CORTLAND, N.Y. — Visions Federal Credit Union has plans to open a branch at 137 Clinton Ave. in Cortland later this year.
The office will mark Visions’ first in Cortland County. The new branch is expected to open in late fall at the site of the former Tim Hortons.
The credit union bought the property, Mandy DeHate, assistant VP of marketing at Visions, tells CNYBJ in an email. She declined to say how much it will cost the credit union to open its Cortland branch.
Visions hasn’t yet selected a contractor to prepare the space, but the credit union is working with local contractors in the Cortland area to facilitate landscape maintenance and site-improvement work, according to DeHate.
The credit union is also working with smartDESIGN Architecture, PLLC of Batavia on the design concept, she says.
The Cortland branch will have four or five employees, which will include a mix of existing personnel and new hires.
“Our members in Cortland County have asked for an office for some time, and we’re excited to make it happen,” Ty Muse, president and CEO of Visions Federal Credit Union, said in a statement. “We’re looking forward to bringing more members in and sharing all the good that Visions can do.”
Members can expect more information from Visions and its social-media channels in the months to come, the credit union said.
Endwell–based Visions Federal Credit Union is a nonprofit financial institution completely owned by its members. Established in 1966, Visions serves more than 210,000 members in communities throughout New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania. The credit union has nearly $5.2 billion in total assets, according to data from the National Credit Union Administration.
