  2. What is Graffiti? Graffiti is any form of painting, drawing, writing or marking on any property that has been carried out without the building owner’s permission. This is the important difference between authorised street art and illegal graffiti.

  3. How and where to report graffiti in Melbourne if you discover any acts of graffiti, the first thing to do to report graffiti in Melbourne is to contact your local police station. For graffiti removal, you can contact your local council. The City of Melbourne is committed to removing graffiti from private and public property.

  6. The benefits of reporting graffiti: Most graffiti is in the form of tags, which can be used as a means of identifying the graffiti artist. But if you report and photograph these tags, the pictures can be used as evidence against the tagger in the event they are arrested and tried in court. Reporting graffiti enables the police to gather information and to classify a particular area as a hotspot. This means the police can monitor and increase patrols in that particular area. Also, if an area has become a particular hotspot the council may consider planting trees or other vegetation. This makes graffiti-prone walls more difficult to access and less attractive to offenders. Alternatively, if it’s not possible to plant trees the council may consider anti-graffiti coatings for graffiti-prone walls to make it easier to remove the graffiti. Meanwhile, the council can offer support for community groups interested in addressing graffiti, including ‘adopt-a-space’ and ‘care-for-an-area’ projects.
