Pause painting over murals until new public art policy is created
In Plain English
The city currently allows property owners to paint over existing murals on their buildings. This moratorium stops that practice temporarily while the city develops a community-based policy for public art. The pause protects murals from being removed until residents have input on how the city should handle public art in the future.
