The goal is to draw clearer distinctions between street art, graffiti and tagging. It also helps to stop the illegal spraying which costs the local government hundreds and thousands of dollars every year to clean up.
Jan Farrell is from Geelong Council.
"Young people tag and some of those young people have particularly great skills and it's about finding those young people and then helping them to do productive street art."
Now some street artists are being afforded commercial opportunities through their work.
Internationally renowned street artist Rone grew up near Geelong and started off painting in skate parks.
But he abandoned skateboarding and focused on his growing love affair with art.
Rone uses cherry pickers to paint his epic works, but such projects have their challenges.
"It's a little bit sad that yeah, they're going to go, they're going to fall apart or be torn down but there's also, it's kind of the beauty of it as well, that makes it exciting that it's not going to be there forever."
While it looks very different to the typical street tagging, Rone says it's actually very similar.
He feels many 'taggers' could do street art.
