Quebec Committee starts campaign for new community center Members of Citizens for the Englewood Community Ce nter have started an organized campaign to build public support for a pro- posed $4 .68 bond issue to build the facility . Residents will vote on the pro posal May 17 . Chairman Bob Brundage and Vice Chairmen Jim Taylor and Don Fullerton said several subcommittees have been estab- lished to assure all residents are fully in- formed of the advantages of building the center . f he committee was hampered some- what by the fact that negotiations for the p1topo sed si te have not been co mpleted .

FULLERTON AND FORMER Mayor Taylor emphasized the need . "Englewood citizens can be proud of their city services such as police, fire and streets. but we are still lacking one very important service that nearly every othe r community has -a community center for the people ." Taylor said . "If cities like Northglenn, Thornton , Louisville. Broomfield.
