City of East Providence establishes tougher
graffiti ordinance
| |
|
EAST PROVIDENCE, RI – The City of East Providence Administration is taking a proactive stance against defacement and graffiti by amending the City’s ordinance with stronger language and fines to combat vandalism in the city. The amended ordinance was approved by the East Providence City Council on May 16, 2023.
Vandalism has been a growing concern in our community, defacing public and private properties, causing economic costs, and impacting the overall aesthetic appeal of our city.
In April, the City announced its establishment of the Graffiti Eradication Task Force to combat graffiti vandalism and encourage residents to report incidents for swift removal and investigation.
