Beaverton, Oregon: door-to-door solicitor permit

Partly read: the permit answer is sourced, but the fee or the hours could not be read from the city’s own pages. The clerk questions below cover the gap.

• The answer: No separate solicitation permit — the city's business license FAQ says the business license is all that is required, and that business licenses are required for door-to-door solicitors per Beaverton Code section 7.04.055. The rest of Chapter 7.04 (Door-to-Door Solicitation) could not be read: the code host blocked our reader.
• Where it comes from: City of Beaverton Finance — Business Licenses, 12725 SW Millikan Way, applied for online or by mailed PDF application (Beaverton Code 7.01, per the city's page).
• Fee: Business license, fees for July 1, 2023 as posted: 0 to 4 employees, $100 per year; each additional employee, $12 per year. Licenses run the calendar year; a new business starting after June 30th pays half. There is no per-rep permit fee.
• Hours you may knock: Not read — Chapter 7.04 of the Beaverton Code could not be opened.
• Code: Beaverton Code, Chapter 7.01 — business license, and Chapter 7.04 — Door-to-Door Solicitation (section 7.04.055 cited by the city). Not read back; the code host blocked our reader.

Ask the clerk, and write the answer down:

• What Beaverton Code 7.04 requires reps to carry or show at the door, and whether each rep needs a copy of the company license
• The hours reps may knock under 7.04, and any no-soliciting sign rule
• Whether 1099 reps count as employees on the company license or need their own license
