The placement of art in public places enriches, stimulates and enhances the aesthetic experience of the town. The town's Public Art Program is designed to complement the visual experience that is the cornerstone of the town's identity. The town recognizes and rewards the efforts of applicants who place art in publicly accessible areas on private property by providing an incentive as hereafter provided in this policy. (Ord. 35, Series 1996)
