Solicitor’s permit in Temecula

[Ricky Knack]

Just wondering if this is something peculiar to Temecula, CA or if this is something more widespread. It seems, in filing for a business license that I also may need a solicitor’s permit. Wouldn’t be an issue so much as it Requires a $29 fee every other month plus having to have a background check and having to go down to the city offices to renew (again, every two months). It sounds like I only need to do this if Im going around and knocking on doors (although there’s a spot for flyers, mail, pamphlets and door hangers and phone). Any input is appreciated

@Reba Marabotto I spent the better part of the day between the recorder and city buildings today (yes, I live in Temecula) and its a part of filling out the business license for the city. There’s a box for door-door which triggers you over to the sheriff who then has you fill out the solicitor background check paperwork... I’m trying to look at it as marketing dollars... about 180 per year and 6 stops by the sheriffs office for the right to be able to knock at a door =\
