The Sheriff’s Office says crews painted over and pressure washed graffiti at 10 locations around town.
WHITE CITY, Ore. — Jackson County deputies and partner agencies spent several hours last week cleaning up graffiti and clearing overgrown weeds at multiple locations around White City.
The Jackson County Sheriff’s Office said graffiti remains a persistent issue in the community and is asking residents to report vandalism when they see it happening.
Teams from the JCSO White City Community Action Team, Corrections deputies, Jackson County Roads and Parks, and Community Justice worked together to identify areas needing attention in and around White City.
According to the Sheriff’s Office, crews painted over and pressure washed graffiti at 10 locations around town. Teams also cleared overgrown weeds to improve access along sidewalks and bike paths while improving the appearance of surrounding areas.
The cleanup included fences, signs and other public-facing areas affected by graffiti.
JCSO said the effort is part of a broader push to address nuisance issues in White City while encouraging residents to report vandalism when it occurs.
Anyone who sees vandalism being committed is asked to call Emergency Communications of Southern Oregon non-emergency dispatch at 541-776-7206 to report the crime to a deputy.
