Graffiti at Oak & 20th Streets

[Jennifer Gniffke]

We in Greater Green Gables see the "22st" 'tag' often as well - but I don't 
know who is responsible for it.  We've seen it for a few months now 
throughout the neighborhood.  Greater Green Gables is east of the 51 
freeway, between McDowell and Thomas.  Let's make sure to report these 
quickly to Graffiti Busters - or paint-over the graffiti ourselves - and 
together we can dissuade 'taggers' (as I'm told they lose interest in 
tagging a neighborhood if it's painted-over quickly).  Kudos to you for 
taking-on the painting yourself!!
Officer Smith has jumped into her new role as Community Action Officer with 
TONS of enthusiasm.  We just met her at our neighborhood meeting this past 
Tuesday, and know already that she is an asset to our area!  It's great to 
hear she's partnering with you on this project.  Let me know if you need any 
more information from the 'other side' (of the 51).

Vice President, Greater Green Gables Neighborhood Association
