The Snoopy bridge in Tarzana is getting some much-needed care and attention after a neighbor's cry for help to clean up the graffiti damaged art panels on the bridge has been answered.Charles Donovan walks his neighborhood regularly and noticed the graffitied panels, and took it to heart and went into action to find a way to clean them up.'I love Snoopy, I love the whole Peanuts characters. It's kind of a valley iconic thing,' Donavan said.
He also reached out to Councilmember Bob Blumenfield, and the councilman's office was able to gain the legal rights from Schulz and fund the restoration of the artwork with a local studio.'Nothing's ever simple. When we first looked into it, it wasn't even registered as a mural. So then there were legal questions of whether we could touch it or couldn't touch it,' Blumenfield said.
