As many of you may recall, ARFF began standing up against the carriage hoses in downtown St Augustine in the 1990's, protesting, doing community outreach, and attending city council meetings resulting in extensive media coverage on the issue.

VICTORY! 2012: The City of St. Augustine finalized an ordinance that includes protections for carriage horses that ARFF had demanded for many years, including a requirement that horses be provided water after every tour, and a rule that horses must be pulled off the streets if the temperature reaches 95 degrees. Although ARFF would like to see carriage horses off the streets altogether, the new ordinance will make a real difference for horses.

Horses and traffic dont mix and summer streets are too hot! Help us speak up for the horses.
