Richard G. Patterson Mayor and City Council Impaired Only
March 23, 1994
TO: All Mayors of the State of California
FROM: Richard A. Lang, Mayor
SUBJECT: Graffiti Vandalism
On March 8, 1994 , the Modesto City Council adopted the enclosed
resolution which we feel is vital and necessary to address the
exploding problem of graffiti . Our resolution asks for the State
to amend the state law allowing for cities and other public
agencies to adopt ordinances imposing financial responsibility on
both the perpetrator and the parents of minor children who commit
acts of graffiti vandalism.
Up until now, only the individual property owner who was
vandalized by the graffiti could take steps and pursue
restitution through the court. Our proposal would allow for an
administrative process to be established, which would provide for
cleanup costs , as well an administrative fine up to $1, 000 from
the minor and the minor' s parents . This would remove the burden
of action from the court ' s, whose caseload is now currently
overwhelming.
If you would like to support this change in state law, we would
encourage you to contact your local state Senator and member of
the Assembly. We hope to have an introduced bill soon for this
legislation, and hopefully some relief to this serious issue.
Should you have any questions , or would like more information,
please call the City Manager' s Office, at ( 209 ) 577-5223 .
Sincerely,
CITY 0-ilapiSICIMOUn

MODESTO CITY COUNCIL
RESOLUTION NO. 94-149
A RESOLUTION URGING LOCAL LEGISLATORS TO
SUPPORT AN AMENDMENT TO STATE LAW ALLOWING
CITIES AND OTHER PUBLIC AGENCIES TO ADOPT
ORDINANCES IMPOSING FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
ON BOTH THE PERPETRATOR AND THE PARENTS OF
MINOR CHILDREN WHO COMMIT ACTS OF GRAFFITI
VANDALISM.
WHEREAS, the City Council desires to develop a new
ordinance which would deal effectively with the rampant graffiti
problem and which would make parents of minors who commit acts of
graffiti vandalism financially responsible for both restitution
and a fine, and
WHEREAS, it is possible that without a change in State
law, such an ordinance could be subject to challenge, and
WHEREAS, graffiti victims do have recourse against a
minor offender and the minor' s parents pursuant to Civil Code
Section 1714 . 1, as that section gives a victim the right to file
a civil action in court to recover damages of up to $10,000, and
WHEREAS, although victims do have recourse as stated
above, the City Council prefers to adopt its suggested
legislation as a preferable alternative because it provides for
an administrative procedure that is outside the overburdened
court system, a copy of the proposed legislation is attached
hereto entitled "New Government Code S53069 .4" , and
WHEREAS, existing law permits cities to clean up
graffiti with City funds, however, the City's proposed
legislation would go further to allow the City to recover the
-1-
03/10/94 OPON1G3W/CA/rh
clean-up costs plus an administrative fine of up to $1, 000 from
the minor and the minor' s parents in an administrative
proceeding, and
WHEREAS, in most cases if an administrative proceeding
is held, no court action would be required, as the administrative
order would have the same effect as a money judgment and could be
collected through a lien procedure on any real property owned by
the parent or parents,
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Council of the
City of Modesto that it hereby urges local legislators to support
an amendment to state law allowing cities and other public
agencies to adopt ordinances imposing financial responsibility on
both the perpetrator and the parents of minor children who commit
acts of graffiti vandalism, a copy of said proposed legislation
is attached hereto entitled "New Government Code S53069 .4" .

NEW GOVERNMENT CODE §53069 . 4
A. "Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
Government Code Section 53069 . 3, or Civil Code Section
1714 . 1, or Penal Code Sections 594 (a) ( 1 ) , 640 . 5(a) , or
640 . 6, a city, county, or city and county, (hereinafter
"local public entity" ) may provide by ordinance for
payment of an administrative fine and for restitution
by both the minor, and the parent or parents having
custody and control of such minor, administratively
found to have created or caused graffiti as that term
is defined in Government Code Section 53069 . 3 . Such
fines may include or separately state all costs
reasonably incurred by the local public entity in
removing, cleaning up or covering over the minor' s
graffiti . The administrative proceeding may be held
upon ten ( 10) days notice as provided in subdivision
(c) to such minor and/or parent as the case may be,
providing an opportunity to be heard before the
legislative body of such entity or hearing officer
appointed by it .
B. Any fine or restitution ordered pursuant to this
section shall be irrespective of and cumulative to any
criminal conviction for an act of graffiti, or any
final adjudication by a juvenile court, or placement on
a supervised program by a probation officer under the
provisions of the Welfare and Institutions Code for
such act. Provided further, that in no event may the
combined sum of restitution and any fine ordered to be
paid pursuant to an ordinance passed in accordance with
this section exceed the amount of the actual costs as
determined by the local public entity to remove, cover
or repair the graffiti by more than $1, 000 . 00 .
Any administrative order made pursuant to an ordinance
adopted pursuant to this section shall have the same
force and effect for enforcement and collection
purposes as an order or judgment of the Superior Court
of the State of California . In addition, the ordinance
may provide for the collection of such sum by the
creation of a lien on any parcel of property owned by
the minor or the parents or parent having custody and
control of the minor as set forth in subdivision (c) .
C. An ordinance creating the lien authorized by
subdivision (b) shall require at least ten ( 10) days
notice prior to the recordation of the lien to the
owner of record of the parcel of land. The notice
shall be served in the same manner as summons in a
civil action in accordance with Article 3 (commencing
with section 415 . 10 ) of Chapter 4 of Title V of Part 2
of the Code of Civil Procedure. If the owner of
record, after a diligent search cannot be found, the
notice may be served by posting a copy thereof in a
conspicuous place upon the property for a period of ten
( 10) days and publication thereof in a newspaper of
general circulation published in the county in which
the property is located pursuant to Section 6062 .
( 1) A lien authorized by this section shall be
recorded in the county recorder' s office in
the county in which the parcel of land is
located and from the date of recording shall
have the force, effect, and priority of a
judgment lien. The lien authorized by this
section shall specify the amount of the lien,
the name of the agency on whose behalf the
lien is imposed, the date of the
administrative order referred to in
subdivision (b) , the street address, legal
description and assessor' s parcel no. of the
parcel on which the lien is imposed, and the
name and address of the recorded owner of the
parcel .
(2) In the event that the lien is discharged,
released, or satisfied, either through
payment or through foreclosure, notice of the
discharge containing the information
specified in subdivision (c) shall be
recorded by the governmental agency. The
lien authorized by this section and the
release of the lien shall be indexed in the
grantor-grantee index.
( 3) The lien authorized by this section may be
collected in the manner provided by Sections
39581 and 39583 of the Government Code.
