Summary

Rockwall lets residents post a weatherproof "no solicitation" card to bar handbills and door-to-door pitches, and caps all solicitor hours at 8 a.m.-6 p.m.

It shall be unlawful for any person to distribute or cause to be distributed... any handbill upon any private property if requested by anyone thereon not to do so, or if there is placed on such premises in a conspicuous place upon or near the main entrance to the premises, a weatherproof card, bearing the words "no solicitation," "no advertisements," "no handbills," "no trespassing," or any similar notice... The letters on such cards shall be not less than two-thirds of an inch in height.

Full Breakdown

A posted card reading "no solicitation," "no advertisements," "no handbills," or similar (letters at least 2/3 inch tall) near the main entrance makes it unlawful for peddlers, solicitors, or handbill distributors to approach that address. Anyone entering must use the front or main entrance and walkway, and removing a homeowner's no-solicitation sign is itself an offense. Separately, every licensed peddler, solicitor, or itinerant vendor is barred from operating outside 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., citywide, with no exception for card-free homes.

Violations & Fines

Class C misdemeanor, fine up to $500 per violation (Sec. 12-56); license suspension or revocation for repeat offenders under Sec. 12-65/12-66.
