To consider and agree the recommendations arising from the Hereford Public Art Strategy developed as part of the Hereford City Centre Improvements (HCCI) public art programme.

That:

a) Herefordshire Council supports the strategic vision for public art as outlined in the Hereford Public Art Strategy; and

b) Supports six strategic objectives outlined to achieve the public art vision for Hereford, namely on the themes of commissioning, advocacy, funding, engagement, maintenance and expansion.

Do nothing. Public art management remains ad hoc as it is now – this is not recommended due to the overwhelming success of the HCCI public art programme in Hereford and potential opportunities highlighted in the strategy report.
