Removing and reporting graffiti

When an individual or neighborhood becomes involved in active and frequent removal of graffiti, it sends a message to offenders that their destructive graffiti and other activities will not be tolerated. Please submit a report online through ServiceWorks or call the graffiti hotline at 303-774-4327. Calls will be responded to Monday through Friday within 48 hours. If you see graffiti in progress, call 9-1-1. Useful information you can provide includes a description of those involved and their vehicle description (if there is one). Do not approach those involved in what you believe is an illegal activity. More information on graffiti removal can be found on longmontcolorado.gov and searching “graffiti.”
