Both credit unions said they have decided to remain independent for now.

The merger was announced a year again October 2010, when officials of both credit unions said product and service expansion and branch expansion in pursuing the merger. In March, Northwest Community’s president and CEO unexpectedly resigned to care for her ailing husband, prompting Northwest to search for a new president and CEO.
