New Home, New Name for Norton Community CU

SAN BERNARDINO, Calif. - Norton Community CU has a new name and will soon have a new office to call its home. The $150 million credit union changed its name to AltaVista CU on April 1 and will break ground next week on a new headquarters in the nearby Redlands. The credit union, chartered in 1943 to serve civilian employees at Norton Air Force Base, was converted to a multiple group credit union in 1994 after the air base closed, then to a community charter in 200 covering San Bernardino County. Plans for the new headquarters call for a 22,000 square-foot home office and branch.
