5.44.026 Lease of Property.

It is unlawful to sell at a garage sale any goods other than goods legally owned by a resident of the private residence, or an immediate neighbor participating in the sale, and commercial merchandise may not be included in any such sale.

No merchandise shall be purchased and brought upon the premises for resale. Only the personal property of the residents or immediate neighbors may be sold. “Personal property” does not include property that has been consigned to, or acquired for the purpose of resale, but is limited to personal property which is utilized, owned and maintained by an individual or by members of a residence and acquired in the normal course of living in or maintaining of a residence; provided, however, such property may include salesperson promotional and advertising items not originally purchased or acquired for sale to the consumer.
