RCNY § 2-08
(a)Following receipt of the panel's recommendations, the Design Agency shall make its final decision concerning the work(s) of art to be included in the eligible project. If the Design Agency's decision differs from the panel's recommendations, the Design Agency shall promptly, and within the design phase, provide a written explanation for its decision to the Commissioner, who shall forward copies of such explanation to members of the panel and to the persons referred to in 43 RCNY § 2-03(e) above.
(b)It is the intent of Section 224 of the Charter that the works of art be an integral part of and compatible with the project being constructed. Hence, the procedures called for in these Regulations are meant to commence at the earliest stages of project design to assure that the project construction schedule has incorporated into it the schedule to be followed for the creation, acquisition or restoration of the works of art to be included therein.
(c)The Commissioner shall administer the implementation of Section 224 of the Charter and shall offer guidance, assistance and advice, throughout the pre- and post-panel process, to the agencies involved with eligible projects, the Architect, the artist(s) or the community.
