How can I prevent door-to-door solicitors/peddlers from approaching my home?
The Township cannot refuse to issue a permit to door-to-door solicitors and/or peddlers who meet our requirements. However, the soliciting/peddling ordinance states that "it shall be unlawful for an individual, group, association, partnership or corporation to engage in solicitation or peddling at any time on premises where the property owner, or person in control of the property has clearly posted a notice that solicitors and peddlers are prohibited". A property posted with a "No Soliciting" sign should address your problem. No Solicitors stickers are available in the Clerk's Department. If the property is posted and ignored by solicitors, a call to the Township Police Department at (734) 354-3232 is suggested.
