Who removes graffiti?

• A. Public Safety
• B. City Clerk
• C. Public Works
• D. Parks and Recreation

Answer: (C)

Graffiti removal is a maintenance task tied to keeping city infrastructure in good repair. Public Works oversees cleaning and maintaining streets, sidewalks, public buildings, and other municipal property, and it has the crews and equipment to remove paint and restore surfaces. While Public Safety may respond to vandalism and City Clerk handles records, the actual cleanup falls to Public Works as the department responsible for city infrastructure upkeep. Parks and Recreation would handle graffiti within parks if labeled to that area, but the general responsibility for removing graffiti across city property is Public Works.
