Graffiti Abatement

Graffiti Removal Program

Help us maintain our public spaces graffiti free!

Our Graffiti Mobile allows both power-washing of graffiti and color paint matching to cover it. Our crew must obtain a legal waiver from a private property owner or authorized agent before abating graffiti on their property. The Graffiti Abatement program is offered at no charge to the District’s assessment- paying property owners.

If you have graffiti on your property or see graffiti elsewhere that you would like to removed, please contact the District at 713-895-8021 and we’ll make sure it’s addressed.

Litter Abatement

NNMD De-Litter Campaign

NNMD kicked off its litter abatement program in March 2016 after a law enforcement official remarked that the District "...didn't have a crime problem, it had a litter problem." Litter in our area gave the appearance of neglect. The District instituted a contract litter abatement program with regular routes along our commercial corridors. In the first month, 3,200 pounds of litter (1.6 tons) and 175 "bandit" signs were removed; that totaled almost 93 pounds of trash per mile. With cleaner streets and sidewalks, the "pounds per mile" has decreased – a sure sign of increased pride in our area.

Camera Program at NNMD

Community safety is the driving force at Near Northwest Management District. NNMD has installed surveillance cameras to monitor activities on and around public spaces.

"NNMD's forward-thinking strategy is an asset to our contract with the District. Our Constables have direct access to the equipment and can use the recordings to aid in any investigation. This joint effort with the District is an asset to the entire community!" said Captain Hennessy from Harris County Precinct 1 Constables.

This program provides additional resources to our law enforcement and has been instrumental in many investigations around the District. The added value of the program warrants additional sites to be installed around the District.

"Our force is spread thin along the fourth largest city in the country; we are diligent and with the aid of technology provided by NNMD the video monitoring has assisted our efforts to eradicate crime in our area," said Commander Harlan Harris of the Houston Police North Patrol Station.

NNMD is committed to providing technology and resources that will enhance the success of law enforcement in the Near Northwest Community.
