A
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF HOMER, ALASKA, AMENDING RESOLUTION 10-45 TO
DESIGNATE COAL POINT PARK OR MARINER PARK AS THE APPROVED LOCATION OF THE
PROPOSED JEAN KEENE MEMORIAL SCULPTURE.
WHEREAS, The City Council recently
adopted Resolution 10-45 entitled “ A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF HOMER,
ALASKA, ACCEPTING A PROPOSAL FROM BRAD HUGHES TO CREATE A JEAN KEENE MEMORIAL
SCULPTURE AND GRANTING PERMISSION TO LOCATE THE SCULPTURE ON CITY LAND ADJACENT
TO THE SEAFARER’S MEMORIAL”; and
WHEREAS, Since Resolution 10-45 was
adopted, it has come to the Council’s attention that locating this sculpture
next to the Seafarer’s Memorial may not be optimal or consistent with the
intent and purpose of the Seafarer’s Memorial; and
WHEREAS, The Council finds it
desirable to designate a new location for the proposed Jean Keene Memorial Sculpture;
and
WHEREAS, The City, the sculptor, and
Jean Keene family members have been working to identify a new location to
recommend to the Council; and
WHEREAS, The alternatives being
considered and evaluated include Coal Point Park, End of the Road Park, Mariner
Park, and an observation point on the Spit Trail across from Mariner Park.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that
the Homer City Council hereby amends Resolution 10-45 and designates Coal Point
Park or Mariner Park as the approved location of the proposed Jean Keene
Memorial Sculpture; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that with the
exception of the sculpture location, all other elements of Resolution 10-45 are
reaffirmed and incorporated herein including the terms and conditions of the
proposal, specifically, the design, materials, maintenance, repair, and the
requirement that the sculptor work closely with the Public Works Department.
PASSED AND ADOPTED by the Homer City
Council this 14th day of June, 2010.
