English (US)   Utilitarian Graffiti  -  Categories: Neighborhoods  -  @ 08:27:44 pm

Several utilities boxes across the district had alien-looking decorations until Code Enforcement covered the scribbles.
Graffiti

 
Over the last few months, District 1 residents have spotted graffiti-marked utility boxes and have reported it to Code Enforcement. Except for the obvious one or two that are marking the boxes, the rest of us would like to keep the district looking as nice as we can. I'm sure the "artists" (and I use that term very loosely) take some pride in their work but it looks like alien scribblings to me.
 
There may be more out there that together we've overlooked. Please keep an eye for these scribblings of little green men and report it to Code at (972) 485-6400.
 
Our objective is to get it covered in 24 hours. I haven't checked the latest stats but I know the response times are very good. Code Officers can't carry every color of paint with them so the cover color might possibly be as different and noticeable as the graffiti, but the graffiti will be gone and, eventually, the utility company will repaint the box to its original color.
 
Thanks for your help keeping our neighborhoods nice!
 
[PS If you're one of those "artists," you can call Code, too. They are looking for volunteers; they have plenty of things that need painted and cleaned. And you won't get in trouble for helping.]
