No-Knock Registry: Flower Mound vs Little Elm

Flower Mound maintains a no-solicitation registry under Chapter 62 of the Code of Ordinances that allows residents to opt out of receiving door-to-door solicitors. Residents may register their address with the Police Department by phone or through the town's online portal. Once registered, the address is placed on a list provided to all permitted solicitors, who must review it before beginning their canvassing routes and skip all listed addresses. In addition to the registry, residents may post a no-solicitation sign or sticker at their entrance, and any solicitor who approaches a home displaying such signage commits a separate violation of Chapter 62. The only exemptions from the no-solicitation rules are for religious organizations, political campaigns, and registered nonprofit charitable groups, which are protected under the First Amendment but must still leave immediately when a resident asks them to depart. The no-solicitation registry is heavily utilized in Flower Mound's HOA communities including Bridlewood, Wellington, and Lakeside.

Little Elm enforces no-soliciting signs on residential properties and penalizes solicitors who ignore them. The town may maintain a do-not-knock registry for opt-out residents.
