I'm resending the first article of the 29 July Weekly Update with a corrected
link to the rural smart growth report. My apologies.
REPORT: RURAL SMART GROWTH
--------------------------
On Monday, July
29, the Northeast-Midwest Institute will release a new report, Smart
Growth at the Frontier: Strategies and Resources for Rural
Communities. The report illustrates promising rural growth
strategies that revitalize small towns; link natural resource protection with
resort and residential development; maintain farm and forest land; and
coordinate regional development. Printed copies of this report may be purchased
by calling 202/544-5200.
