§ 5-31.01. Purpose.

Latest version.

The City Council finds that unwanted graffiti, on public and private properties, is a blighting factor on neighborhoods, encourages other acts of malicious vandalism and crime, and depreciates the value of adjacent and surrounding properties. The City Council further finds and declares that graffiti is a public nuisance effecting the health, safety, and welfare of the City's residents. The purpose of this chapter is to reduce and eliminate incidents of graffiti and provide for the prompt abatement of graffiti from public and private properties in the City.
