Graffiti

Graffiti is vandalism and is illegal. It is writing or drawings scribbled, scratched or spray painted on walls and other surfaces without permission of the property owner. It is usually in a public place. It does not include chalk drawings on footpaths.

Council has a zero-tolerance policy towards graffiti on our buildings and facilities.
