    No person shall place any handbill upon any premises if requested by anyone thereon not to do so or there is placed on the premises in a position near the doorway entrance thereof a notice indicating that the occupants of said premises do not desire to have solicitors or do not desire to have handbills left at their premises. Any posted notice on or near the front door to the premises such as "No Solicitors Allowed" or "No Handbills"or similar type language is sufficient notice that handbills shall not be left at the premises.

This prohibition shall not apply if the material is deposited in a box designed to hold the handbills provided the distributor or solicitor has obtained prior permission from the property owner to place a box on the premises for that purpose.
    C. 
    No person may make any alteration or addition to a mailbox post or structure for any purpose without receiving permission from the property owners.
    D. 
    No person shall place any handbill in or upon any private premises except by handing or transmitting any such handbill directly to any person then present in or upon the private premises or by placing or depositing any handbill upon the building or home in such a manner so as to prevent it from being carried away by the elements, or by placing the handbill in a box designed for that purpose.
