Lawrenceville residents may post 'No Solicitors' signs at entrances; solicitors must honor them. Violating a posted sign is a separate ordinance violation.
City Code (Peddlers/Solicitors chapter) requires commercial solicitors to respect posted 'No Solicitors' or 'No Trespassing' signs at individual residences and at subdivision/HOA entrances. Religious canvassing and political canvassing are protected First Amendment activity under Watchtower v. Stratton (2002) but still may not trespass past a posted sign. Police handle persistent violations as criminal trespass.
Ignoring posted sign: $100-$500 ordinance violation and/or criminal trespass (O.C.G.A. Β§16-7-21).
