PB Town Council slates graffiti cleanup The Pacific Beach Town Council will host its fourth annual Graffiti Cleanup Day on Saturday, April 2 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Pacific Beach Presbyterian Church, located at 1675 Garnet Ave. Town Council members said volunteers are needed and will be provided with all the supplies and training. Participants under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an adult, and students can earn community service hours. In previous years, volunteers removed hundreds of graffiti tags. During the rest of the year, there is less graffiti because the community’s persistence discourages taggers, said Town Council members.
