Graffiti Taskforce – Things You Can Do

1. Get educated! Learn about graffiti, and how it impacts your community.
2. Report graffiti to the GAP Hotline (805) 385-8010, and the Oxnard Police Department (805) 385-7600.
3. Partner with the City of Oxnard to organize a “paint-out” in your neighborhood to remove graffiti.
4. Remove graffiti within 24-48 hours of its appearance.
5. Ask the City of Oxnard for a Graffiti Action Kit (GAK) and coordinate a graffiti awareness campaign in your neighborhood.
6. “Adopt a Wall” in the community or your neighborhood and make sure it stays clean and free of graffiti.
7. Plant trees or other greenery near a graffiti plagued wall. This will help prevent access.
8. Install lighting in areas that are dark and often hit with graffiti. Pick up trash and keep your neighborhood clean.
9. Make a difference. Join other residents and the City of Oxnard and become a Graffiti Task Force Volunteer. Call the Graffiti Hotline to find out how.
10. Go to the national anti-graffiti website at [www.graffitihurts.org] to learn more about what other communities are doing to keep their communities clean.
