League City Chapter 78 requires permits for peddlers, solicitors, and canvassers conducting commercial activities door-to-door. Applications are reviewed by the chief of police. Non-commercial solicitation including political and religious canvassing is generally exempt.
Chapter 78 regulates commercial peddling, soliciting, and canvassing within League City. Applicants must submit a completed city application with required documentation to the chief of police for approval. The ordinance distinguishes between peddlers (selling goods), solicitors (selling services or taking orders), and canvassers (distributing commercial handbills without personal contact). Non-commercial solicitation protected by the First Amendment, including political and religious canvassing, is generally exempt from the permit requirement. Permitted solicitors must carry their permit while operating and display it upon request. The ordinance was updated by Ordinance 2021-13 in June 2021.
Commercial soliciting without permit: misdemeanor, fine up to $500 per offense. Permit revocation for violations of permit conditions.
