Door-to-door solicitors in Ocoee must obtain a Solicitor Permit from the Ocoee Police Department before engaging in commercial solicitation. Permits require background check and photo ID, which must be displayed while soliciting.
City Code Chapter 115 (Peddlers and Solicitors) requires each individual solicitor to register and submit to a criminal background check. Non-commercial speech (political canvassing, religious visits, charitable fundraising) is exempt as protected First Amendment activity. Permitted solicitation hours: 9:00 AM to 7:00 PM, or 9:00 AM to sunset, whichever is earlier. Permit fee typically 50 dollars per solicitor plus 25 dollar background check fee.
Soliciting without permit: misdemeanor, 100-500 dollar fine. Violating hours or no-solicitation signs: 50-250 dollar civil citation.
