Also defeated were a proposed city pub lic works service center, additional city parks and recreational facilities and a city animal shelter. The de feated propositions would have cost over $10 million. Joyce didn’t rule out the possibil ity of another bond election soon, possibly containing some of the de feated propositions. “I guess we ll go back to the draw ing board,” he said. “But the city is growing and we need to meet those needs.” Citizens need to be better informed of the city’s needs, , he said. City officials were uncertain Saturday whether any legal restric tions would prevent another bond election soon, but they said they will try to find out. If the law will allow, another bond election appears likely in the near future. ui(1 the International Statistical Bology Program will jointly spon sor the institute and a research M’s Institute of Statistics. ■ More than 70 international au- ■orities will participate in the prog- Ini with the topics ranging through Bpulation dynamics, ecological di- 1$ (ivirsity, systems analysis of ecosys tems, and assessment of the envi- n y. ronment.
