RE: Communication on Pain Color for Extended Outdoor Dining
Purpose
This memo is to provide notice and ensure the Board of Aldermen and other key stakeholders are aware that the
selected color “A LIGHT RED BRICK COLOR (PANTONE SMART 18-1350 TCX BURNT BRICK OR
EQUIVALENT) is not available and cannot be painted onto the barriers.
Discussion
Late yesterday afternoon (4/21/22), I learned from the Division of Public Works that the selected color for painting
of the barriers is not available and will not be available in a timely manner.
Needless to state, time is of the essence and the idea of selecting an “equivalent” unilaterally or without a public
discussion strikes me as a potentially egregious overstep on my or someone else’s part.
There is paint samples provided through a “paint book”. A few particular colors could be selected as “equivalents”.
Recommendation
Therefore, | am recommending that a discussion occur with the Committee on Infrastructure. I believe there is a
meeting scheduled for Wednesday, April 27°, | would welcome the input of the committee on how best to handle,
and what is meant by “equivalent”,
Thank you.
