Having incarcerated individuals clean your property from graffiti has passed its first reading at last night’s Township meeting. Should the second reading in the next Township meeting pass, residential properties targeted with gang-related graffiti will be included in the August 25th graffiti cleanup, as first reported here yesterday.
Committeeman Meir Lichtenstein tells TLS, he expects the second reading to pass during the next Township meeting, which is scheduled for August 19th.
Why not require all sellers of spray paint to take down the identity of purchasers. I think this was done in New York in Guilliani ‘s time and it had a positive effect.
That is a cute idea… However anyone could buy the spray paint, I think it would be a bit hard to track down the actual graffiti artist
True, but it creates a trail of evidence and, obviously, a deterrence factor.
why not go after the root cause here stop renting to this group of criminals , yes it has to be cleaned up but it will happen again if the town doesnt address what the real problem is , this is just a symptom that needs a solution not a band aid
