Sculpture Locations: Mr. Ed Bauer submitted the re- SCULPTURE LOCATIONS, commendation from the culptural Committee on the placement R -66 of the three pieces of sculptures in the River Bend Plaza, R -66. This was discussed in length in the previous session. The following recommendations were made by Environmental Plan- ning aid Design (Joint Venture Consultants with Clyde E. Willia s & Associates) for the three sculptural awards, which are to be placed on record: b Disposition Parcel No. 7-IA: Commission Legal Counsel, RESOLUTION NO. 474 Mr. Ke in J. Butler, advised t e Redevelopment Commission, by RECONFIRMED, DISPOSI- Resolu ion No. 474, adopted on February 15, 1974, accepted the TION PARCEL NO. 7 -1A, bid of Earl Gagosian to purchase Disposition Parcel No. 7 -1A, R -66 and au horized the preparation and execution of a Redevelopment Agreement and a Quit -Claim Deed relative to said parcel. The No ice of the Redeveloper's Public Disclosure Statement has now been published. Proofs of Publication were shown as pub - lished in The South Bend Tribune on February 22 and March 1, and in the Tri- County News on February 22, 1974. 1) The Robert Kuntz piece: "RECTANGULAR SHAPES" be located within the formal garden area at the north end of Block 11, opposite the Morris Civic - Auditorium and the entrance to the interior drive. Gravel base and a matching color foundation to absorb the metal stain is also being considered. 2) The John Mooney piece: "CONTINUOUS YOU" be lo- cated within the free form planter in Block 5, adjacent to the J. C. Penney Company entrance and opposite Robertson's Department Store, south en- trance. This location would require little or no re- orientation of trees or plantings and the sculpture piece would rest on a black granite base. This piece was originally contemplated for the Western Avenue site. 3) The Doug Gruizenna piece: "ART -METAL FORM" is recommended to be located within the terrazzo piazza in Block 3, opposite Baer's Furniture and Appliance Center on the east side of the area. Because of the multiple use projected for this all- purpose area, it is further recommended that the piece be bolted down and be made re- movable. If and when the piece is moved, it can also be relocated in the triangular section in Block 2. This piece weighs 3,000 pounds. An alternate base foundation may not be within our budget. Motion was made by Mr. Chenney that we accept the recommendations of our consultant, Environmental Planning and Design. Motion was second d by Rev. Williams and unanimously carried. b Disposition Parcel No. 7-IA: Commission Legal Counsel, RESOLUTION NO. 474 Mr. Ke in J.
