Johanna Jensen of Cowlick’s Ice Cream (she wears many volunteer hats as well) says she and other locals are lobbying Fort Bragg City Hall to save the horse and buggy tie-down rings attached to sidewalks in six different locations.
Yes, you heard right, there are six, big heavy steel rings that once provided a place for folks to secure their horses when coming to town to shop.
Their existence was threatened recently when the city decided they would be pulled up along with the old pavement currently being removed to make way for the new roadway along Franklin Street.
Johanna says “talks” are underway to keep them where they are with the proviso they would be pushed a little lower into the sidewalk to prevent people from tripping on them. At present, must three of the six are threatened.
