In Person

Currently, there is no resolution or law specifically related to solicitors. The sheriff's office recommends that if you have a problem with solicitors in your neighborhood, try some of these measures:

• Do not answer the door
• Do not purchase anything
• If the solicitor will not leave or becomes agitated, call the sheriff's office for assistance
• Talk to your homeowner association about posting "no soliciting" signs around the community
