Abstract	In New York, as in many states, "rural" is not synonymous with "agricultural." The Commission on Rural Resources (CRR) supports preservation of agrarian New York State, but also seeks to assist rural citizens with many other challenges: in education, transportation, forestry development, housing, health care, viable business ventures, and building the capacity of local governments to plan for judicious growth and development. This report describes the activities of the CRR during 1988. The Commission created a steering committee of state and local officials to conduct a think-tank seminar for officials working in rural governments, created a rural transportation program integrating schools buses with public transportation systems, worked on water supply and quality issues, addressed health care and transportation difficulties, and pursued state budget allocations for all these programs. The report lists 14 bills drafted by the CRR and sponsored by members during the 1988 legislative session and describes 4 Commission-produced reports, dealing respectively with enhancing New York State's forestry industry, swing-bed care for rural hospitals, integrating school transportation resources into public transportation systems, and problems of disappearing farmland. Networking efforts by the Commission are summarized as are the Commission's activities in sponsoring research and discussion in areas of special interest to rural New York State. A list of Commission publications is included. (DHP)
