Summary

Overland Park runs no no-knock registry. It runs a sign system: the City Clerk hands out a free No Solicitors decal, and Chapter 5.64 makes it a municipal offense for a solicitor to knock at any door displaying it.

For purposes of this section, the No Solicitors decal issued by the City Clerk prominently displayed on the door shall constitute sufficient notice to all Solicitors. However, other similar signs, as defined above, are also sufficient.

Full Breakdown

Section 5.64.020(A) makes it unlawful for a solicitor to ring the bell, knock, or otherwise seek admittance at a residence posting "No Solicitors," "No Trespassers," or words of similar import. The City Clerk's decal is deemed sufficient notice, and other similar signs count too. Residents get one at City Hall, 8500 Santa Fe Drive, or by mailing a self-addressed stamped envelope. Subsection B extends the protection to an entire multi-family complex where every street entrance is posted. Separate rules bar solicitation before 10 a.m. or after 9 p.m., bar return visits within 14 days, and require a solicitor to leave when asked. Report violations to Overland Park Police non-emergency, 913-895-6300.

Violations & Fines

Public offense prosecuted in Overland Park Municipal Court under 5.64.030, penalized through the general penalty at 1.12.010.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Overland Park keep a no-knock list?
No. There is no registry a solicitor must check. Protection comes from posting a No Solicitors sign, which Section 5.64.020(A) makes legally binding on solicitors.
Does my sign stop political and religious callers?
The ordinance defines solicitation to include charitable requests and canvassing. The city advises residents that the sign is not applied against election candidates, political speech, or religious causes.
Can the same company come back next week?
No. Section 5.64.020(E) bars more than one solicitation call at the same residence for identical or substantially similar goods within any 14-day period without a prior invitation.
