Public given right to decide whether graffiti is art or eyesore
People living in Bristol may be asked to vote on whether graffiti should be left on buildings or removed, in an attempt to promote street artists.
Under the plan, the city council will ask the public to decide whether murals are art or graffiti tags.
As part of a street art policy, council contractors will not take action if people vote to keep wall paintings.
The proposal will be debated at a meeting of Bristol City Council on 15 September.
