Mid Oregon Credit Union Receives Approval for Expansion
The member-owned, full-service financial institution headquartered in Bend announced today that the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) has approved its application to expand its community charter boundaries. In addition to serving all of Deschutes, Crook, and Jefferson Counties, the new charter allows Mid Oregon Credit Union to serve people who live, worship, work, or attend school in Lake and Wheeler Counties, and in Northern Klamath County that is part of the COCC tax district.
“This approval opens up new areas of opportunity and also restores a historical relationship with Wheeler County, which was part of our charter from 1961 to 1998. We look forward to introducing ourselves in the new area and re-establishing our connections in Wheeler County” said Bill Anderson, President/CEO of Mid Oregon.
For clarity, the Klamath County zip codes included in the charter expansion are:
97733 – Crescent, Crescent Lake, Odell Lake
97737 – Gilchrist
97739 – Those portions of Klamath County taking mail delivery out of La Pine (e.g. Jackpine Village)
A new La Pine branch is under construction with an estimated completion date of June 2016. La Pine residents and the newly approved charter area will have access to the new full-service branch. The branch will offer a full service drive-up ATM, a 24 hour access walk-up ATM, and is designed to offer a full range of services. The Credit Union also offers its members convenient online and mobile banking services, including remote deposit and debit card security applications.
