Corrective Action: While we sympathize that you as a business/property owner are a victim of this vandalism, you have the responsibility to correct the problem by removing or painting over the graffiti as soon as it appears on your property. Many cities have discovered that a quick response in removing graffiti often discourages the vandals from "tagging" the property again. In many instances when the graffiti is removed, retagging reoccurs. Graffiti removal may be ongoing until the vandals give up, because of your efforts. We are requesting that you remove all graffiti from your property. (see enclosed photos) The City and your neighbors thank you for your cooperation in this matter.
