Full Breakdown
Two separate tools let a resident of the Town of Collierville shut out door-to-door callers. The first is a posted sign or sticker. Section 110.33(A) bars any solicitor, whether commercial or noncommercial, from entering or remaining on private premises where a No Solicitation or No Trespassing sign is clearly posted at or near the entrance, or where a Town no-solicitation sticker is affixed to the entryway or door. In a multi-family dwelling the sign goes at the entrance to the individual dwelling. Division (B) extends the rule to all solicitation, including religious, charitable and political activity and newspaper or magazine subscription sales. Section 110.31 defines the Town sticker as a blue circular sticker, supplied by the Town of Collierville, bearing the words No Solicitation.
The second tool is the no-solicitation list in § 110.34. The Town can establish a list, and an owner or lawful occupant registers an address with the Town. Registration takes effect as soon as it is noted on the list. If the Town establishes the list, it must publish it on the Town's website and keep it at the office of the Town Clerk, free of charge and without requiring identification from anyone who asks for a copy. Each address stays on the list until the occupant removes it, and door-to-door solicitation at a listed address is prohibited. Each permit holder must review the list immediately upon issuance of a permit and at later intervals. Section 110.34(E) says the Town and its officers are not liable for errors or omissions in compiling the list.
Hours and conduct limits sit in the same chapter. Section 110.47(B) bars commercial door-to-door solicitation except between 9:00 a.m. and one-half hour before sunset. Section 110.46 forbids any solicitor from removing a posted sign or Town sticker and from staying after the owner or occupant says to leave. Section 110.32 exempts bona fide merchants delivering goods in the regular course of business and sellers responding to a prior invitation.
Violations & Fines
Entering or remaining on premises posted with a No Solicitation or No Trespassing sign or a Town sticker violates § 110.33, as does staying after being told to leave under § 110.46(B). Soliciting outside the permitted hours violates § 110.47(B). Under § 110.99 a violator can be fined not more than $50 or the maximum amount permitted by state law, whichever is greater, for each offense, with each day a separate offense. Any police officer or code enforcement official can enforce the chapter under § 110.98.
