RESERVE FUND FOR CULTURE AND ARTS
The City Council hereby recognizes the importance of promoting culture
and the arts within the City of Newport Beach. A number of individuals
and groups, such as the Arts Commission and Friends of the Newport
Theatre Arts Center, have been organized with the express purpose of
developing and promoting culture, theatre and the arts.
The City would compliment these efforts by establishing a Reserve Fund
for Culture and Arts that can be used for a) developing a master plan
for the promotion of culture and arts; b) acquiring land and /or the
construction of facilities to promote culture and arts and; c)
instituting other cultural promotion projects.
The sum of $55,000 shall be provided each year for specific cultural or
artistic planning, promotion and /or construction projects as approved by
the City Council. It is the policy of the City of Newport Beach that
expenditures from the reserve fund should be matched equally by the
community in the form of contributions and donations.
In regard to the City's roll in financially sponsoring art and cultural
events, the City Arts Commission shall review all programs and requests
for support from arts groups. The Commission shall forward its
recommendations for funding to the City Council for final approval. Any
appropriation shall not exceed 508 of the Arts Commissions' annual
budget. For the purpose of this policy, arts groups shall be defined as
those involved in visual, musical, theatre, dance, crafts, performing
and literary activities.
The following priorities shall be considered by the Commission. The
order of preference for granting support shall be as follows:
a) Local arts groups located within the City and offering programs to
City residents;
b) Regional arts groups located in Orange County and offering
programs to City residents; and
C) Arts groups located in California and performing or offering
programs to City residents.
Groups not offering programs or services to local residents shall not be
eligible for support from the City.
