Caledon OPP are investigating after property was damaged at Forks of the Credit Provincial Park.
On February 8th, various signage was torn down, and others were covered with graffiti.
Since December 2023, several instances of vandalism have been reported at the park, resulting in thousands of dollars of damage.
How does Graffiti effect my community?
Contrary to popular belief, Graffiti is not a victimless crime. If ignored, it can:
· Leave the impression that no one cares
· Lead to increased graffiti and crime
· Loss of business growth and tourism
· Clean up can divert tax dollars from community programs and services
· Harm prosperity and reduce property values
· Decrease residents feelings of safety
If I’m a property or business owner, how can I prevent Graffiti?
· Install video surveillance equipment
· Increase lighting and visibility in vulnerable locations
· Restrict access to walls by planting shrubs or trees
If you have any information regarding this, or other instances of vandalism, please report them by calling the OPP.
