Borough Ordinance 2516-2019 stipulates that residents may register their home on the “Do Not Knock” Registry by submitting a Do Not Knock Registry Request Form to the Municipal Clerk’s Office. This ordinance does not apply to the door-to-door activities of religious groups, charitable organizations, non-profit organizations, or political campaigners.
This list of names and addresses of residents who do not wish to receive door-to-door solicitations will be maintained by the Municipal Clerk’s Office.
You will receive a decal (one decal per residence) that must be placed in a front door or window to make it clear you do not wish to receive solicitors. The registry (addresses only) will be made available to those engaging in door-to-door solicitation to ensure that those who have been added to the “Do Not Knock” Registry do not receive unsolicited peddling. No names shall be included on the registry. The Fair Lawn Police Department will also be provided with a copy of the registry.
The address will remain on the registry until a Do Not Knock Removal Request Form or a written notification is received by the Municipal Clerk’s Office requesting to be removed from the registry.
This form is to be mailed to:
Borough of Fair Lawn
Office of the Municipal Clerk
8-01 Fair Lawn Avenue
Fair Lawn, NJ 07410
The form can also be dropped off, Monday through Friday, from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
