Graffiti Removal
- Share via
Readers should know that an article on graffiti (“Getting Graffiti Off the Wall,” July 28) left out some information.
Los Angeles offers a $1,000 reward for the apprehension and conviction of persons engaged in graffiti vandalism. Since I authored this motion last year, more than one dozen citizens have collected the reward.
Additionally, more than 1,000 anti-graffiti signs have been posted by neighborhood organizations through another of my council motions. We have an additional 1,000 signs available for placement.
I sincerely believe that graffiti will be defeated through grass-roots involvement and community dedication. Residents should call their council office or Operation Cleansweep (213) 237-1997 for details.
HAL BERNSON, Los Angeles City Council
