For a long while the owners of this building had been keeping up with the constant task of painting over the work of taggers. It seem like it has been at least a month with nothing done and it is getting excessive again.

How can we get these kids from other cities to stop coming to Oakland to tag buildings in our neighborhood is the real question.

City of Oakland Public Works Agency referred this issue to CODE ENFORCEMENT, service request # 506245.Please contact that agency to follow-up, see “Other Helpful Links” at:
