[Adopted 5-13-2003 by Ord. No. 2003-7]
All businesses that employ the use of horses
for commercial purposes must obtain a thermometer and have that thermometer
displayed in a public place on the conveyance pulled by the horse.
Said thermometer must be tested for accuracy every year by the Bucks
County Department of Weights and Measures, and the commercial establishment
must maintain and post the certificate of accuracy from year to year.
When the thermometer reading shows the outside
ambient temperature is 92° F. or more, said horses shall not be
permitted to be used in commercial tasks.
A copy of this article must be posted prominently
on said commercial conveyance.
A commercial establishment committing one such
violation within the year shall be fined $300. A second or subsequent
violation within 90 days of the first shall result in a fine of $1,000.
