Comments on: MAYOR HOTLINE Oct 2 to 6 https://boiseguardian.com/2006/10/11/mayor-hotline-oct-2-to-6/ A different slant on the news. Mon, 16 Oct 2006 02:48:47 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 By: boisecynic https://boiseguardian.com/2006/10/11/mayor-hotline-oct-2-to-6/#comment-2989 Mon, 16 Oct 2006 02:48:47 +0000 https://boiseguardian.com/wp/?p=472#comment-2989 Guardian; you should leave the graffiti comments in. I know that we have a common goal of a better Boise and graffiti is one problem we absolutely cannot ignore—–it’s on an equal footing with bad development, and shady tax deals, in my opinion. Sure, we regular readers of your Mayor’s hotline transcripts know about the numerous complaints, but, and this may come as a shock to you, not everyone knows about or reads boiseguardian.com.

My point is, in a word, google. Anyone doing searches related to Boise may eventually come across your site. AFAIK there are no other online transcripts of the Mayor’s hotline. Thus, by deleting the graffiti complaints, one might assume there is no graffiti problem in Boise.

BTW, Channel 6’s top story Sunday night at 10pm was about graffiti, did anyone catch it? Funny, because I just painted over some more today. All by myself. The one place that I’ve been trying to keep free of graffiti is quite a few blocks from my home, but in a very visible location. The useless neighbors sure don’t do anything.

After I picked myself off the floor I think I decided someone either can’t spell or this was an innocent typo. This person must work for the Statesman.

Boise needs to double their efforts on removing it or it will increase. Also graffiti is not just punks, it is frequently gangs, so graffiti can be an indicator of more severe crime to come if not addressed.

EDITOR NOTE–You are correct on all counts. It just didn’t seem to serve a purpose to have all the “repeat customer” entries. City still does their thing and responds.

A few more calls from folks like Mica Holloway, the foul-mouthed (apparently) disabled person, and Mayor Dave might decide not to seek a second term!

I realized the mayor’s office had a Graffiti Team… do they also have a Urine-and-Feces Team? (No wonder taxes are so high! You’re not gonna find people – outside of illegal immigrants, anyway – willing to clean up that kinda stuff from moldy basements for minimum wage!)

Hey Carrie, your boyfriend’s getting served with complaints because he’s letting his friends use his place to party. God and the rest of the universe are tired of it….
