7.4.7.2 Because the Office of Arts & Cultural Affairs maintains a roster of juried artists who have been pre-approved for public art projects, roster-based selection shall typically be made by a panel consisting of Department, user group and community representatives, as appropriate, with an artist or arts administrator included.
