Description | The said public fountain has been inspected. Since it has accordingly been understood that the water cannot remain pure due to the dirty water channeled from neighboring houses and that it will not be possible to change the course of the said dirty water, as they were later introduced, the necessary expenses for closing it off have been estimated. These expenses add up to 400 piasters as respected current akçe. As regards collecting the said money from the owners of the six houses specified in the inspection text and carrying out the necessary reparation, it is appropriate to relegate the matter to the Waqfs Accounting and the municipal police force. The 16th of Huzayrân (1)314 (28th of June 1898). |
