Vulgar calls for chaos, rebellion, and instigating gang-related activity
Vulgar calls for chaos, rebellion, and instigating gang-related activity
A few months ago (Beginning of September), I noticed spray paint graffiti on the front of the detached garage belonging to the house that I rent at 702 W. 13th St. My landlord asked that I file a report in addition to one that she filed (I believe for insurance purposes). Since this happened a little while ago, I'm happy to answer any follow up questions needed to file a report.

There is an abandoned building on the SE corner that needs to be torn down. What a mess. Why is this structure allowed to exist.
There is a poster display area on the corner of Kirkwood and Washington (the southwest corner) that has been tagged for the second time in the past couple weeks with the same symbol

The graffiti on the west wall of the College Ave railroad trestle is OUT OF CONTROL. It must be painted over or removed ASAP. What happened to the policy of removing or painting over graffiti as soon as it is seen and reported? Our former mayor Tomi Allison instituted this policy and it works because the criminals know their defacement will be removed or painted over before it has it's intended gang communication or political statement effect. College Ave is a street which gives a first impression to visitors, IU parents and students and countless others. Railroad trestle walls (like the one on East 10th Street just past Union St. that I complained multiple times about) are prime targets for graffiti criminals (public and private defacement is against the law) and must be dealt with by the citizens and police being alert and reporting incidents of it.
Not really graffiti but I was not sure what category to select. I am curious about the laws regarding posting advertisements on signs and other surfaces around the city. Is it allowed? Is the Poster required to come back and remove the sign after the event date has passed?
