Subject: Community Reinvestment -- RIN 3064-AC50
The Community Reinvestment Act is a critical component to Florida's
affordable housing and community development solutions. The City of
Clearwater would oppose any increase to the threshold limits of what is
considered to be a small bank. The proposed FDIC rule would exempt many
of our community's critical partners who participate in our affordable
housing programs from the effective and productive requirements
currently in place under the current rule. I urge the FDIC to withdraw
its proposed rule.
Thank you for your consideration.
