The Prescott Valley Police Department has seen an increase in the number of graffiti reports in recent weeks. These childish displays of urban decay not only detract from the local beauty we have here, they bring notoriety to otherwise talentless individuals. It is criminal damage to “tag” another’s property, even publicly owned property. Prescott Valley PD follows up on all leads related to graffiti and prioritizes its removal. When arrested, these would-be artists are prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
There are several ways to report graffiti in Prescott Valley. The easiest way is through the OurPV app on your phone. OurPV is available on both Android and iOS systems, as well as on our website at https://www.prescottvalley-az.gov/1199/OurPV-App. This process puts an issue directly to the local graffiti abatement team. The other way is to call the PVPD non-emergency dispatch line at (928) 772-9267 and place a call for service. When the police and community work together, we can preserve our town’s beauty for our citizens and visitors alike.
Prescott Valley Police Department can be contacted at (928) 772-9267 for non-emergencies, 911 for emergencies. Yavapai County Silent witness is 1-800-932-3232. IF YOU SEE SOMETHING, SAY SOMETHING!

There is a BIG difference between kid pranks with a spray can and the tagging by gangs for territory boundaries. The police departments know this and should be acting on the difference.
This is but a further indication of growth NOT being in the best interests of the residences.. Elect persons who support the residents and not growth for growth’s sake as we have now on the PV council.
A large number of rentals in PV attract low income which attracts drug use which attracts crime which amounts to a very unsafe community! PV? Never!
