Why was this issue closed in the city's system? Does this mean that it's not going to get cleaned up? https://www.stpaulonestop.com/AMANDA5/eNtraprise/StPaul/m3list/f_web_listfolders.jsp?lid=ReadOnlystpaul&PropertyRSN=230290

Still not cleaned up. If this sign is abandoned, can it be removed?

An email from SeeClickFix asked if the graffiti has been cleaned up. It hasn't. At some point is the sign considered abandoned? I was never able to find a permit for it with the city. It's frustrating to see graffiti on a giant, unprofessional-looking wooden sign held up by sandbags in our neighborhood for months at a time, in the middle of a parking lot that doesn't conform with any of the city's design requirements (visual barriers, green space, ground-water management, wheel stops, bike parking, trees, etc.) Please help us take care of our neighborhood by enforcing our ordinance about graffiti. We don't need absentee landlords encouraging additional graffiti by doing nothing about this.

Nothing has changed. We just had the Art Crawl and thousands of people had to walk by this graffiti on a giant, wooden FOR SALE sign. Please enforce the ordinance. And if this property owner still hasn't obtained a permit for this sign, please remove it.

Still there. Same property isn't clearing its sidewalks of snow and ice.

Sent sidewalk to St Paul Code Enforcement file # 13 255249. Sent Graffiti to Code Enforcement file # 13 255256.

This issue has been resolved

What does "resolved" mean? The graffiti is still there. See attached photo taken today. It has been for over six months now. Someone keeps closing this issue without actually requiring the property owner to remove the graffiti. Please don't close graffiti issues until someone actually verifies that the graffiti has been removed. At this point I'd recommend removing the sign altogether, since it was put up without a permit in the first place.

Thank you, reissued file # 14 088920.

1/23/14 The for sale sign is missing a little red paint under the “for Sale” writing but the graffiti is gone.
