The Exeter Town Council meeting on May 6, 2024, featured a discussion about a door-to-door service operation in the town. The conversation centered around the application process for a company that intends to conduct door-to-door outreach in Exeter.

A representative from the company explained that they recently took over a championship team responsible for applying to operate in Exeter. They clarified their hours of operation, stating that they typically finish their workday around 7:00 PM and would be leaving town by 6:00 PM. The representative emphasized that their approach involves visiting neighborhoods with existing homes and following up with previous customers to offer services, rather than selling products directly at the door.

The representative assured the council that their team would be identifiable, wearing uniforms and carrying identification. However, there was some confusion regarding the vehicle used for operations, as it was noted that the vehicle would not be marked, which raised concerns about visibility and identification during their outreach efforts.

The discussion highlighted the importance of clear communication and community awareness regarding door-to-door services, as well as the need for proper identification to ensure residents feel secure when approached by service representatives. The council did not make any immediate decisions but indicated that further discussions may be necessary to address community concerns.
