A posted no-soliciting sign carries weight in Licking County. In cities that regulate peddlers, a permitted solicitor who ignores a clear no-soliciting notice can be cited under the local ordinance.
Licking County's cities back a resident's own no-soliciting sign through their peddler and solicitor ordinances. In Newark, Heath, and Pataskala, a licensed solicitor who approaches a home displaying a clear no-soliciting notice, or who continues after being asked to leave, commits a violation enforceable by police or code compliance. Some communities also keep a do-not-knock list that registered solicitors must honor. The protection reaches commercial sellers; religious, political, and charitable canvassers keep their constitutional right to knock regardless of a sign, though many honor it. A posted sign applies to that individual property.
A commercial solicitor who ignores a posted no-soliciting sign or a do-not-knock listing faces a citation under the city ordinance and possible revocation of the solicitor permit.
