Title
Substitute resolution authorizing the Commissioner of Public Works to issue one or more permits to the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra League (MSOL) allowing the MSOL to install and maintain "Beastie" sculptures in the public right-of-way at various locations in the City during the summer of 2002.
Analysis
The Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra League is conducting a fund raising campaign in which contributors become sponsors of Beastie sculptures. The sculptures will be publicly displayed during the summer of 2002. Each sculpture will be artistically customized with some form of musical theme. It is expected that 50 – 60 individual Beastie sculptures will be sponsored through the fund raising campaign. Most of the Beasties will be located in the downtown area. And most of those will be placed on property under control of the City of Milwaukee, generally public sidewalks. This resolution will authorize the Commissioner of Public Works to issue a permit to the MSOL allowing it to install the Beasties while obligating the MSOL to maintain them and to remove them, if necessary, during the permit period and upon expiration of the permit.
