The city of Estacada desires to expand the experience of its citizenry through public art of the highest quality in concept and execution. Public art contributes directly to the quality of life in the city of Estacada, because citizens view and interact with it daily in public spaces. Public art instills concern for beauty and good design in the public and private sectors by setting high aesthetic standards. Public art reflects and communicates the history, character and values of the community and thereby creates a sense of place. The city therefore declares its policy that each major city construction project which involves the construction or alteration of certain city facilities shall have an appropriate display of works of art integrated into the project by establishing a percent for art program.
