CORTLANDVILLE, N.Y. — The Summit Federal Credit Union has announced plans to relocate its Cortland branch to a new building set for construction in the town of Cortlandville.
The credit union currently operates at 143 Main Street in downtown Cortland. The new location is a few miles away in what the organization describes as a “popular retail area,” in a news release issued Feb. 22.
Construction of the new 2,000-square-foot branch at 877 Route 13 will begin in the coming months, with an opening planned for next winter, Dave Harnish, Summit’s VP of information technology, told BJNN in a telephone interview on Friday.
