The Village Graffiti Reduction Program funds the removal graffiti from businesses and public areas in the Lane Cove LGA. This program aims to maintain the ambience of the main village precincts by ensuring graffiti is removed promptly, reducing adverse economic impact on Lane Cove businesses and the community. Graffiti is removed at no cost to the business however the graffiti must be able to be accessed from a public place (accessible from the street etc.).
Prompt reporting of graffiti vandalism leads to prompt graffiti removal, which in turn can reduce the likelihood of more graffiti vandalism.
