Adoption of Public Art Program
for the review and approval of artwork installations on public property
within the City of Bozeman and administration of the program
The following administrative procedures are hereby adopted:
1. Purpose. The purpose of the Public Art Program ("Program") is to create an efficient
process for the receipt, processing, and administration of requests to install artwork in
public spaces within the City of Bozeman that promotes public art while also protecting
the public health and safety and minimizing the City's risk of liability.
2. Applicability. These procedures apply to all requests to install artwork in public spaces
within the City of Bozeman, including public rights of way, parks, city owned open space
and trails, and other city owned or city controlled property.
3. Responsibility. The City Manager or designee ("City Representative") will administer the
Program.
4. Procedures:
a. License. Each artwork installation requires a license agreement in a form approved
by the City Attorney. If the installation is within a public right of way, this
requirement may be met with an encroachment permit issued by the Department of
Public Works rather than a license agreement.
b. Application. Applications for artwork installations must be submitted to the City
Representative on a form approved by the City Attorney, in substantially the form
shown in Exhibit A.
c. Approval. Applications will first be reviewed by the City Representative to
determine the location of the proposed installation.
1
i. For locations within the public right of way, the application will be
forwarded to the Director of Public Works for approval.
ii. For locations within public parks, city owned open space or other
recreational facilities, city controlled parkland or trail systems, the
application will be forwarded to the Director of Parks and Recreation for
approval.
iii. For any other public location within City, the City Manager will be
responsible for approval.
d. Issuance of license or permit. If approval is received, the City Representative will
work with the City Attorney's office (or, if applicable, the Department of Public
Works) to prepare a license agreement or issue an encroachment permit.
