The Douglass Township Board of Supervisors will consider enacting an ordinance establishing a Do Not Solicit Registry when it meets on Monday, March 16, at the township building, 1320 E. Philadelphia Ave. in Gilbertsville, with the meeting starting after 7 p.m. The ordinance would amend Chapter 187 of the township code, which covers peddling and soliciting, to create a formal registry and associated procedures allowing residents to opt out of door-to-door solicitation. According to the public notice, the full text of the proposed ordinance is available for review at the Montgomery County Law Library, on the township's website, and at the township building during regular business hours.
