When the Void Deck Became a Target for Vandalism
Picture this: you’re strolling past the empty void deck of Block 351 Clementi Avenue 2, and instead of the usual clean, calm space, you see a splash of ink that spells out her unit number. Not just any ink—each letter painted in a style that screams, “Pet up, sorry!”
The Unwanted Message
The official notices from the Jurong‑Clementi Town Council had already warned residents, “Our lobby is NOT your dog’s loo.” They even proudly displayed images of dog poop and urine to drive the point home. Turns out, some mischief-makers decided to up the drama by scrawling unit numbers—including this resident’s—on those same notices, branding them with the words “dog pee.”
Pet‑Friendly? Or Pet‑Hostile?
- On May 25, the resident first spotted the flyers.
- She worked hard to corral her dog so it only pees and poops on the grass.
- Three days later, her unit number was literally painted on the notice.
This turned from a simple pet‑protest into a personal, bizarre stalk‑affliction. “We feel stalked,” she sighs, “especially since we always lock our main doors.” Some neighbours were equally stunned, their unit numbers added to the chaos.
Why It Matters
It’s more than just graffiti; it’s a breach of privacy. And if you’re very pet‑friendly, you might object to your furry friend—just in case—using the void deck as a makeshift restroom.
For now, the residents are calling for a calm response: more crew to restock the posters, better security, and maybe a fun pet‑training session to keep the void decks clean and the walls unscrawled.
Jurong‑Clementi Town Council Lets the Police Take the Lead on a Doggy Drama
In a tale that’s as twistsy as a soap‑opera plot, the Jurong‑Clementi Town Council has turned over the reins to the police for a muddled case involving a fringe‑knowingly mysterious dog.
Resident’s Blank Slate
The voice behind the incident—an online chat with Stomp—says she’s been a case of “no‑info.” She reportedly hasn’t seen any mail, e‑mail, phone call or in‑person visit regarding her furry friend.
Now that she’s reported the issue to both the Council and the police, the hunt for the culprit continues.
Repainting & Hijacking Heads‑Up
The Council’s spokesperson revealed that the streets got a fresh coat of paint after the damage. A quick‑acting resident also yanked the graffiti posters—complete with scribbled unit numbers—before the prankster’s art could hang around.
They’ve reached out to the resident to clear the air: “These marks weren’t our officers’ handi‑work. We’re serious about the damage—both the property hit up and the accidental confession of unit numbers on the walls.”
Calling on the Community to Play Detective
- “If you ha-tat a suspicious figure, please throw your hat into the mix. We need everyone’s help to bring the crook to justice.”
In a world where any misstep could be interpreted as wildly “vandalism,” the council is leaning on community solidarity more than ever. Remember, only the police will get the final verdict, so feel free to drop in or give a call if you spot a suspicious dog‑walker—or any odd character.
