15 <br />ANNUAL ARTS AND CULTURE WORK PLAN <br />RECOMMENDATION 10 <br />Develop an annual Arts and Culture Work Plan with the assistance of a consultant, as needed, <br />for review and approval by the SLAC. <br />OVERVIEW <br />An annual Arts and Culture Work Plan is an important tool for charting current <br />and future arts and culture projects and determining resources and funding <br />priorities. It serves to inform San Leandro’s policymakers, its staff, and the public <br />about the activities and opportunities available <br />It is the job of the appropriate City staff, with input from the community and from <br />the SLAC, to determine which projects are the most important ones to undertake <br />in a given year. It is essential that those making decisions about arts and culture <br />are aware of what is happening in the community, what issues and needs are <br />emerging, and what is required to respond to them. <br />Planning for arts and culture projects needs to balance the long-range with the <br />near-term. To ensure operational consistency and accountability, the Arts and <br />Culture Program needs to annually identify new projects to be initiated within <br />that fiscal year and provide a status report on current and completed projects. <br />The Arts and Culture Work Plan should be updated each fiscal year and include <br />the following components: <br />1. Public art and arts and culture projects to be initiated within the following <br />one-year period. <br />2. Budget and funding sources for each project. <br />3. Location of each project and identification of community partners. <br />4. Estimated timeline for project initiation and completion. <br />5. Projects currently funded and in progress, noting selected artist(s) and <br />estimated project completion dates. <br />26
