Less than 500 meters away from Mayor Jaime Martínez's office lies a haven for graffiti artists, or a nightmare for home and shop owners. Calle Sindicato and its surrounding alleys epitomize how a premier tourist city can resemble a neglected area abandoned by authorities.

Graffiti is not a minor nuisance. It defaces buildings, reduces values and drives people from areas where it proliferates (because it denotes a lack of security). In short it is criminal damage and the perpetrators must be severely dealt with. It's good to see the Council finally recognising this.
