No no-knock ordinance in Pima County. Posted no-soliciting signs serve as trespass notice under ARS 13-1502. Political canvassing is First Amendment protected.

Full Breakdown

There is no Pima County code section creating a no-knock registry or requiring solicitors to honor no-soliciting signs through a permit revocation mechanism. However, Arizona trespassing law (ARS 13-1502 and 13-1503) provides homeowner protection: once a person is asked to leave or a no-trespassing notice is posted, remaining on the property constitutes criminal trespass. Posted no-soliciting signs serve as constructive notice. Political canvassers and religious missionaries are generally protected by the First Amendment and cannot be banned by local ordinance, though they must still leave if asked. Pima County Sheriff handles trespass complaints in unincorporated communities. Some HOA-governed subdivisions in unincorporated Pima County may have their own solicitation restrictions through CC&Rs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are no-soliciting signs legally enforceable in unincorporated Pima County?

While there is no county ordinance specifically about no-soliciting signs, a posted sign serves as notice under Arizona trespass law. A solicitor who ignores your sign and refuses to leave when asked may be cited for criminal trespass under ARS 13-1502.

Can I stop political canvassers from knocking on my door?

Political canvassing is protected speech under the First Amendment and cannot be prohibited by ordinance. However, you can ask any visitor to leave your property, and they must comply or risk a trespass charge.
