Glasgow Permit Required for Peddlers and Solicitors, Available for Canvassers ordinance (§ 610.030)

Chapter 610: Peddlers and Solicitors

In short: Peddlers and solicitors must get a city permit before working in Glasgow. Canvassers don't need one, but any canvasser who wants a permit to reassure residents of their good faith will be issued one on request.

Our plain-English summary, not the official text or legal advice. The ordinance below is what counts.

No person shall act as a peddler or as a solicitor within the City without first obtaining a permit in accordance with this Chapter. A canvasser is not required to have a permit but any canvasser wanting a permit for the purpose of reassuring City residents of the canvasser's good faith shall be issued one upon request.
