City of Palouse Updating No Contact List


We are updating our Solicitor’s No Contact List.  If you want to be kept on it and/or added to the list, please reply to this email or call City Hall at 878-1811. 

Door-to-door solicitors are not permitted in Palouse unless they first complete a permit application here at City Hall.  Once they complete the form, our police department does background checks, etc.  If approved, they will be issued a one-year permit, as well as our no-contact list, (with no names, just addresses of homes NOT to contact). 

Just a little more information….  The city usually receives only one or two solicitor applicants a year.  From now on, if we’ve granted a permit to a solicitor, I will send out an email notifying the public of that.

If someone comes to your door, they should have a copy of their permit with a “City of Palouse” date stamp on it.  If you’re on the “no contact” list, a legitimate solicitor should not come to your door (because they will have received our no-contact list).

You can report non-permitted solicitors by calling City Hall at 878-1811.
