Spray paint should become a controlled substance to stop the spread of graffiti and its new, high-altitude cousin "giraffiti,'' says city Coun. Helen Hughes.

At city council meeting Thursday, Hughes asked municipal bureaucrats to work investigating how spray paint could be regulated and controlled.

She said regulations might include the need to have a permit to buy spray paint, or a limit on the number of cans sold at a time, or requirements to store the spray paint behind a counter.

To make any regulations effective, they would have to be enacted across the entire Capital regional district, she said.

Hughes also noted there is also a new phenomena called giraffiti.

It's presumably a combination of the words graffiti and giraffe because Hughes said it involves spray painting a picture or graffiti signature, called a tag, as high as possible off the ground.
