Full Breakdown
Kissimmee's peddler and solicitor ordinance (ch. 10, art. IX) requires a business tax receipt before going door to door, then layers on conduct rules: solicitors can't enter a residence's premises if a "no solicitors" sign is posted, must leave immediately when the owner or occupant asks, can't approach back or side doors, can't work the public right-of-way, and can't make uninvited sales calls before 9:00 a.m., after 9:00 p.m., or at any time on Sundays. Violating any of these is punishable under the city's general penalty, up to $500 per day, with each day a separate offense.
Violations & Fines
Ignoring a posted no-solicitors sign, refusing to leave when asked, approaching back doors, or calling outside 9 a.m.–9 p.m. (never Sundays): punishable by up to $500 per day under the general penalty.
