Graffiti Removal
All buildings or property not owned by a municipal, county or state agency, is considered private property. It is the responsibility of the private property owner to remove reported graffiti in a reasonable amount of time. Call the Arlington Police Department at 425-407-3999 or online MyCrimeReport - Snohomish County Online Reporting Form to file a police report when graffiti appears on your property. Call 911 to report graffiti in progress. Graffiti vandals must be caught in the act to be prosecuted. Report graffiti and we will attempt to have volunteers cover the areas. City crews will cover the city properties.
