GOAL ACTIONS 40. The Creative Initiatives Staff Team should regularly identify opportunities to create flexible, neighborhood-based spaces that support creative activities, especially in underserved areas (South Central, South West, and North Madison). Opportunities could include small amphitheatres, neighborhood center classroom/workshop/production spaces, and dedicated activity/rehearsal/performance studios in community facilities including parks, libraries, andneighborhood and community centers. [2012] 41. The Madison Arts Commission should research model policies and ordinances requiring or incenting vacant commercial spaces to display art in street facing windows and/or encouraging use of vacant facilities for temporary installations. The Commission should consider both compulsory and voluntary participation approaches, and it should recommend a model for development and adoption by the City of Madison. [2012] 42. The Creative Initiatives Staff Team should regularly assess underutilized historic sites and surplus properties for their potential to help meet the housing and/or professional needs of the creative sector in planning for their continuing role in the community. [2013] 43. The Partnership should train groups of artists and creative workers to form collectives for the development of production, studio, and live/work spaces. [2014] 44. The Partnership should lead efforts to help Madison learn more about the different kinds of cultural districts that exist. It should test local interest in developing a local approach. If warranted by local interest, the Madison Arts Commission should establish a Study Committee on Cultural Districts. [2015] V.F. CREATE A COHERENT FUNDING SYSTEM FOR CREATIVE SECTOR DEVELOPMENT 45. Once the city’s debt service costs are reduced to a more sustainable level, the City of Madison should earmark $500,000 annually for capital participation in arts and cultural facilities owned by nonprofit arts and cultural organizations governed by representative community-based boards and serving a critical role as either a neighborhood or a discipline-specific resource. [TBD based on capital budget management decisions] Madison Cultural Plan Recommendations 80
46. Once the city’s debt service costs are reduced to a more sustainable level, the City of Madison should adopt a formal 1% for art ordinance that attaches to municipal capital projects including infrastructure and landscape projects and TIF districts. Any final program design should direct 5% of the annual allocation for public art to a conservation fund and provide for support of a full range of program activities. [TBD based on capital budget management decisions] 47. The City of Madison should increase support to Madison Arts Commission’s arts grants to $150,000 in year one and grow this fund at the annual rate of city budget growth so long as economic recession is ongoing and at double that rate in better times until the annual allocation is equivalent in value to $1/resident. [2011] 48. The Director of Planning should create a mechanism compensating the Madison Arts Commission for staffing costs related to capital projects participation. This mechanism should create one full-time additional staff position within the Madison Arts Commission, giving the Commission the capacity to meet its obligations under this plan. Staffing levels should grow according to capital projects participation over time. [2012] 49. Beginning with the next budget cycle, the Madison Arts Commission should earmark $85,000 of its $150,000 grant fund per year for five years to seed the creation of The Partnership. Earmarked funds should be used to support a contract for services to develop The Partnership. In year one, the $85,000 earmark should be used to create a contract for organizational development services as described in this document. [2012] In the subsequent four years, the $85,000 should be structured as a challenge grant requiring a 1:1 match and be designated for The Partnership’s operating expenses. Annual contracts between The Partnership and the city should include performance standards. After the initial five years, the city’s financial participation should be governed by the general rules established for membership by local units of government.
