II: OLD BUSINESS
1. Art in Public Places: Mary Kay received several samples of Instrument of Conveyance and Applications from Jerry Dahl. What Mary Kay found common in most documents was that the no matter what documents the artist signs with their donation, they still have lots of rights according to the 1990 Visual Artist Rights Act. She and Marty will review these documents and put together an appropriate one as attachments to the recently drafted Art in Public Places Policy. They hope to have a policy in place for Tammy to take to the March 12th Directors meeting.

III. NEW BUSINESS

1. Countywide Field Assessment RFP: Tammy mentioned that the Town of Frisco is currently requesting proposals from firms interested in conducting a countywide athletic fields assessment and long-term management plan. When Joanne Breigenzer, Sports Coordinator for the Town of Silverthorne, returns from maternity leave she may very well become involved in this process when necessary. Tammy mentioned their process may go something like; getting proposals, holding public meetings, then ¡§findings¡¨ meeting. This information, if you are interested, can be found on their website at www.townoffrisco.com.
