    City of Cleveland Indoor artwork in hallways, Public Auditorium CALL FOR ARTISTS Request for Qualifications (RFQ) SPRING 2021 The City of Cleveland is requesting qualifications from artists who may be interested in producing two- dimensional artworks at one or more of six locations in ramped hallways between two floor levels at Public Auditorium, 500 Lakeside Avenue East. The horseshoe-shaped Public Auditorium, which seats up to 10,000, opened in 1922. The 3,000-seat Music Hall and 600-seat Little Theater were added to the south (St. Clair Avenue) end of the auditorium building in 1928, and, at the same time, a new main lobby and terrace for the auditorium were added at the north (Lakeside Avenue) end. One central stage serves both Public Auditorium and the Music Hall. Three artworks will be located in each of the ramped hallways that connect two of the auditorium’s lobbies—the “red lobby” on the entrance level and the “blue lobby” on the upper level. The hallways are each close to 200 feet long, with two rounded 90-degree bends and one switchback each. The artworks will be installed on the curved walls at the 90-degree bends and on the flat walls at the switchbacks. The artworks are a component of a project that will involve making improvements to the hallways so that they will visually complement, but not visually compete with, the ornate lobbies, from which four of the artwork locations are clearly visible. (The switchback locations are visible only from within the hallways.) The other improvements will include repainting the hallways in welcoming colors consonant with the building’s history and aesthetics and upgrading the light fixtures to the high standard set throughout the public areas of the auditorium building.

Jackson In January 2007, my administration re-instituted a Five Year Capital Improvement Program for the City of Cleveland and linked the Program to Connecting Cleveland 2020, the Citywide Plan. This year, we are proposing to issue $31.2 million in additional debt, which is slightly more than the amount of prior debt we will retire during the year. In developing our 2011 capital spending plan, I instructed my Cabinet officials to consider the following priorities. Reorganize for Efficiencies Our most significant expenditures in 2011— $4 million for an 800 mHZ radio system, $4.27 million for a new East Side Maintenance Facility, and $2.5 million for recycling containers—are all focused on improving the City’s operations through enhanced efficiencies. The 800 mHZ investment will address one of the City’s biggest needs for homeland security, emergency and day-to-day operations- that is the need for interoperability amongst City employees in various departments and partnering emergency response agencies. The East Side Maintenance Facility will allow the newly-formed Department of Public Works to consolidate service delivery, similar to the approach we’ve used to clean vacant lots and rights-of-way in our “Clean Cleveland” program.

Jackson Photo Credits: City of Cleveland Photographic Bureau Special Thanks To: Xander Mavrides, Cleveland | GIS Office Tarra Seifullah Petras | Office of the Mayor Annette Williams | Division of Printing and Reproduction A Letter From Mayor Frank G. Jackson This 2015 Five Year Capital Improvement Program represents our ninth annual installment since I took office in 2006. We are proposing to issue $100 million in additional bond debt in 2015: This dollar amount represents about four times the debt the City retires in an average year, and is largely driven by four major initiatives: $25 million for targeted neighborhoods, $20 million to restore the condition of the City’s vehicle fleet, over $34 million for roads and bridges, and over $20 million to repair existing facilities. In developing our capital spending plan for 2015, I have set the following priorities. Pavement Management for Roads Last year I initiated an aggressive program for the repair of the City’s worst-rated streets as measured by our pavement management ratings. Using $2 million from our 2014 bond issue, we leveraged an additional $10 in federal monies from the Northeast Ohio Area Coordinating Agency (“NOACA”) and commenced resurfacing nearly 17 miles on eight streets with a 61 average pavement condition rating. We have an equally aggressive program planned for 2015, and we are also attempting to leverage State and County monies for resurfacing projects. By 2016, we hope to have achieved resurfacing on all streets with below-70 pavement condition ratings.
