Why Get Involved?
 The key to getting rid of graffiti is to clean it up as quickly as possible. Experts call it the broken window theory. The longer you leave the mark of vandals visible, the more graffiti youll likely see in your neighborhood. Cleanup requires community effort.
-
Clark County has a small staff of full-time painters dedicated to graffiti removal. Our Graffiti Abatement Program assists with the removal of graffiti vandalism from private residential properties. However, property owners must give permission before Clark County can cover graffiti. In many cases its much faster for citizens to erase the vandalism themselves.
