Old factory that burned out years back but the concrete parts of the structure remained. Eyesore for the small town and a potential safety hazard they tore out all of the burnt stuff and retained the concrete forms and lower walls. Property was purchased by a neighboring tavern and made available for use for street art. Artists must meet the tavern owners and are given an area to paint. Nothing obscene, racist, or not family friendly. The site is used for photo shoots and a Arts & Brewsfest every year in June.

I am not the RM, but if the artist must meet with the Property Owner and get their permission, then that mural should be acceptable.

What I am finding is that some building owners and town councils are using mural to protect from graffiti attacks, but the "protective" mural is painted in a graffiti/street art style. This makes it difficult to determine if it is an approved mural or just more graffiti.

But as the RM has said, "if in doubt, send it in" and he will decide.
