What is the No Knock Registry?
On October 14, 2025, the Town Board passed a Local Law creating the No Knock Registry to prohibit solicitors from approaching residential homes that have expressly requested to be listed on the Town’s No Knock Registry. By signing up, your address will be placed on a list to be kept by the Town Clerk. Addresses will remain on the registry until notification to the Town Clerk that the Owner or Occupant wishes to be removed. This list will be provided to licensees conducting business pursuant to Chapter 153 of the Town Code.
Residents of the Villages of Briarcliff, Pleasantville, and Sleepy Hollow must sign up with their Village, if available. Please contact them for more information.
How can I sign up for the No Knock Registry?
Complete the online No Knock Registration Form. Upon submission, the address will be added to the Registry.
If I sign up for the Registry, will the Town give my name to salespeople?
No. Anyone permitted by the Town to solicit in Mount Pleasant pursuant to Ch. 153 of the Town Code will receive a list of addresses they are prohibited from approaching.
I don’t want to register. Is there anything else I can do to prevent salespeople from knocking on my door?
Residents may assert their own property rights against commercial sales by placing a “No Soliciting” sign on their property.
What should I do if a salesperson knocks on my door after I sign up for the No Knock Registry?
Call the Mount Pleasant Police Department non-emergency number at 914-769-1941 to report the incident. Calling immediately helps police to easily locate the individual(s).
Will this keep everyone from knocking on my door?
In accordance with the Constitution of the United States and rulings of the United States Supreme Court, please be advised that registration upon the “No Knock” Registry shall in no way prohibit door-to-door solicitation by religious or political organizations.
What if I want to be removed from the No Knock Registry?
You can be removed from the registry at any time by submitting the No Knock Registry Removal Form via email to the Town Clerk. You may also submit in person or by mail to the Town Clerk’s Office, 1 Town Hall Plaza, Valhalla, NY 10595. Upon receipt, your address will be removed from the Registry.
Who do I contact with additional questions about this process?
Contact the Town Clerk’s Office at 914-742-2312.
