Commissioner Bonnie presented a draft map produced by vendor Steadyhand Maps in Phoenix and requested commissioners review and mark corrections before the map is finalized. The map was funded with money located by Commissioner George, and staff said a draft would be circulated for comment.

Commissioners also reported that two statues have been approved by City Council and a third statue is proposed for the library pending the library supervisor's approval. The statues are being procured through MORF and are expected to ship in February. Commissioners discussed installation coordination with City staff, including preparing bases and possible separate dedication ceremonies for statues at the recreational fields and the library. Commissioners also noted a potential additional statue representing a girl in a wheelchair for installation near ball fields; that item will require City Council approval and funding identification.

Separately, commissioners reviewed account balances for the commission's trust account, noting an ending balance of $3,060.06 as of Nov. 30 (statement period). Council-funded items such as banners were noted to have come from the city budget rather than the trust account.

Commissioners asked staff to coordinate bases and installation timing with the vendor and City departments and to plan dedications when installations are complete.","The commission reported funding for an arts and historic-district map and confirmed two commissioned statues approved by City Council, with shipments expected in February.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6386885,"Commission refers First Friday event plan back to committee after Kayenta visit report, seeks staff guidance on permits and fees",703,1906000,2609000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2117523-b5cd06e1d577726f9c90ffd8c6a57667&start=1906&end=2609","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2117523-b5cd06e1d577726f9c90ffd8c6a57667/thumbnail_1906000.jpg","/articles/6386885/Mesquite/Clark-County/Nevada/Commission-refers-First-Friday-event-plan-back-to-committee-after-Kayenta-visit-report-seeks-staff-guidance-on-permits-and-fees","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6386885-f3de4a00c90474c882c929db20cffbd1/orig.mp4?Expires=1771170330&Signature=k-JRao0UOgO4qcwzUDp4tF3H1a-FRfX~ATRTAIt8POqiUO2cLsKRjIelTS81k8Rq96Uw2eUwRIobfLMtWdxM5ZsXkXjqdcm1pdKH9ttW2vS9-JmnTPV3XxCa8G5ZfaeHoPFeWYUpIAboee69povAPAColANoHe349xZErUltNU~QR9CqeEOCsBqF6aOLHwPdAbz1StvXq4VEGNUwR-5rFojr07XXlEltiowjPjkAvfCA~t6s0yf9AQggXO6Qu0MaWWjf~J6~PHjRSMkU9OSZxuo7R3QaWLqFpk6LymHnMPtym2Rz1oUxeZrmzuRDS5zjNawvKw4WhzovznB0T0~tLQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Mesquite Public Arts Commission on Jan. 13 discussed restarting its First Friday event work and referred the item back to the planning committee to develop a scoped proposal for the commission and City staff.

Several commissioners reported on a December visit to Kayenta's First Friday and described low attendance, lack of street lighting at dusk and few activities. Commissioners discussed using the successful Yucca Street festival as a template and debated whether to pilot the event on Yucca Street only or expand citywide to include Mesquite Plaza and nearby shopping centers. Concerns raised included vendor permits, a previously charged $25 vendor fee, the workload for city staff to manage vendors, and whether the event should be evening-based (with lighting concerns) or daytime.

Commissioners favored starting smaller—using Yucca Street or a twin-site model including the Mesquite Plaza—while the committee refines a plan that minimizes administrative burden and clarifies whether vendor fees or permits would apply. Staff (including Nick and Estevan) were asked to advise on permitting, any city fees, and whether a per-venue or per-vendor fee model would be required. The commission directed the committee (Steve, Judy and George) to reconvene and return with a plan for the commission and, if needed, City Council.","Following a visit to Kayenta's First Friday, commissioners recommended restarting planning with a small pilot and asked staff to clarify permit, fee and procurement requirements before expanding the event citywide.",{"_33":100,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":101,"_41":102,"_43":103,"_45":46,"_47":104,"_49":105,"_51":106,"_53":107,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":108,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":109,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6386890,"Public Arts Commission finalizes five-year plan, approves changes for City Council presentation",776,1093000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2117523-b5cd06e1d577726f9c90ffd8c6a57667&start=1093&end=1869","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2117523-b5cd06e1d577726f9c90ffd8c6a57667/thumbnail_1093000.jpg","/articles/6386890/Mesquite/Clark-County/Nevada/Public-Arts-Commission-finalizes-five-year-plan-approves-changes-for-City-Council-presentation","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6386890-b5f42f8542b031b5ca45ed6e204d03fa/orig.mp4?Expires=1771170330&Signature=c10AoM7SLexrAHiq02~S2SVnkUnJAIwAJHfqSg8eiaxrRVW2tZB1xNybr2L3wCtZB7Vmdvki9cC9IATCzzLbDwI4KUiVQpdXI5q2nOozLJQ9esnwPVZ8kHm~Nw7WbC907uRFKM8Mvy0CUzVyXEmSltfyDoHoMr8Tesp4kSo1ixCm5ggcb5HDmspn0tIisfLi61j8s8yrtBq-IpwVMFj78NJFRhQYtaUXejYeXvGMfWAEOjYbStoONHo9F56RCgqu52r9PJbQ5wuCWa76OzqQuEJn29g4T5sFzDkSgYxnM~tVX9V2FaM1uLvB~2QzmP0nCtPakyfNDBbAMqTz6c51wQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Mesquite Public Arts Commission on Jan. 13 approved a five-year public arts plan and directed staff to present it to City Council.

Chair Karen said she had informed City Council that the commission would bring a five-year plan for council approval. Commissioners discussed edits before finalizing the plan: they removed the pollinator garden from year one after noting the city had not approved it, recommended moving it to a later year, and added language to year three to \"help fund\" Shakespeare or theater-related programming rather than committing full funding. Commissioners also asked that the commission add an annual review of the banner program (the seasonal arts banners) to the plan.

Commissioners discussed the timeline and agreed the plan should be a rolling document that would be revisited annually. The commission voted to approve the five-year plan and submit it to City Council for consideration. Chair Karen said she would present the plan to City Council at the next council meeting on Jan. 28 and requested staff alert the commission when city budget season opens so members can provide input on line items.

The motion to approve the plan passed by voice vote. Commissioners emphasized the plan's flexible, iterative nature and agreed to refine later years as the commission executes early priorities.","The Mesquite Public Arts Commission approved its five-year plan for submission to City Council, moving one item (the pollinator garden) out of year one and adding clarifications on funding and banners.",{"_33":111,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":112,"_41":113,"_43":114,"_45":115,"_47":116,"_49":117,"_51":118,"_53":119,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":120,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":121,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6386895,"Commission approves mural design for Mesquite Community Theatre; artist is local but building prep, tree removal excluded from quote",533,405000,938000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2117523-b5cd06e1d577726f9c90ffd8c6a57667&start=405&end=938","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2117523-b5cd06e1d577726f9c90ffd8c6a57667/thumbnail_405000.jpg","/articles/6386895/Mesquite/Clark-County/Nevada/Commission-approves-mural-design-for-Mesquite-Community-Theatre-artist-is-local-but-building-prep-tree-removal-excluded-from-quote","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6386895-0dde84ec376307f3d2c1b5f7d34f830f/orig.mp4?Expires=1771170330&Signature=mXiH5uBiesOxvNDFhVIxcA9Qv-64WJtBVztZXQx9~uNS-8j67AUmiAKBkEvgxMr0TxhhYNKUt7kPCoCO9yODsYLlSES~ycvYiSifx3YGbkHK1z5GO1krBgQGQeN8BJC8g3~ac9rfa3dw5TFI1ygiL8QtYcWhn0n3aAfRas~Q1so5-g1daHwnBUMagR6w3M64u2q-UmpOwwfDOEehI5imwSLCTgv8IhCd-dDeKNvfm1KVpXpgMo2zdyM4cHHPljjQQr4kItVWrpUgnFDnFFK2AvwJOThONG-UDlZcTg3tzEWztg24wk1zlWDWH22MCFFJvomS9V3RjLcDClkNMVVlEw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Mesquite Public Arts Commission on Jan. 13 approved a mural design for the Mesquite Community Theatre drawn by local artist Miles Woods.

Richard Cook, representing the Virgin Valley Theatre Group and the Mesquite Community Theatre, presented daytime and nighttime visualizations of the proposed mural and described coordination with the artist. The commission voted to approve the artwork subject to follow-up with city staff on required approvals.

Commission discussion noted the artist's quoted fee of about $3,500, but several commissioners confirmed that the price covered only painting time and materials and did not include site preparation, tree removal or protective coatings. Commissioners said they would need to consult with city staff—specifically Nick (last name not specified) and Estevan—to determine whether the city requires additional bids, whether the wall needs repairs or priming, and what permits or tree removal approvals are required. One commissioner observed that procurement rules could require multiple bids for city-funded work, while others said the mural is a custom piece tied to this artist's original design.

Members noted the mural's potential benefit to tourism and the theater's public presence. The commission discussed funding sources, including available matching funds in the commission's account and potential grants, and directed staff to pursue information on cost and procurement requirements. A motion to approve the artwork passed by voice vote.

The commission recorded that Miles Woods is the local artist, with Richard Cook representing the theater. Commissioners emphasized that the $3,500 figure did not include preparatory work and that the city must confirm the wall's readiness and any required tree removal before the mural proceeds.","The Mesquite Public Arts Commission voted to approve a mural design by artist Miles Woods for the Mesquite Community Theatre, subject to city approvals and additional preparation work not included in the artist's quote.",{"_33":123,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":124,"_41":125,"_43":126,"_45":127,"_47":128,"_49":129,"_51":130,"_53":131,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":132,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":133,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6386897,"Mesquite Public Arts Commission names at-large nominee, swears in new commissioner and records reappointments",131,254000,385000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2117523-b5cd06e1d577726f9c90ffd8c6a57667&start=254&end=385","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2117523-b5cd06e1d577726f9c90ffd8c6a57667/thumbnail_254000.jpg","/articles/6386897/Mesquite/Clark-County/Nevada/Mesquite-Public-Arts-Commission-names-at-large-nominee-swears-in-new-commissioner-and-records-reappointments","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6386897-e47fd4cf4fdab8caf87720d16440ff6c/orig.mp4?Expires=1771170330&Signature=c8lmHSbcl16uBRU-lhJEN53y6SNl36mVQ7nNhHlRWpV3JYaREoJvZb~1mSRtIQ2x5BmJ2fttiypjotrtb9HrOgACVpe6M8rM-E72QNZ2XDUgefv3Oda5DklgseocoQXf6YDrWxs48upuz3cy8NeYQNPD5fQIU-pTreHrsmXOe81WTflrOqVhQUgPsGYc862tlxsLaJhl8H9qyUirg7y9xLT-qCqUWoAN9RlCLfvKW0L8XqhqS-X1oZbV2UfftXOR-~pAcGN1bPSNkGqRBfXd~AcVCjECsaBbXdmtDA3FrbJelhZhUfXu2rjeQHaDRdEa3qxiToAt8yQgThEemiO1iw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Mesquite Public Arts Commission on Jan. 13 nominated Cynthia Delaney for the commission's at-large vacancy and formally swore in a new mayoral appointee, Mitzi Bender.
