Solicitor/Transient/Vendor Permits
Spring Hill Municipal Code Title 9, Chapter 2 requires that any peddler, canvasser, solicitor or transient merchant wishing to do business within the City of Spring Hill obtain a Solicitor/Transient/Vendor Permit.
One Solicitor/Transient/Vendor Permit Application must be submitted for each person who will be vending or soliciting in the City, along with an investigation fee of $10.00 per application. Each applicant must attach a copy of his/her driver's license/State I.D. to the application. The Spring Hill Police Department will conduct a background check on each applicant, and it takes at least 72 hours to get these results from the Police Department. In addition to this application and investigation fee, every permittee shall file with the City Recorder a $1,000.00 surety bond or certificate of insurance. Once the necessary back ground checks have been completed and approved by the Spring Hill Police Department, each applicant will be issued a solicitation/transient/vendor permit.
