Katy Ordinance No. 2243 lets residents block solicitors by posting a weatherproof no-solicitation sign at least one inch tall in bold print near the main entrance, making any further solicitation a code violation.
Under Katy's Ordinance No. 2243, a homeowner or business operator who does not want to be approached by peddlers, charitable solicitors, or itinerant merchants may post a weatherproof sign at least one inch in height in bold print at or near the main entrance. Once that sign is visible, any registered solicitor who continues to approach or knock at the property is in violation of the ordinance, even if they hold a current Katy Police Department permit. Residents should report violations to KPD at 281-391-4848.
Soliciting at a property displaying a compliant no-solicitation sign can result in citation, permit revocation, and removal from the Katy solicitor registry, with repeat offenses prosecuted as criminal trespass.
