Brighton

Unclear wording: ask the clerk
“5-98-60(1) All licensees must have written permission from the property owner for the parcel on which the vending will take place … (5)(a) Vending may occur on public or private property with written permission from the property owner”

The peddler and solicitor article was repealed in 2020; outdoor vending of goods or services needs a license and the property owner's written permission, with no mention of door-to-door calls.

Gypsum

Unclear wording: ask the clerk
“To go in or upon the private property of any residence … for the purpose of peddling without first obtaining a valid transient business license … and without having the permission of the owner or occupant of the private residence”

A transient business license is required to peddle at residences, and the clause asks for the owner or occupant's permission without saying how; a nonsolicitation list and signs bind peddlers.

Lafayette

Uninvited home soliciting barred
“It shall be unlawful for any person to enter or remain upon any residential premises, not having been invited by an occupant thereof … to solicit the immediate or future purchase or sale of goods, services or anything of value.”

The code makes uninvited soliciting at residential premises unlawful, covering goods or services; exemptions cover charitable, religious and political callers, certain local businesses and youth activities. We found no exception for permit or license holders in the same code.
