ACTIVE DOOR-TO-DOOR SALES PERMITS/PEDDLER LICENSES

Each of the peddlers will receive a laminated permit containing their name and photograph. If they cannot produce identification, they are not licensed, permitted peddlers.

No peddlers, solicitors or transient merchants shall solicit at a residence that has a sign posted conspicuously that prohibits soliciting.

Exemptions apply to charitable, religious or non-profit organizations or corporations that have received exempt status under 26 U. S. C. Section 501(c)(3); and, candidates for political office, campaign workers, members and representatives or political committees or political organizations campaigning on behalf of ballot issues, distributors of sample ballots and other political literature and persons soliciting signatures of registered voters on petitions to be submitted to any governmental agency shall be exempt.

With limitations, any permit may be revoked by the City Manager or the Newcastle Police Chief.
