Fast response crucial in preventing graffiti vandalism

If you see graffiti, report it immediately to the graffiti removal hotline, (805) 449-2488, or send an e-mail to the city of T.O. at PublicWorksMSC@toaks.org. 

Anyone reporting graffiti is asked to provide:

•Address or street name and cross street of the incident. A detailed description will help crews locate the graffiti quickly.

•The type of structure or object the graffiti is on.

•Your name and phone number, in case crews cannot locate the graffiti.    Public works crews do not remove graffiti in unincorporated county areas of the city. Instead, the county should be notified at (805) 672-2131.

Public works crews inspect the 101 and 23 freeways for graffiti on a daily basis. If graffiti is found, the California Department of Transportation (CalTrans) is notified at (805) 389-1106.
