The controversial by-law was passed while concerned graffiti artists said it limited their freedom of expression as it made it illegal for them to paint murals on property without a permit from the city.

Smith said the Arts and Culture Department has been working actively with the sub council on identifying dedicated mural spaces.
He added that the City is working on fast tracking the application process to make sure that mural applications are approved quicker.
