Municipal Equestrian
Care Center

Within the framework of the program for the eradication of animal-drawn traction (TAS), in the area of Castillo San Carlos, adjacent to the municipal nursery "CAAPORA", the new equestrian care center is located, approved by Municipal Ordinance No. 37.070/2019,

The space arises as a response to the demands of residents who requested a place where the shelter and recovery of equines in the aforementioned situations could be addressed.

In accordance with universal animal rights, the Deliberative Council approved the creation of this space intended to house and contain equines that are retained for different reasons and which has adequate facilities regarding access, hygiene, and management of the equines housed there. The property, owned by the Municipality, has dimensions consistent with the quantity, type, and species of the equines that are retained, shade, potable water supply, and forage storage.
