A large mural, commissioned by the Lakeview Chamber of Commerce with property tax dollars, was destroyed just days after the it was completed after it was mistaken as graffiti

quote:

“It was so obviously not a work of graffiti. It was clearly an intentional piece of city art,” said Terri Hanley, a neighbor. “I wish they would respond to rat complaints as quickly as they covered up this graffiti,” said Hanley.


Big waste of taxpayer money

First off, all newspaper/tv websites are just fricking terrible with the mobile ads

Secondly, it looked like a talented work of graffiti
