Linda Mesa Avenue and Railroad Avenue. Due the the specialized nature of this maintenance, the Town has historically utilized qualified contractors to perform this work. Maintenance activities include monthly servicing, water quality testing, microbe treatments, annual draining and cleaning, and the like. The current pond and fountain maintenance contract is set to expire on June 30, 2021, so a Call for Bids was recently posted for a new three year contract, with two possible one year extensions. DISCUSSION In response to the Call for Bids, the Town received proposals from three qualified companies. The lowest responsive bid was from Solitude Lake Management for an annual total of $46,911.00. Solitude Lake Management has completed this work for the Town for over 15 years (previously under the name Aquatic Environments, Inc.) and has performed well during that time. Sufficient funds will be appropriated in the Town's 2021/22 Operating Budget for this contract. It is recommended that the Finance Committee approve a contract for $46,911.00 with Solitude Lake Management for pond and fountain maintenance.

In an effort to diversify the type of temporary art that is displayed Town Staff has reached out to the Foldhaus Art Collective to participate in conjunction with the upcoming art gallery summer exhibit "Altered and Reimagined". Foldhaus Art Collective is locally based in the Bay Area and comprised of a group of engineers who are also artists. Together, this group created interactive art pieces the Shrumen Lumen: a garden of origami mushrooms. Each mushroom is an umbrella -like mechanism powered by an industrial actuator which causes the cap to change shape. Pressure pads, located at the base of the mushroom, activates the movement. Over 1,600 LED lights consistently change colors automatically and the mushroom structures stand 12 feet tall, and the caps expand to 14 feet wide. These public art pieces have been on view at The Renwick Gallery (Smithsonian Museum) in Washington D.C., in the Dubai in the Design District, at Burning Man in Blackrock, CA, the Oakland Museum of California, the Cincinnati Art Museum in Ohio, and at the Pacific Palace in Hong Kong, China. DISCUSSION This outdoor public art exhibition will be on view from Memorial Day until Labor Day (end of May 2021 -beginning of September 2021). The Town of Danville will receive two out of the five mushrooms created. One mushroom will be housed on the patio in front of the Village Theatre Art Gallery and one in front of the Danville Community Center. Staff anticipates this exhibit along with its programs and events to attract people to the downtown area stimulating economic vitality as they travel to see the artwork. Public artwork of this measure is known to increase community pride and tourism. ��(4-(o, Sufficient funds have been appropriated in the Town's Public Art CIP Budget to cover the cost of delivery, installation, and the exhibition loan. It is recommended that the Finance Committee approve a contract not to exceed $25,000 to Foldhaus Art Collective, for the Shrumen Lumen public art exhibit.
