TAG-OUT
Graffiti Abatement Pilot Program
To Report Graffiti call 757-664-6510
In an effort to rid our city of this unsightly destruction, and to take a more aggressive stance with graffiti abatement, the City has established a Graffiti Abatement Pilot Program—TAG-OUT. This program will be piloted in the area with the highest concentration of incidences of graffiti. The program seeks to eradicate graffiti in the pilot area within 1 day, when possible. The program includes both public and private property. Additionally, a graffiti hotline has been established so that incidents can be addressed quickly. The City will initiate agreements with volunteers, civic leagues, and residents to establish procedures, levels of commitment, rules, and responsibilities associated with the program.
The goal of the TAG-OUT program is to work directly with concerned
residents, business-owners and community based agencies to
identify, report and remove graffiti from public and private
spaces.
HOW CAN YOU HELP?
Report areas and locations of
graffiti to the Hotline at 757-664-6510. Please include the address of the tagged site/or the closest intersection.
Provide property owners with tags on their property within
the TAG-OUT Pilot Area with the Graffiti Removal
Consent Form.
The consent form will allow the
City to remove graffiti from
private property without a charge to the property owner. Please
note that the Consent Form must be completed by the property’s
owner/agent before any work can be completed by the City. ORIGINAL signature is
required. Do not send copies.
