Horizon Credit Union to move Post Falls branch

Spokane Valley-based Horizon Credit Union is relocating its Post Falls branch to 920 N. Highway 41, Suite 10. Doors to the new branch will open on Monday.

Horizon's current Post Falls branch resides at 565 Vest St., south of Interstate 90.

The relocation will move the branch to a 1,700-square-foot space on the north side of the freeway in the River City Center retail complex.

"The new branch is more centrally located at Highway 41 and Mullan," said Brian Grytdal, Horizon's vice president of marketing. "We think members and potential members will find the new location more convenient and easier to access."

Grytdal says the new location will also have additional services including a drive through, a deposit taking ATM, and a self-service center with Internet access to Horizon's Web site and Home Banking.

All three Horizon employees at the current location will move to the new branch and branch hours of operation will still be Monday through Friday from 9:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. The Credit Union is planning for a grand opening celebration in August.
