Create new process for removing graffiti from public and private property

Why This Vote Matters

The council unanimously approved a new graffiti removal ordinance on first reading that creates clear enforcement procedures for the city's existing anti-graffiti rules. Under the new law, the city will have step-by-step processes to identify graffiti and require property owners to clean it up, giving officials stronger tools to maintain neighborhood cleanliness. This vote represents the first of two required readings before the ordinance becomes law. The measure is largely administrative, formalizing enforcement procedures rather than creating entirely new regulations.
