St. Petersburg (FL) used to be like that, but business owners started working with artists, and then more and more businesses did the same. https://stpetemural

  You mean voluntary collaboration between property owners and artists, creating mutually beneficial arrangements (artists get paid to do what they love, the quality of the work improves) instead of regulation and criminalisation was the better answer? Who would have thought. If anything the state could incentivize certain property owners to allow their alleyways or other areas to allow graffiti. Since the artists aren't going to stop... so you might as well create positive environments for them. ...Just like drugs.
