What to do about Graffiti ?


Do you have graffiti in your neighborhood in Seattle and you are wondering what to do about it? Depends on if it is on private or public property according to an article in the PI. They also ran an article on what can be done about the problem. And the Stranger had an article awhile back about Seattle's Graffiti Rangers.

If you see someone actually tagging call 911 to report it. But it you don't actually catch someone in the act you can still call the police non emergency number to report it, even if it's on private property. That phone number is 206-625-5011 and I'm putting it in my cell phone soon. My New Years resolution is to report more graffiti in my neighborhood, will you join me?

You can also fill out an online form here, or call in a report to the city at (206) 684-7587
