Garage Sale Application

Solicitors and Door-to-Door Canvassing

Solicitors must obtain a proper permit. Each person shall pay a $500.00 fee for this permit and each solicitor will have to fill out an application and go through a background check.

Our local ordinance contains the following: “No person shall engage in solicitation upon any premises or in any dwelling house, apartment or other residence located within the Village when such premises are posted with a sign stating, “No Peddlers Allowed” or “No Solicitations Allowed”, or other words to such effect. Residents may obtain such signs from the Village Hall at no cost. This sign shall be posted on or near the main entrance of the residence.

All solicitors are required to register with the Village Clerk and Police Department prior to solicitation and to be issued a solicitor's badge attached to a lanyard which should be worn around the neck with the badge hanging in front and outside of clothing.

Free notary public services are available for residents.
