RECOMMENDATION Fayetteville City Administration recommends authorizing application for a 2013 Keep America Beautiful — Waste Management Grant in the amount of $10,000. BACKGROUND Council authorized creation of a City Committee through resolution 179-12 for Keep Fayetteville Beautiful which is an affiliate of Keep Arkansas Beautiful and Keep America Beautiful. The affiliation allows grants to be applied for through Keep America Beautiful. A Keep America Beautiful / Waste Management Grant for Community Improvement is being sought for a program of improving community through Environmental Design. DISCUSSION The goal of this project is to use public art installations as deterrents against graffiti and vandalism. The idea of using public art and beautification as a graffiti deterrent is based on the success of a program in Tampa, Florida led by the City of Tampa Public Art Program. This program successfully used public art, particularly on traffic light signal boxes, to reduce incidences of graffiti, lower graffiti removal costs, improve the appearance of the local community, and provide local artists an opportunity to share their work with the public. The Fayetteville Housing Authority has given approval for projects to occur at their properties and Fayetteville in Bloom has also given support of donating $1,000 for the project. BUDGET IMPACT The $10,000 will be received into a Capital Improvement Project along with a budget adjustment upon acceptance of the grant. This is a not a matching grant.
