Full Breakdown
Nampa City Code chapter 5-5 licenses peddlers, solicitors, canvassers, and itinerant merchants operating door-to-door. Section 5-5-11's unlawful-conduct list bars a licensee from entering any premises posted 'No peddlers allowed,' 'No solicitation allowed,' or similar wording (5-5-11.E), and separately bars continuing to solicit once told no (5-5-11.C). There is no citywide do-not-knock registry; enforcement is property-by-property, tied to a physically posted sign. A violation is grounds for license revocation under section 5-5-12 and, like any Code violation without a specified penalty, a misdemeanor under the general-penalty section 1-1-7.
Violations & Fines
Entering a posted 'No solicitation allowed' property is unlawful conduct under 5-5-11.E, grounds for license revocation under 5-5-12 and a misdemeanor under the Code's general penalty, section 1-1-7.
