3/13/2012 Information Regarding Solicitors in the City of St. Anthony
Spring is on the way and so are the door to door sales people. The City Council recently passed an ordinance requiring business licenses and everyone doing business in the City of St. Anthony is required to have one, including door to door sales people. (You can view the full ordinance by clicking here)
Certain people are exempt from the license requirement. They are: Education sponsored fund raisers and activities, charitable, political, and religious activities. Everyone else is required to have a business license.
Transient Solicitors (door to door sales people) are required to obtain a business license for each sales person. The solicitor is required to display, in plain sight, a name tag which clearly displays the name of the solicitor and the company by whom the solicitor is employed. Each solicitor is required to carry a copy of the business license and present it for inspection by any member of the public upon request. (City ordinance 2011-09 Chapter 5.12.5 section f)
When dealing with solicitors:
1. You can deny entry to your home or property.
2. You can post “NO SOLICITING” or similar signs at the entrance to your home or property. (City Ord. 2011-09, Chapter 5.12.15)
3. You have the right to say NO or NOT INTERESTED and ask a solicitor to leave.
4. You can ask to see the solicitor’s business license.
5. You can direct the solicitor to City Hall to obtain a license if one is not presented.
6. You can call the police if the solicitor has no license or becomes abusive or harassing. (Call 9-1-1 for emergencies, all other solicitor related issues please call 624-4001)
Each solicitor that obtains a business license has completed the required forms and has been investigated by the city police department. This does not mean they are all trustworthy . You should still use good judgment to protect yourself, your family, and your property. If you ever feel threatened or feel that you have been mistreated or scammed by a solicitor you should notify the police immediately.
The State of Idaho gives you additional rights regarding sales inside your home. You can read about them in the publication “Consumer Protection Manual” found at the Idaho Attorney General’s website. http://www.ag.idaho.gov/publications/consumer/ConsumerProtectionManual.pdf
