No. There are just two roundabouts. The artist can propose for two or just one roundabout.

Nathan—does this budget mean that you are commissioning 4 roundabouts at $50K each, or that you have $200K total to spend and it could be allocated unequally among the sites?  Just trying to figure out if I should post it—typically I don’t post out of state opportunities for budgets less than about $75K, as our artists tell us it’s not worth their time to apply for those.

Thanks,
