Graffiti
The Service Chiltern District Provides
The presence of graffiti causes concern among the residents and traders alike.
The District Council has no obligation or responsibility to remove graffiti. However, we want to deter this kind of criminal damage and maintain the attractive appearance of our area.
The Council has procedures & conditions in place for removing graffiti, which are:
- For graffiti on Paradigm Housing property contact Paradigm directly (01494 830991).
- Private business are responsible for cleaning their own properties
- The removal of graffiti from Parish Council property will be considered on a case-by-case basis and will be dependent on funds available
- Railway bridges are the responsibility of RailTrack/London Underground to clean
- We will not remove graffiti off any utility boxes (electric, phone etc.). The company who owns them should be contacted directly and not via the District Council
- Buckinghamshire County Council have a project for removing graffiti from their bridges
The Council did have an allocated budget for graffiti removal but unfortunately that has now been spent, therefore the Council can no longer remove graffiti unless in certain circumstances where an assessment will be made and if warranted all efforts will be made to allocate some emergency funding.
The District Council has NO legal obligation to remove graffiti but we wish to keep it an attractive area to live, work & play in.
