According to KETK, that&#8217;s money they say they don&#8217;t need to spend at a time when the city is dealing with a tight budget.   The latest rash of vandalism happened at the Rose Garden, where 30 nozzles were stolen from the fountain at a cost of more than $5,000.   Parks and Recreation Director Stephanie Rollings says money they&#8217;re using to clean up the mess could have been used elsewhere. According to Rollings, &#8220;The vandals doing this I don&#8217;t think really know the massive effect they&#8217;re having on the city&#8217;s budget as well as the citizens of Tyler.&#8221;   Rollings says every citizen who uses those parks is affected.   So far, all the graffiti has been cleaned up, and stolen items have been replaced. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TYLER &#8212; Vandals are leaving their calling card across Tyler &#8212; and graffiti marring new bathrooms, parks, and trails is causing the Tyler Parks and Recreation Department to spend unnecessary cash.
