Got two notes today/tonight about what sound like the same solicitors, who were the subject of a recent report, too – read on:

Genesee Hill.
Just had two women who would not take no come to my door at 10:00 pm with educational materials for kids. They acted surprised that I hadn’t heard about this from the other parents. I am assuming that there is not a neighborhood project about this going on?
How late can they come to my door before I can call the police?
James had written late this morning:
There are people going door to door in Genesee neighborhood. It’s the folks selling “early learning” material, asking about children in the neighborhood.
Came to my door at about 11:15, ignoring a “no solicitors” sign.
In both cases, city rules appear to have been violated – the ordinance says 9 pm is the cutoff for cold calls, and that “no solicitors” signs cannot be ignored.
