Subject: FDIC proposal re: cra

On behalf of the City of Palmetto Florida Community Redevelopment Agency, I am writing to request the withdrawal of the proposal to increase the asset threshold for the CRA "streamlined" exam. If this FDIC proposal is approved it will negatively impact affordable housing and community development in cities and towns throughout Florida, and across the country.

Sincerely,

Tanya Lukowiak
Executive Director
