Crime Prevention: City of Clovis to Assist Property Owners with Graffiti Removal

Graffiti vandalism costs the Clovis community countless dollars per year due to its negative impact on property values and business. The City is seeking the public’s assistance in addressing graffiti and tagging in the community. Graffiti removal is provided by the City at no cost to the property owner. City Code Compliance asks property and business owners to report instances of graffiti as follows:

• Step 1: Report graffiti to the Clovis Police Department by calling (575) 769-1921. This step is important in preventing graffiti from returning to the property in the future.
• Step 2: Property or business owners must sign a graffiti removal waiver, which is located at www.cityofclovis.org, before any City intervention may take place. Completed forms should be signed and emailed to graffiticomplaints@cityofclovis.org, faxed to (575) 763-9641 or mailed to 1221 Mitchell St., Clovis, NM 88101.

Once Code Compliance has received the signed waiver, they will take action to paint over the markings.

If a member of the public sees graffiti on property that they do not own and would like to report it, or for general questions, regarding graffiti removal, please contact Code Compliance at (575) 763-9641.
