The City of Reynoldsburg finds that persons and organizations have been visiting and continue to visit private residential properties for purposes of soliciting or for the peddling of goods, wares, merchandise or services. Some residents find these activities to be intrusive upon their privacy. The City Council further finds that a variety of misrepresentations and other frauds are or could be employed in such activities. As such, the City Council wishes to enact this chapter for the purposes of protecting the privacy of residents and minimizing fraudulent practices by persons representing themselves as peddlers, solicitors or canvassers.
