Editor's Note: This ordinance was adopted as Ch. 289 but was renumbered to maintain the organizational structure of the Code.
All definitions as set out in Articles I and II of this chapter shall apply to this article.
Any person or entity who owns or rents property within the Township may register such property to be included on the "Do Not Solicit" List by registering through the Township Clerk's office.
Maintenance of the "Do Not Solicit" List shall be as follows:
A. 
The "Do Not Solicit" List shall be maintained by the Township Clerk. The list shall be available through the official Township website.
B. 
The "Do Not Solicit" List shall consist solely of property addresses and shall include no further identifying information concerning the ownership of each property.
C. 
The Tax Assessor shall notify the Township Clerk of any change in ownership of property within the Township. The Township Clerk shall remove from the "Do Not Solicit" List any property which has changed ownership.
D. 
Other than by sale of property, a property, once listed, may only be removed from the list by submitting a written, sworn and notarized request, sent to the Township Clerk.
The Township Clerk's office shall:
A. 
Post a copy of the "Do Not Solicit" List on the official Township website.
B. 
Provide a copy of the "Do Not Solicit" List to every applicant to whom a license is issued pursuant to Chapter 288.
C. 
Provide a copy of the "Do Not Solicit" List to any person notifying the Township Clerk's office pursuant to § 288-17 of his/her intention to engage in noncommercial soliciting or canvassing. The failure of the Township Clerk to provide the "Do Not Solicit" List to such person or the failure of such person to have received a copy of the "Do Not Solicit" List from the Township Clerk shall not provide a defense to the requirement of having in his/her possession a copy of the updated "Do Not Solicit" List as required by § 288-27N.
It is prohibited for any person to conduct any commercial or noncommercial solicitation or canvassing at any property listed on the "Do Not Solicit" List.
The prohibition in this article shall not apply to the visiting of a property where the owner or occupant of such property has directly or implicitly indicated to the solicitor or canvasser, through prior interaction, that his/her visit would be welcomed. The burden of persuasion shall be on the person claiming this exemption.
