Graffiti Abatement Funds to be Cut

Currently the draft City of Portland budget included a 50% cut in funds to the graffiti abatement program. This loss of funds will put an end to free removal services to homeowners and small businesses. Already, the Abandoned Auto Hotline was saved from elimination due to public pressure on city council.

You are encouraged to submit your support for Graffiti Abatement to all of our city commissioners via phone, email or writing by the end of May. There will be a community budget forum on Thursday, May 21, 6:30-8:30, Mt. Tabor Middle School, 5800 SE Ash St.
Bus Routes: 20, 71, 15
