Are solicitors allowed in Columbine Valley?

What is the application process for solicitors?

Permits are available for one month, or up to one year. All permits expire on December 31 of the year in which they are issued. Permits cannot be automatically renewed; a new application must be submitted each year.

What happens if a solicitor forgets their ID or permit?

If a solicitor does not have these documents, they cannot solicit in Columbine Valley. Failure to display these documents upon request could lead to a citation and fine up to $500 per occurrence.

How can I tell if a commercial solicitor is properly permitted?

Each permitted solicitor must display a Town-issued photo ID badge.

 “No Soliciting” signs

If a residence has a sign posted near their entrance stating “No Solicitation or Handbills”, “No Trespassing” or similar language, no one can solicit or leave handbills anywhere on the property. The property is defined as the land and structures owned by the residence, i.e.: the house, lawn, driveway, automobiles, anything located at or attached to the property, including the post office box.

What hours can door-to-door solicitations take place?

Solicitation hours are 9:00 AM to sunset.

What is the “No Visit List”?

The “No Visit List” prevents solicitors from coming to your home. By signing up, your address will be maintained by the Town as a list of persons who restrict visits to their residential property by peddlers, solicitors, and canvassers. This “No Visit List” shall be a public document and available for public inspection and copying. A copy of the “No Visit List” shall be provided to each applicant for a solicitors permit. The permitee shall be prohibited from entering upon any private property where the current occupant has posted the property on the Town “No Visit List”.
