OPB’s Safeway branch to close Friday Expect to be in a shelter where people must provide for themselves for these items. This message brought to you by the West Lane Emergency Operations Group www.wleog.org After consideration of the bank’s clients, staff, sharehold- ers and the community, Oregon Pacific Bank has announced the planned consolidation of the Florence Safeway Branch operations into the Florence main branch at 1355 Highway 101. The decision was made as a result of the steady decline in over-the-counter transactions at the Safeway branch over the past two years. Although the number of local Florence area clients has grown, the client-based trans- actions at the Safeway Branch have declined, with virtually 100 percent of all new account, lending and wealth manage- ment services being adminis- tered directly from the Florence main branch. The decision to consolidate will allow Oregon Pacific Bank to focus on delivering better service to local clients from the central point of the Florence branch. The last day of operations at the Safeway branch will be Friday, July 31. In order to meet the needs of clients who have enjoyed the extended hours at the Safeway branch, Oregon Pacific Bank will be increasing banking hours at its main branch. Beginning Saturday, Aug. 1, it will have the following hours of operation: Monday through Friday, from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., with the drive through opening at 8:30 a.m.; and Saturdays, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. “We are excited to see all of our Florence clients at the main branch,” said Ron Green, president and CEO. “Our clients will have access to all of our services and extended hours in one location, and the luxury of two drive-up teller lanes and a drive-through ATM.” Additionally, online and mobile services are available to clients who need access to their banking at any time or place, said Green.
