How does graffiti vandalism<br />
affect individuals, communities<br />
and the City <strong>of</strong> <strong>Calgary</strong>?<br />
<strong>Graffiti</strong> vandalism is more than<br />
just words or symbols sprayed.<br />
<strong>Graffiti</strong> without permission is<br />
an act <strong>of</strong> vandalism that costs<br />
millions <strong>of</strong> dollars to remove, or<br />
cover, every year.<br />
If not immediately removed, graffiti<br />
vandalism sends out a message<br />
that “nobody cares” about the<br />
area. This creates an open invitation<br />
for other graffiti. It may also<br />
lead to an increase in other crimes<br />
and/or acts <strong>of</strong> violence.<br />
What is <strong>Graffiti</strong> Vandalism?<br />
<strong>Graffiti</strong> vandalism is figures, letters, drawings or stickers applied, scribbled, scratched, etched,<br />
sprayed or attached on or to the surface <strong>of</strong> any premises, structure, or other property without<br />
permission. <strong>Graffiti</strong> vandalism is a crime and carries serious consequences.<br />
