Sorry I really hate this line of thinking.

I also hate privatising costs for social services so we're in agreement on that....

... but no cost faced by the municipality is trivial. They correct taxes to pay for it. You can go to the meetings and have your say in how it's spent. More water fountains means more money.

If it were up to me we would increase taxes so we could have all the fountains.
