WATER TROUGHS.
The question of the necessity for Water Troughs in the Commercial
Road was considered, and the Board being of opinion that
it would be desirable to erect two Cattle Troughs at the East and
West ends of the Urinal at the junction of the East and West
India Dock Roads, arrangements were made with the Drinking
Fountain and Cattle Trough Association to put up two troughs,
upon condition that the Board pay to the Association towards the
cost the sum of £50, and also upon condition that the design be
first approved by the Board, and arrangements made for keeping
the troughs fit for use. The troughs have been erected accordingly,
and the sum of £50 has been paid to the Association for
the granite, pursuant to the arrangement. The cost of the water,
management, repairs, &c., is defrayed by the Association.
