Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Norwalk Municipal Code to the contrary, whenever the Director of Public Works determines that graffiti or other inscribed material is obnoxious and is so located on public or private property as to be capable of being viewed by a person utilizing any public right-of-way in this City, whether road, parkway, alley, or otherwise, and the owner of the property consents to the removal by the City of the graffiti or other inscribed material and executes such document as the City may provide relative to the removal of the graffiti or other inscribed material, then the Director of Public Works is authorized to provide for removal of the graffiti or other inscribed material. If the Director of Public Works provides for the removal of the graffiti or other inscribed material, he or she shall not authorize nor undertake to provide for the painting or repair of any more extensive area than that where the graffiti or other inscribed material is located.
