Street Improvements.
The following Street Improvements have been under consideration by
??? Vestry since March, 1895:—
Fulham Road.
Widening between
Fire Station and
Messrs. Stansfeld's
By direction of the Vestry the Surveyor prepared a
report giving his valuation of the various interests in the
forecourts, &c., required to widen the Fulham Road between
the Fire Station and Messrs. Stansfeld's, which was referred
to the Solicitor to report upon; but as it appeared that,
m the prices asked by the various owners, the improvement would cost
???siderably more than the original estimate, it was resolved that the London
???unty Council be approached with a view to their increasing the amount of
???eir promised contribution. The Council were written to accordingly, but
to the time of preparing this report the Vestry had not received the
???ision of the Council thereon.
Widening between
_ Library and
Wheatsheaf Alley.
In May, 1895, the Vestry resolved that the London
County Council be requested to receive a deputation from
the Vestry with reference to the widening of Fulham Road
between the Library and Wheatsheaf Alley (a favourable
portunity having arisen to effect an improvement there), and that in the

???ried out, and the following gentlemen were appointed to serve on the
mutation:—Messrs. Williams, Harrison, Boyton, Comben, Green, Sayer,
rry and Whiteley and the Rev. C. Spooner. The Council having agreed
receive a deputation, they waited on the Council, by appointment, on the
???h September, 1895, when the matter was fully set before the Council by
Tom Green on behalf of the Vestry. Negociations were also entered
??? between the Officers of the Vestry and the Surveyor employed on
