It followed the council offering a $3000 reward for information over the recent spate of graffiti.
Inspector John Sheehan told the Goulburn Post that a 24-year-old Goulburn man, a 16-year-old male and a 16-year-old female had been charged with aggravated intentionally marking premises without consent.
Insp Sheehan said the offences were aggravated because the offenders would be forced to clean the graffiti off.
He said the man would appear in Goulburn Local Court on June 20 and the juveniles would appear in court on June 29.
Goulburn Mulwaree Council put out a call for information and issued the reward which assisted wiith the apprehension of the offenders.
Goulburn Mulwaree Mayor Bob Kirk thanked the community for the response.
“It is so reassuring to know we have a community full of good people who just want to see our facilities looked after and maintained,” Cr Kirk said.
“We really appreciate the amount of people who contacted us. This is now a matter for the police.
“Community pride is alive and well in Goulburn Mulwaree and I ask people to continue to report graffiti or unsocial behaviour to the police when they see it.
“The facilities we provide as a council are community owned and it is up to all of us to look after them.
Insp Sheehan encouraged community members to report such incidents directly to the police by calling 4824 0799.
