1. What can I do if my property is vandalized with graffiti?

It is the responsibility of every property owner to remove or paint over graffiti on his or her property within five (5) days. If the graffiti is not removed, the City can abate the graffiti and recover the costs from the property owner. However, a resident can sign a Release of Liability (waiver) with the City, and with the resident's permission and a signed waiver, the City will water blast or paint over the graffiti for free. If it is painted, please be aware that the color may not match.
