Graffiti Abatement Incidents

The Public Works Department operates a robust graffiti abatement program. Its strategic approach includes proactive abatement through directed patrols across the City. This “enterprise” approach strengthens the City’s commitment to prevention by aggressively removing graffiti in order to communicate that a clean city is valued.

This metric discourages repeat behavior. “Hot spot” areas frequently targeted by graffiti vandals are patrolled regularly with the overall goal of removing graffiti as soon as possible. In addition, the approach to data gathering and measuring has improved exponentially through the use of Tempe’s emerging Enterprise GIS system.
