親愛的讀者們:

上週,我們與公務局、商業和社區領袖一起,為社區商業走廊的店舖和其他私人物業啟動了三藩市新的塗鴉清理計劃。

該試點計劃將致力於減輕參與的業主從其建築物中移除塗鴉的財務負擔,允許專業的公務局人員或承辦商以零成本清除受塗鴉影響的物業和商戶。

為期兩年的試點計劃注入額外撥款聘請新的六人工作小組人員之前,公務局只專注於清除在公共道路上和公用場所上的塗鴉,如標誌柱和擋土牆。

根據市府法律,私人物業主有責任及時清除塗鴉。 公務局檢查員每年都會回覆透過三藩市311客戶服務中心提出的數百起塗鴉投訴。

有興趣獲得清除塗鴉服務的業主和商戶應透過311客戶服務中心提出申請。 當局將專注於清除從公共道路可見的大樓外部的塗鴉。 試點計劃不包括修復受損的壁畫、破爛的窗戶和被酸玷汙的窗戶。 此外,正在建設或正在翻新的房產上的塗鴉都被排除在計劃之外。

在為期兩年的試點階段中,公務局將衡量資源是否能充分滿足需求以及減少塗鴉工作的有效性,以便市長和市參事可以制定下一步計劃。

這個塗鴉清除計劃只是幫助社區的工作一部份。隨著三藩市繼續經濟復甦的努力,我們必須繼續專注於保持市內的安全和清潔,同時繼續支援市內的小商業,確保它們蓬勃發展。

Graffiti removal program

My Fellow San Franciscans,

Last week, along with Public Works, and business and community leaders, we launched the City’s new courtesy graffiti abatement program for storefronts and other private properties in neighborhood commercial corridors.

The pilot program will work to relieve participating property owners of the financial burden of removing tags from their buildings, instead allowing professional Public Works crews or City contractors access to wipe out graffiti at zero cost to the effected property and business owners, and help small businesses and property owners facing the expense of removing unwanted graffiti that create an unwelcoming environment.

Prior to the infusion of extra funding for the two-year pilot to bring aboard a new six-person crew to staff the new operation, Public Works focused solely on removing graffiti from public property, such as sign posts and retaining walls, in the public right of way.

Under City law, private property owners are responsible for removing graffiti in a timely manner. Public Works inspectors respond to hundreds of graffiti complaints every year lodged through the City’s 311 customer service center.

Property and business owners interested in receiving a courtesy abatement should make a request through the 311 customer service center. The City will focus on removing graffiti that is on the exterior of properties visible from the public right of way. The pilot program will not include the restoration or repair of tagged murals, etched windows and windows defaced with acid. In addition, graffiti on properties that are under construction or being renovated are excluded from the program.

During the two-year pilot, Public Works will track whether the level of resources adequately meets the demand and the efficacy of the effort in reducing graffiti so the mayor and supervisors can determine next steps.

This graffiti abatement program is just one part of that effort but it will really help our neighborhoods and our City. As San Francisco continues our recovery efforts, it’s critical that we stay focused on keeping our city safe and clean, while also continue to support our small businesses to ensure they thrive.

London N. Breed

Mayor
