Graffiti

There have been more incidents of graffiti reported in our community. To deal most efficiently with the problem the City established Operation Clean Sweep, the Board of Public Works' anti-graffiti & anti-litter program, which features an on-line Grafitti Removal Request Form.

NOTE: Experience has shown that no matter how you accomplish it, the best way to deal with graffiti is to remove/paint over it ASAP. Taggers leave their mark where it will be most readily seen over a long period of time. If it is removed immediately they will tend to find another locale more accomodating to their "handiwork."
