Central Park-Not going down without a fight

[toothman]

Excerpt from article in Daily News

The transit union representing Central Park carriage-horse owners and drivers is suing the non-profit leading the charge to ban the industry, claiming a “pattern of malice” against its members.

The Transport Workers Union, which represents the roughly 200 owners and drivers who operate horse-drawn carriages in Central Park, filed suit against New Yorkers for Clean Livable and Safe Streets — NYCLASS — in New York Supreme Court Monday, alleging the group knowingly spreads false claims in an effort to build support for a ban carriage horses.

“NYCLASS has used unlawful means, including, but not limited to, misrepresentation to the public and third parties, and/or acted with the purpose of harming the carriage drivers and their business, under the pretense of animal rights,” the complaint reads.

The union accuses the non-profit of tortious interference for allegedly attempting to undercut the carriage-horse industry.

The suit is the first legal action to be filed since the Daily News reported that the TWU was gearing up to sue Adams administration officials as well as NYCLASS staff over the ongoing carriage horse debate. Ending the tradition has gained significant political support over the last year, including from the Central Park Conservancy and Mayor Adams.

it’s funny you mention this yesterday I saw where last summer a carriage horse collapsed in the street and they were hosing him down with cold water! Something must be done, but I’m sure the new Muslim Mayor will do nothing.

He's called Mayor Elect, until he's sworn in.

This MAGA is dumb!

You're right about Mamdani showing racism. It made the News. Some people prefer to keep their heads buried in the sand.

I don't know what the next Mayor will do on this issue, but as a New Yorker, I've always been against the carriage horse industy. But if they are to keep it as part of the "unique charm" of NYC, I hope they tighten up the regulations to insure the horse are treated humanely and with great care.

[Trigger]

I'm for the NYC carriage industry to go on.

But not with the horses.

Use NY felons and have them wear a FATSO Trump suit and Netanyahu mask when pulling the carriages.

Socialist Dems love the animals.

Don't mess with the Zohran!
