Sec. 19.85.1. Expenditure of Public Works Capital Improvement Projects Funds for Arts and Cultural Facilities and Services.
 
   Except as otherwise provided in this article, an amount equal to one percent (1%) of the total cost of all construction, improvement or remodeling work for each public works capital improvement project undertaken by the City shall be included in the project budget for expenditure in compliance with the City’s Public Works Improvements Arts Program (Program).
 
   For purposes of this article, “public works capital improvement project” includes any capital project paid for wholly or in part by the City of Los Angeles or by any board, bureau or department of the City authorized by the City Charter or other law to construct or remodel any building, structure, park, utility, street, sidewalk or parking facility, or any other type of capital project or any portion thereof, within the geographical limits of the City.
 
   The requirements of this section shall apply to all public works capital improvement projects, whether or not a final inspection or a certificate of occupancy is required for the project. Compliance with the requirements of the Program shall be a condition precedent to design approval required by Section 22.109 of this Code, and whenever a building permit is required by applicable provisions of the Los Angeles Municipal Code, shall also be a condition precedent to the issuance of the permit.
 
   EXCEPTION: If any applicable law, or the source of funding with respect to any particular public works capital improvement project prohibits use for the arts and artworks as an object of expenditure of certain funds, such funds shall be excluded from the total project budget for the purpose of calculating the expenditure for arts required by the Program for the project involved.
