Statement of Purpose

STATEMENT OF PURPOSE: This resolution authorizes a new three-year agreement with Top Hat Carriage Services LLC (“Top Hat”) for use of space in Canal Park to temporarily hitch horses and carriages for $500.00 per year.  Top Hat owns and operates a horse carriage service that provides the public with recreational horse drawn carriage rides through Canal Park.  The City’s previous agreement with Top Hat has now expired. 

 

The designed space for hitching lies within the Lighthouse Lot, but outside any of the parking spaces.  The exact location is depicted on Exhibit A to the attached Exhibit 1.  Top Hat may use the designated space seven days a week May 1 through December 31 during each year of the term between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 10:00 p.m.  Top Hat is responsible to maintain the licensed area in a clean and orderly condition. The City does not have any contractual maintenance obligations for the area used by Top Hat.
