Summary

Titusville lets residents block door-to-door solicitors outright: Code of Ordinances § 11-374(9) makes it unlawful for any licensed peddler, canvasser, or solicitor to knock where a "No Trespassing," "No Solicitors," or "No Soliciting" sign is posted in plain view. The city separately fixes citywide solicitation hours under § 11-380, tied to standard versus daylight time.

(9)Solicitors, peddlers, and canvassers are prohibited from soliciting, peddling, and canvassing on premises in areas where a notice stating "No Trespassing," "No Solicitors", "No Soliciting", or words of a similar meaning, is posted in plain view. ... No peddling, canvassing or solicitation shall occur by any individual licensed under this article before 9:00 a.m. on any day and after 6:00 p.m. during the months of standard time and after 7:00 p.m. during the months of daylight savings time unless the peddler, canvasser or solicitor has the express permission of the property owner or resident prior to calling for solicitation.

Official source re-checked September 7, 2026: no newer edition of the code had been published (publisher’s edition: Code of Ordinances: Supplement 54 Update 1 | Land Development Regulations: Supplement 19 Update 1 | Technical Manuals: Supplement 10 Update 1).

Full Breakdown

Section 11-374(9) of the peddlers, solicitors and canvassers article makes posting a "No Trespassing," "No Solicitors," "No Soliciting," or similarly worded sign in plain view a complete bar on solicitation at that address; any licensed peddler, canvasser, or solicitor who knocks anyway is violating Article IX regardless of the hour. during the months of daylight saving time, unless the specific property owner or resident has given the solicitor express permission to call outside those hours. The two rules stack: a posted sign removes a property from solicitation entirely, while the hours provision governs every other address in the city that has not posted one.

A related provision, former Section 11-379, once regulated solicitation in the public right-of-way, but Ordinance No. 30-2023 (adopted August 8, 2023) repealed it outright, so that specific right-of-way rule no longer applies; only the posted-notice rule in Section 11-374(9) and the citywide hours in Section 11-380 remain in force for residential solicitation. Section 11-381 puts enforcement in the hands of code inspectors and police officers, who may require any peddler, canvasser, or solicitor not personally known to them to produce a valid business tax receipt on the spot, and Section 11-382 sets the penalty for any Article IX violation, including ignoring a posted sign or calling after hours.

Violations & Fines

Ignoring a posted "No Soliciting" notice, or calling outside the 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. standard time, 7:00 p.m. daylight time window without the resident's express permission, is a violation of Article IX punished under Section 11-382 as provided by Section 1-15: up to a $500.00 fine, up to sixty days in jail, or both, with continuing violations charged separately each day.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I stop door-to-door solicitors in Titusville just by posting a sign?

Does Titusville keep a formal do-not-solicit registry?

Former Section 11-379 once addressed solicitation in the public right-of-way, but Ordinance No. 30-2023, adopted August 8, 2023, repealed it entirely, so that specific rule is no longer in the code; the posted-sign and hours rules still apply.
What happens if a solicitor ignores a posted sign or calls too late?
It is a violation of Article IX, enforceable by police or code officers who can demand the solicitor's business tax receipt, and it is punished under Section 11-382 by up to a $500.00 fine, sixty days in jail, or both.
