SUBJECT
Consider adoption of an ordinance of the City of Denton, a Texas home-rule municipal corporation,
authorizing the City Manager to execute a contract with Robertson’s Outdoor Cleaning Solutions, LLC dba
Power Wash Plus, for graffiti abatement of public and private property; providing for the expenditure of
funds therefor; and providing an effective date (IFB 8145 – awarded to Robertson’s Outdoor Cleaning
Solutions, LLC dba Power Wash Plus, for a three (3) year term in the not-to-exceed amount of $75,000.00).
INFORMATION/BACKGROUND
Graffiti is declared to be a public nuisance in the Denton Property Maintenance Code of Ordinances Chapter
17. Because graffiti can have a serious negative impact on the community, all graffiti, regardless of its
location, must be removed or painted over as part of the Graffiti Abatement Program.
According to the ordinance, “the city shall have all remedies available at law and equity to abate such
nuisance.”
Graffiti abatement on private property is typically performed by a service provider contracted with the City
under the following conditions.
• Per State and City law, the City must offer to abate graffiti found on private property at no charge
to the property owner, or
• If the owner of the property has refused the offer of the city to remove the graffiti free of charge and
also fails to remove the graffiti within 15 days requiring the code enforcement officer to issue a
written notice for enforcement action and direct its removal.
Graffiti found on public property is addressed by Community Improvement Services (CIS). CIS manages
graffiti removal on City property, including drainage channels, sidewalks, streets, light poles, DME power
poles/boxes, traffic signal poles/boxes, and traffic signs. If CIS is unable to abate the graffiti, a service
provider is used to abate the graffiti on public property.
