Report graffiti to the city with online form
The Marysville Graffiti Task Force is now providing an online form for submitting reports of graffiti vandalism in the city.

A law approved by the city last year allows the city to levy fines of $25 for anyone who does not clean graffiti from their property within four days.
The new online form also provides a way to submit photos.
