MILTON, Ga. â The Milton City Council voted April 26 to set limitations on those who can solicit door-to-door in the city.
The move requires that any âbona fideâ non-profit or charitable organization must be registered with the Secretary of Stateâs Office to solicit door-to-door. The regulations also make an exception for tax-exempt religious organizations and educational entities.
Police Chief Rich Austin told the council the city has a vetting process in place for solicitors in the city, but it does not cover non-profit organizations. He said outside groups have taken advantage and have been solicitating as charitable groups in Milton despite not operating in the area.
