Dublin City Council BIDs to "get rid of graffitti": audio

category dublin | rights, freedoms and repression | news report author Wednesday March 01, 2006 15:56author by saoririseoir Report this post to the editors

They think the writing's on the Wall



it is proposed by the DCBA that cleaner streets and no graffitti lead to less crime.

To this end, Dublin City Council is unanymous in wanting to go into partnership with them.

Two elements to anti-graffitti plan: a)., a third machine for "cleaning" the walls, and b)., employing proffessional artists to do murals, because, " If we paint on side of buildings, graffitti artists don’t like defacing other artists work, so this’ll stop ‘em…"

At last month's Dublin City Council meeting (Feb 6th, 2006), a presentation was given by Dublin City Business Association which etoled the virtues of BIDs (Business Improvement Districts).

Cllr. Anne Carter (Lab) was not alone in the unqualified welcome she gave to latest initiative from Dublin City Businesss Acssociation in cahootz with Dublin Cicy Council, but she was enthused at its plans to get rid of the "big problem" of graffitti.

the Council appears to be unanymously supportive of the project, and what happened last month was only a (lengthy) update.
