Description

The building owned by St Anne's next to the church has been tagged again. Hope the clean up is speedier than last time.

This is only one of many spots hit recently by uninspired, talentless people (one person?) with spray paint.

Short term: we need property owners (church is considered public since they don't pay taxes) and KNOX to get out there and remove the spray paint markings in this neighborhood with the speed one would expect if these were in Downtown. We could also use more patrols, not so much for the graffiti, but because there has been all-around more undesirable activity in the neighborhood in the last few months.

Long Term: Create some murals in spots that are frequently tagged. Offer some street art workshops at Pope Park Rec Center and/or library. <-- Maybe this is something SAMA could step up to offer. We could also get our electrical boxes painted fancy like they did along Franklin Avenue.
