For years, PeoplesBank has been supporting the community in a variety of ways – that’s
what community banks do. We have taken that thought -supporting the community- and extended
it to the environment. Green branch is an office that is built in an environmentally
responsible way. What that means, in this instance, where we received LEED Gold certification,
is that existing land and a building that was already here were reused. So no new land
was taken for this building. Construction materials were recycled, reducing the impact
on landfills. The building was built with locally sourced materials, which saves energy
and also helps local businesses. Being green, doing business in a way that is environmentally
friendly, and supporting energy and community efforts that accomplish the same objectives
is part of our values. That is where our passion lies and it is that passion that makes PeoplesBank
truly unique.
