About this episode
The amount of illegal graffiti on Portland’s streets has exploded in recent years , but the city is trying to do its part. The Portland Police Bureau has several officers who spend part of their time investigating our city’s most prolific taggers, studying hundreds of tags and graffiti styles to bring down some of the more damaging crews. Today on City Cast Portland, we’re talking with Officer Nate Kirby-Glatkowski, a member of the Portland Police Bureau ’s Central Precinct Neighborhood Response Team. He has a unique insight into this issue, and actually has a few favorite taggers of his own. We’re doing our annual survey to learn more about our listeners. We’d be grateful if you took the survey at citycast.fm/survey —it’s only 6 minutes long. You’ll be doing us a big favor. Plus, anyone who takes the survey will be eligible to win a $250 Visa gift card and City Cast Portland swag. Become a member of City Cast Portland today! Get all the details and sign up here.
