Consultation process

The issue with graffiti has been identified by partners as a high priority for the Communities Partnership (also known as the Community Safety Partnership). Police statistics indicate that graffiti is a significant issue in Cheltenham, contributing to a sense of disorder and increased fear of crime. Studies from other regions have shown that consistent graffiti removal and community engagement can lead to a reduction in overall crime rates and an improvement in public perceptions of safety.

Finance Comments: CBC will be working in partnership to deliver the project to the full value of the grant. As a result, this should have no implication on CBC finances and budgets.
