CITY OF ORONO MEMORANDUM <br /> <br />DATE: June 8, 2020 <br />TO: Mayor Walsh, City Council <br />FROM: Dustin Rief, City Administrator <br />RE: Solicitors License Temporary Suspension of Issuance <br /> <br />Background: The Governor has restricted businesses and their interactions with people due to the <br />COVID-19 Pandemic. Solicitors going door to door in the community would increase face to face <br />interactions and the risk for spread of the disease. To date, the City has not received a proposal that <br />explains how solicitors are addressing the necessary safety precautions regarding COVID 19. <br /> <br />Due to the nature of how business is being conducted, meeting residents at their residence, it adds <br />additional risk to residents that they cannot control. Staff would like to discuss a suspension of issuing <br />Solicitor Licenses for door to door sales until the lifting of the governor’s executive orders related to <br />COVID-19. <br /> <br />
