People create graffiti for a variety of reasons. Graffiti can be a random act of vandalism or deliberate communication between gang members. Regardless of the reason, it is important to remove graffiti as soon as it appears. Graffiti that is allowed to remain on any surface attracts more graffiti, causing the area to appear run down.

The purpose of the Graffiti Removal program is to assist and educate businesses or property owners about the removal of graffiti in a timely manner. Participating organizations encourage citizens to report the presence of graffiti and expedite its removal.

If you are a victim of graffiti in the Albany area, please call the Albany Police Department 541-917-7680.
