SDLP councillor Angela Dobbins
Her comments follow a spate of graffiti slogans and ‘tags’ which have been daubed on a number of utility boxes and bus shelters throughout Culmore.
Said Cllr Dobbins: “This graffiti has caused a lot of anger and shows the complete disregard and contempt those responsible have towards the settled community in Culmore.
“Those involved are defying their own community and diverting resources away from other services.
“They need to realise that this is criminal damage and will have consequences.
“I would urge those responsible to stop this reckless behaviour – what they may consider a ‘bit of fun’ actually costs others time and money to repair.
“I have arranged for council to repaint the council-owned bus shelters and have contacted the utility providers to address their boxes,” she added.
