RE: RIN 3064-AC50

Dear Mr. Feldman:

I am writing to request that you to withdraw your proposed changes to the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) regulations. My organization, Famicos Foundation, knows firsthand that the CRA has been instrumental in increasing homeownership, boosting economic development, and expanding small businesses in the nation’s low- and moderate-income communities.

In Cleveland, Ohio: The Community Reinvestment Act is a critical component of our community’s affordable housing and community development solutions. For the past 35 years, Famicos Foundation has built and renovated over 700 units and helped to create a number of jobs, improving the lives of low- and moderate-income families in our community. Without strong support from our financial institution partners, this work would not have been possible.

The proposed FDIC rule would exempt many of our community’s key financial partners from the effective and productive requirements currently in place. We oppose any increase to the threshold of what is considered to be a small bank, and we urge the FDIC to withdraw its proposed rule.

Sincerely,

Sandra H. Rose,
Famicos Foundation

Cleveland, OH 44106
