Essential

vehicle and pedestrian access
at least three nearby parking spaces dedicated for well users
security lighting in area of well (ideally solar powered LED)
platform or shelf of some kind to set large containers -- or boxes of
containers – on
shut-off valve (accessible only to proper authorities) in case of
unforeseen problems with water quality

Important

roof over area where well-users stand to fill containers
shallow catch-basin that is easily cleaned, and collects enough water
for dogs to drink from
underground drain line to the storm water runoff system, to prevent
ice forming on asphalt in winter
trash bin

Would Be Nice

taller pipe so people with bad backs don't have to bend over
double-spouted pipe – T shaped, with two spouts at 180 degrees from
each other
one of the two spouts of a smaller diameter than the present one, for
filling small containers
small park bench
community bulletin board
historical marker
small planter(s)

Dave, you know that if the city can't tax it and charge for it, they are not going to provide for it.  That is not how they work.  But, you are absolutely right!  Wouldn't that be the most gorgeous water site--could be a tourist site or wedding site or ???  I am not holding up my hopes for it.  We are dealing with the city of Olympia, right?  Carol

A bit extravagant to be sure, I just hope that one day it can be a peaceful community gathering spot...doesn't need to be fancy at all :O)

Agree, totally with you, Dave.  It could just be so wonderful.  It is about time.  Carol
