(a) It is the intention of this chapter to protect, to the extent possible, the privacy of any resident of the Village of Hunting Valley who has advised the Village that the resident does not wish to be visited by any person who is not known to the resident and has not been previously invited to the resident’s property. The Village also seeks to protect the Constitutional Rights of speakers to communicate to those Village residents who wish to hear the speaker’s message, without interposing the Village government between the speaker and willing listener. It is also the intention of this chapter to prevent solicitation fraud by requiring the identification and registration of persons who seek to solicit business and/or charitable contributions from Village residents.
(b) To meet the stated purposes, the Village shall maintain two databases:
(1) Owners or occupants of property within the Village who do not wish to be visited by uninvited visitors, and who have expressly advised the Village of this request in writing; and
(2) Owners or occupants of property within the Village who are willing to be visited by uninvited visitors, which shall be anyone who has not affirmatively advised the Village that they do not want uninvited visitors.
