Credit Union ONE houses City of Ferndale offices

New location for City of Ferndale 43rd District Court

Ferndale, Michigan – For Credit Union ONE it has always been about Community and part of that is evidenced in how they interact with the local governmental and city offices when there is a need.

Recently, the City of Ferndale approached Credit Union ONE as they needed a building where they could temporarily relocate in order for the city offices to be remodeled. Credit Union ONE was pleased to be able to give the City use of some of its’ office space just across the street from their headquarters, and so after obtaining approval from the City Council, earlier this month the 43rd District Court and some police offices moved into its’ new space.

“We couldn’t be happier to have such a partner as Credit Union ONE in this project,” said April Lynch, City Manager of Ferndale. “It was a wonderful convenience to be able to move just across the street thanks to the accommodation by Credit Union ONE.”

According to the City, the renovation plan has been a long-time in the works which is expected to take approximately a year to complete.

“This is what Community is all about, reaching out and helping when we can,” said Thomas Schaeffler, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of Credit Union ONE. “It was very professional and enjoyable working out the details with the City of Ferndale.”

Credit Union ONE has remained steadfast in their feelings about the community they began in, and so after 75 years, it’s no surprise that they have stayed headquartered in Ferndale.

Credit Union ONE, headquartered in Ferndale Michigan for seventy-five years, offers a wide array of financial services and access to over 30,000 ATM’s nationwide, serving 106,000 members, with eighteen offices in three major metropolitan areas, including Metro Detroit, Grand Rapids and Traverse City.
