Upper Pottsgrove officials recently agreed to have the township solicitor and police chief draft changes to the township’s solicitation ordinance. Township Commissioner Don Read raised the issue after receiving complaints from constituents. Township solicitor Eric Fray said the township must allow solicitation, “but there are ways you can put controls on it.” Fray suggested better enforcement of the township’s “no call list,” as well as allowing residents to put “no solicitation” signs on their properties. Frey said the changes he and the police chief are proposing will be presented to the commissioners and the public at an October meeting.
