A. Discussion regarding graffiti in the city and enacting an anti -graffiti ordinance. Chief Stern presented an overview of the issue indicating that there was evidence of two distinct types of graffiti in our community. Those being the so called art form placed by taggers and a small amount of gang related material. At the present time existing enforcement is conducted under the malicious mischief provisions of code and is adequate for the purpose. Chief Stern noted that removal of graffiti is done in part by the city and in part by property owners depending on who owns the property in question. Edmonds Community Development Code, section 20.110.030, specifies that graffiti is a nuisance on private property and must be removed by the owner; however, it does not specify a time frame. A discussion was held on several options, including adding code to make it a crime to possess, purchase or furnish implements used to produce graffiti and formalizing abatement procedures. It was agreed that a time factor needed to be added to the existing code. The committee agreed that Chair Person Dawson would look further into the legislative aspect and consult the City Attorney. The matter will then be brought back to the Public Safety Committee on March 13, 2007. Action: On February 13, 2007 the Public Safety Committee met. Discussion was held regarding enacting an anti -graffiti ordinance. It was agreed by the committee that Chair Person Dawson would look into the legislative aspect and consult the City Attorney and that a time factor needed to be added to the existing code. This item to be brought back to Public Safety Committee on March 13, 2007. B. Review of 2007 Addendum to Prisoner Detention Agreement with the City of Lynnwood. Assistant Chief Compaan discussed the 2007 addendum to the Prisoner Detention Agreement with the City of Lynnwood. This is an annual addendum that covers the costs of the Whatcom County Cooperative Prisoner Transport, which provides a daily prisoner transport service that runs between Bellingham and Seattle. This service transports prisoners between the various jails along the I-5 corridor. The proportionate cost to the City of Edmonds for 2007 is $13,067.67 and that is already budgeted in the current Police General Fund budget.
