Background. The applicants listed above were issued a Solicitor's license for the period of May <br />20, 2019 to May 30, 2019. Brantley Brooks of Aptive Environmental recently contacted the City <br />Clerk to request an extension of the license for an additional 10 days. He mentioned the group <br />missed their timeframe in Orono and were not able to Solicit during that time. <br />All licenses issued under Chapter 30 of Orono City Code are valid for a maximum of ten days per <br />calendar year. The City Council at its sole discretion may grant an extension up to 50 additional <br />days per calendar year upon application for extension. <br />The City received one complaint from a resident on July 8, 2019 regarding a solicitor from <br />Aptive Environmental. The alleged incident took place during the week of July 5th, which was <br />outside of the permitted timeframe on the original issued license. Staff responded to the resident, <br />addressed the complaint and reached out to the supervisor listed on the original applications. The <br />city has not received a response from the Supervisor to date. Staff was able to speak with Mr. <br />Brooks regarding the situation and revisited the requirements of a Solicitor's License in the City <br />of Orono. Brooks acknowledged that unknowingly Aptive Environmental was soliciting outside <br />of the permitted time -frame and that they would abide by the requirements and permitted days <br />going forward. Brooks also affirmed that the Solicitors will follow through with all requirements <br />of the license as described in Section 30-4 of Orono City Code. <br />Prepared By: AMC <br />Reviewed By: AMC <br />Approved By: J1)6V, <br />
