City Council has approved amendments to the Solicitors, Canvassers, Peddlers and Vendors Ordinance including the creation of a "Do Not Solicit" List much like the State and Federal governments' "Do Not Call" lists.
Solicitor's Permit Guidelines
- Under the Ordinance, any solicitor, canvasser, peddler or vendor intending to make face-to-face contact at a resident's home must register and obtain a Solicitor's Permit.
- Once a permit is approved, the soliciting agency will be given a copy of the "Do Not Solicit" List and must not attempt to make contact at any listed residence.
- Vendors and solicitors who are only distributing information but are not attempting to make face-to-face contact do not have to apply for a vendor's license, or comply with the "Do Not Solicit" List.
If you would like to add your address to the "Do Not Solicit" List, please fill out the
online form.
Note: Solicitation is only permitted between 9 a.m. and 6 p.m. daily!
