Tinley Park residents may post 'No Soliciting' or 'No Trespassing' signs that carry legal effect, prohibiting commercial solicitors from approaching. Violating a posted sign is a code violation and may constitute criminal trespass.
Under Tinley Park's soliciting ordinance, a clearly posted 'No Soliciting' or 'No Trespassing' sign at the entrance to a residence legally prohibits commercial solicitors and peddlers from approaching the door, ringing the bell, or attempting contact. The sign must be visible from the approach to the dwelling. Solicitors who ignore posted signs commit a Village code violation and may also be charged with criminal trespass under 720 ILCS 5/21-3. Tinley Park does not maintain a formal 'Do Not Knock' registry, relying instead on posted signage. The rule does not apply to noncommercial activity such as political canvassing or religious outreach, though those individuals must respect clear instructions to leave a property.
Ignoring posted sign: $100-$500 fine and possible criminal trespass charge. Permit revocation for repeat offenders.
