The Strawberry Point City Council approved installation of a hitching post on city-owned property across from the city library and civic center under Resolution 26-17.
Staff said the hitching post will allow safe ingress and egress for horse-and-buggy users, will not remove vehicle parking spots, and will include a sign citing city code requiring owners to pick up after animals. The city will also provide educational materials at the library explaining the rules for visitors who arrive by horse and buggy.
