The Village requires the following persons to carry a valid permit issued by the Village Communications Center while they canvass the Village. In addition to the permit, they must also carry a list of addresses where solicitors and vendors are prohibited by the residents; solicitors and vendors must not approach any address on that list. 

          * Solicitors or Vendors (including non-profits and charitable organizations)

          * Members of religious and political organizations if they:

              a) solicit donations or contributions, or

              b) sell goods or services.

Residents who do not want vendors and/or solicitors to visit their home may complete a "No Solicitors" form.
