Ehrlich, PAAB staff liaison) Executive Summary Staff liaison Ehrlich reported that during the July 27, 2010 city council meeting, approval was made by the Wylie City Council regarding the final verses to be etched into the seven monoliths in front of the new Wylie Municipal Complex. Within the action item, direction was given to staff to review the punctuation to insure it was grammatically correct for each verse; depending on whether it was a full or partial sentence. She explained that staff had contacted the Library Director, artist Steve Gillman, an author and comments had come in from other sources regarding the proper punctuation. Opinions varied depending whether the references were viewed as "art", poetry/lyric or written English grammar. The board discussed the quotes from all referenced positions and felt that the wording should be as close to the original quotes in wording as possible and should flow as simply as possible. Board member Burt, Dougherty and Harris stated that the periods, capitols and ellipses distracted from the written words when reading the text. Each stone held a thought and August 19,2010 Wylie Public Arts Advisory Board Meeting Minutes j 3 with no punctuation, the reader was drawn to the next stone, to read on. Board member Burt noted that the monoliths were art and purposely chosen for their poetic verse; therefore punctuation was not needed. Board chair Matthews felt the ellipse did accentuate the thought of what had come before but agreed that punctuation as a whole was not required for these art pieces. The board also reviewed a verse that had been edited in wording and gave direction to take the verse back to the wording that was written in the article to stay true to the verse in order to stay true to the wording used in the articles by Beb Fulkerson and true to the quotes made by early Wylie citizens. The direction was for Stone#1 to read: "time and people have passed away but yet remain always in the dusty little corners of our hearts" Board Action A motion was made by board member Dougherty, seconded by board member Spillyards to use the artist's original concept with no punctuation or capitalization for the "art" monoliths by Steve Gillman. A vote was taken and the motion passed 6-1 with board chair Matthews voting against. The PAAB recommendations will be sent to council with the final "mockups" of the etched wording for each stone. ADJOURNMENT A motion was made by board member Gaudreau, seconded by board member Harrison to adjourn the meeting at 8:10 p.m. A vote was taken and the motion passed 7-0.
