Belfast City Council is to look at “naming and shaming” public companies that do not clear graffiti on their buildings.
Councillors at a City Hall committee this week agreed to look at developing “memorandums of understanding” with utility companies, telecoms companies, government departments and other public bodies to quickly remove graffiti.
It comes from a motion proposed by SDLP Botanic Councillor Gary McKeown during the council’s People and Communities Committee monthly meeting. It states: “This council recognises the impact graffiti has on communities in terms of the environment and appearance of an area, but also on the wellbeing of residents.
