The Wylie Public Arts Advisory Board voted to approve the minutes from its Dec. 11, 2024 meeting and to adopt changes to the board bylaws after a procedural revote during the meeting.

A board member moved to “consider and act upon the public arts advisory board minutes from 12/11/24,” and another member seconded the motion. Technical issues required a brief revote before the action was completed; the transcript records that several members completed the vote after resolving an access problem that initially left member Esther [last name not specified] locked out. The transcript does not record a roll-call tally; the board recorded the outcome as approved.

Separately, a member moved to consider and act upon the changes to the Wylie Public Arts Advisory Board bylaws; the motion was seconded and approved following the same procedural troubleshooting and revote. The meeting record shows the board completed the bylaw vote during the session.

Members also discussed calendar scheduling for 2025. Staff provided a draft 2025 meeting calendar and noted June 19 is a city holiday; the board asked staff to bring alternate dates at the next meeting and indicated Thursdays generally work best for members. The board also confirmed that December meetings are typically skipped in favor of the arts festival. A staff member reported Bluegrass on Ballard has been moved to May 31 for the coming year and that vendor applications would open soon.

The meeting adjourned at 6:37 p.m.

Why it matters: The approved minutes and bylaw changes govern board procedure going forward; calendar decisions affect member attendance and scheduling of public arts programming and vendor recruitment.
