We are a group of residents who said "enough" with the illegal dumping and litter on our streets and banded together to pick up trash from our neighborhood, prevent illegal dumping, remove graffiti and keep our community safe. Beautification at its best!

Explosion of Graffiti in our Neighborhood

The number of tags in our neighborhood has at least tripled in the last month.   I assumed that owners would quickly clean this mess from their properties, but instead this vandalism has remained.  By its very presence, it attracts more graffiti and fosters an environment comfortable for criminals.  Something must be done about this disturbing trend.  Not only do the taggers need to be caught but also the city needs to press property owners to clean up tagging on their property.
