It is the judgment of the Town Council that in order to enable the town bus system to function properly and to protect pedestrians within the town that controlling the number of horsedrawn carriages operating within the town is within the public interest. To this end, the maximum number of horsedrawn carriages to be operated regularly on the streets of Vail is a total of six to be allocated to all approved companies. The Town Manager has the authority to specify the locations of operation of the horsedrawn carriages. The maximum and minimum number of horsedrawn carriages operated by any approved company shall at all times be within the limits determined by the Town Council and Town Manager applying the principles of a public convenience and necessity.
