• that any unlawful obstruction or nuisance should be removed from any way, river or channel which is or may be lawfully used by the public, or from any public place, or
• that the conduct of any trade or occupation, or the keeping of any goods or merchandise, is injurious to the health or physical comfort of the community, and that in consequence such trade or occupation should be prohibited or regulated or such goods or merchandise should be removed or the keeping thereof regulated, or

• that any tank, well or excavation adjacent to any such way or public place should be fenced in such manner as to prevent danger arising to the public, or
• that any dangerous animal should be destroyed, confined or otherwise disposed of,

such Magistrate may make a conditional order requiring the person causing such obstruction or nuisance, or carrying on such trade or occupation, or keeping any such goods or merchandise, or owning, possessing or controlling such building, tent, structure, substance, tank, well or excavation, or owning or possessing such animal or tree, within a time to be fixed in the order,

• to remove such obstruction or nuisance ; or

• to prevent or stop the erection of, or to remove, repair or support, such building, tent or structure ; or
• to remove or support such tree ; or
• to alter the disposal of such substance ; or
• to fence such tank, well or excavation, as the case may be ; or
• to destroy, confine or dispose of such dangerous animal in the manner provided in the said order ;
• or, if he objects so to do,
