Layton, UT Soliciting & Door-to-Door: No-Knock Registry (2026)

170, any occupant may give notice that they refuse solicitors by displaying a "No Solicitation" or similar sign on or near the main entrance door, near the property line by the sidewalk leading to the residence, or otherwise placed to give reasonable notice; the posted sign constitutes notice to any solicitor that the occupant does not desire or invite solicitors, and it is the solicitor's responsibility to check each residence for that notice before approaching. The rule applies even to solicitors otherwise exempt from Layton's registration requirement.

180 turns that into an affirmative duty: a solicitor who finds a posted sign must desist and immediately leave the property, and holding a registration certificate does not excuse the duty to check. It is a separate chapter violation for a solicitor to knock, ring the doorbell, or otherwise try to attract the attention of an occupant behind a posted sign, and that same conduct can also be prosecuted as criminal trespass. The same section bars using a ruse or deception to secure an audience, requires a solicitor asked to leave to depart immediately and peacefully, prohibits unwanted physical contact or following a person into a residence without consent, bars continuing to solicit after a clear expression of disinterest, and bans obscene language or gestures. m. Mountain Time unless the solicitor has the resident's express prior permission to come outside that window.
