Schemes have been under consideration for various other improvements,
many of which will no doubt be developed in the future. The Vestry
made an offer which was not accepted by the trustees, for the site of the
St. John's National School, Walham Green. The intention was to effect
some improvements in the Broadway and vanston Place.
Other improvements will be found in Schedule IX.

The above table shows a great increase in the number of Vestry and
Committee meetings held. All these (with very few exceptions), are held
in the evening, and the number and great length of them is a severe
strain on those officials who have to be in attendance.
STAFF.
Various changes have taken place in the staff of my department. On
the 25th September, 1891, Mr. F. W. J. Palmer, who had been AssistantSurveyor
since March, 1886, obtained the appointment of Surveyor to the
Local Authority at Heme Bay. He left with high class references, having
earned the esteem and goodwill of the Vestry and his brother officers.
Mr. Charles Botterill, the Chief Out-door Assistant, succeeded him as
Assistant-Surveyor, and Mr. A. J. Webb, Clerk of Works, succeeded
Mr. Botterill. The vacancy caused by these promotions was filled on the
24th of November.
