There have been discussions over the past 10 years about bringing a branch to Bright. The bank has collaborated with K4 Architecture and Maxwell Construction to bring this project to life, and work has been taking place since June.
"I want to tip my cap to Maxwell Construction. They have been excellent to work with. We have worked with them on several of our banks in the past. I can't say how much I appreciate the effort they have put in to get this thing going as quickly as possible," said CEO Chris Meyer.
Meyer added that the bank will open on a Monday. The aim is to be open for the first time on Monday, January 27.
"We look forward to serving Bright. It's going to be a lot of fun," Meyer added.
