Is there anything that can be done about unwanted solicitors in our community, other than just posting signs at the entrance ways that are obviously being ignored?

Donna,

Soliciting is an ordinance violation and can very easily be dealt with by calling the police and having them tell the solicitor to to leave. Repeat offenses are handled by issuing citations and multiple repeat violations can ultimately be handled by arrest in certain instances. Be sure to tell the dispatcher that you live in a community where solicitors are not welcome and signs are posted, and that you would like the police to come out and ask them to leave the community. Hope this helps

Thanks for this information. I wasn't aware of this, and it's great information to have.
