Development Foundation The FDIC proposal to remove CRA obligations from lending institutions is a terrible idea. This will make a bad situation worse in many rural communities, especially those that have been hit with huge manufacturing job losses in the past few years ( as we have). We rely on our local banks to invest in our local area. If they are not required to do so, then we will see: 1) more job losses, 2) a decrease in new business start-ups, 3) small economic development organizations will go out of business as funding from banks is eliminated, and 4) a cease in lending for construction of low to moderate income housing . Please stop this proposal….it’s a bad idea from our standpoint. Timothy P. Coursey, CEcD
