I don't know how you feel about them, but I'm not a big fan of door-to-door solicitation. I get that people have to make a living, and sometimes selling this way helps, but I am a private person who doesn't like to be interrupted unless I know it's coming.
And it looks like League City is kind of in agreement with me here, in that they are enacting stricter permit requirements to those selling door-to-door. The new rules are pretty simple, salesmen will now have to be permitted and carry identification. Homeowners will also be able to request this info if they show up.
But that's not all, as solicitors will be forced to go through a criminal background check and an online training course, that ends with an exam.
So this is a big step to curb that a bit, and I hope more places follow through with similar rulings. I don't like when people come to my home unannounced and I'm sure many others don't. And with the rise of ongoing scams, it's good that they're requiring so much in order to allow you to solicit door-to-door.
