Inglewood requires a Business License for certain business categories that involve solicitation, subject to Permits and Licensing Committee approval. The IMC Chapter 8 governs businesses, trades, and professions including solicitor regulations.
Inglewood regulates door-to-door solicitation through a municipal permit system. Commercial solicitors must apply for a permit, submit to a background check, and carry a visible identification badge while canvassing. Permits are typically valid for 30 to 90 days. Soliciting hours are restricted, commonly 9 AM to 9 PM (or sunset). Religious and political canvassing are generally exempt under First Amendment protections. Charitable solicitors may need separate registration.
Soliciting without permit: $100 to $500 citation. Violating hours: $100 to $250. Failure to display badge: $50 to $200.
