Fountain Nuisance cited as danger at Alexandria fountain
The Alexandria council considers removing the public drinking fountain at Cameron and Royal streets after neighbors called it a nuisance. The ornate bronze structure, built around a colonial cannon, often forms an icy sheet from overflow in winter, with no custodian to maintain it. The Streets and General Laws committee recommends removal, signaling a likely council division at the next meeting.
