The City of Cathedral City contracts with Graffiti Protective Coatings to eradicate graffiti on public and private surfaces within 24 to 48 hours after it is reported. This wonderful service is important to keep the aesthetics of our community clean and safe and eliminate any message that is deemed derogatory.
If you see graffiti on a building, sign, or wall, then please report it by using the “GoRequest” app that can be downloaded for free on any smartphone or tablet from the app store. Once there, click on “New Issue” then select “Public Works” and then select “Graffiti”. Once on the Graffiti page, it will allow you to take a photo of the graffiti and use your GPS location to pinpoint the graffiti’s exact location. Once submitted, you will receive a notification that the issue has been recorded and you will also receive a notification later when the issue has been closed.
Best of all, Graffiti Protective Coating will cover the graffiti using the closest paint match as possible. Please know that if graffiti occurs on private property, the graffiti eradication service is provided at no-cost to the owner.
If you prefer not to use a smartphone to report graffiti, you can also report it online at https://www.cathedralcity.gov/i-want-to/service-request then click on “Public Works” then click on “Graffiti.” You may also report by telephone by calling Public Works at 760-770-0390.
