Red-lining dispute grows in Iowa banking step
Iowa banking official Tom Huston says redlining is hard to define and wants concrete rules to report and curb discriminatory lending. He spoke in Cedar Rapids during an Iowa Bankers Association meeting as area residents push for better community information and a development corporation. Huston notes confidentiality of loan data hampers pinpointing redlining while credit union share drafts have been legalized after state action. Congress faces 1980 deadline to address third party payments.
