Full Breakdown
Little Elm Code of Ordinances Chapter 58 requires all permitted solicitors to respect no-soliciting signs posted at residential properties. 05. The town may maintain a do-not-knock registry where residents can register their address to be placed on a list distributed to all permitted solicitors. Solicitors who contact an address on the registry are subject to permit revocation and fines. In master-planned communities like Paloma Creek and Union Park, HOA-controlled access gates and community management companies provide an additional layer of solicitation control. Some HOAs prohibit door-to-door solicitation entirely within the community and enforce this through their private security or management companies.
Residents can also register with the Texas No-Call List maintained by the Public Utility Commission of Texas for telephone solicitation, though this is separate from door-to-door rules.
Violations & Fines
Ignoring a no-soliciting sign can result in fines up to $500 and potential trespassing charges. Contacting addresses on a do-not-knock registry may result in permit revocation.
