Presentation, we dont have those in the city of vancouver. We dont allow that. So, all murals have to go through a permit system. So, any building that wants to put something up, they have to get like a permit from the city. And if the city finds something that they dont like and it doesnt have a permit, theyll take it down and charge them on their taxes. So, thats i think a very key component to any ordinance that would be enacted in the city that you want to control the image making. This is n...

Neighbors where one had painted a sunflower on her garage and the other neighbor didnt like it. And the officer clearly made the distinction it was put on with permission. So, permission is considered in the decisionmaking process, but its not an overall factor. So, if the by law officer had determined that that was a nuisance, the Property Owner would have been forced to remove it, but in this situation made a determination that it wasnt a nuisance, that it was put on, it wasnt detracting from ...

Number one, was safe if they got the right training and number two, could do the job that we needed to have done. It worked out great. So. [speaker not understood]. Hold on a second. Let me come over here so you can restate the first part of your question again if i could get you to stand up and well talk to the San Francisco Police Department here. First part of my question was perhaps more urgent. We represent this table, and over here oakland california. And youre aware of the violent nature ...

Them and we made sure that if there were that they knew if there was anything out there, somebody watching them or a gang area, a gang tag, we didnt want them dealing with that. They he should call it into our staff and well take care of it for them. We had absolutely zero in 10 years issues with liability, none, not one. Not only thats correct but we put every volunteer on our citys Workers Compensation program, every single one. So, if there was a problem they were covered under the citys work...

Almost identical to what tyra is talking about doing here. Its similar to public art murals, but similar in scope. When we were doing our murals, almost 200 of them, there was no permit in place, but there was a selection process. And, so, if that was the heritage property, that had to go to heritage. And they had to decide whether or not that building had been painted and if a mural would go there. If so, did it work with the heritage esthetics, et cetera, et cetera. It also goes to the Communi...

Have this piece of graffiti on our property and i dont feel its a nuisance and im not going to remove it . And we havent had any problems actually whatsoever with our graffiti by law being challenged. How the by law works is that our by law officers, any graffiti that comes up is at their discretion. So, whether they determine what is on the property is a nuisance and it allows us to keep our Mural Programs running. It allows us to look at individual situations. Early on we had one situation whe...

Of our forms and criteria that they go through and the Property Owners are also required to sign off a form giving the volunteer Agency Permission to paint their building. So, were distancing ourselves from that so we dont have a problem. Before i became a consul ant i was with city of san jose antigraffiti for 10 year. We ended up with over 3,400 graffiti volunteers. Thats a big number. And the number of first of all, we did a good job training them and we made sure that if there were that they...
