Grafitti
Hello fellow Bridgeporters! There has been a recent increase in the amount of grafitti in the area, especially the Morgan and Carpenter Streets. Please help out and call 311 and tell them where the grafitti is located and they will have it removed for no charge! Grafitti does not have to be on your property to report it, you just need the address where it is located. You can feel good knowing that you are beautifying the neighborhood by calling it in, and best of all it won't cost you a dime!
