, a defined process, and
 open/transparent communications.

2. Reach consensus on an arts program recommendation to present to the City Council on

 consensus, approved the following recommendations to be presented at the

 community through arts."

 Program Administration:
 The composition of the NAC and how the committee would be responsible for
 managing the new Naperville Arts program, the duties of the committee, the
 need for an annual Call for Projects, a process to review requests that are
