One bank's changeover is another bank's opportunity

Santa Cruz County Bank plans special hours this Saturday, appealing to former Coast Commercial Bank customers to stay with a locally owned bank. The Capitola office at 819 Bay Ave. and the Santa Cruz office at 325 Soquel Ave. will be open from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
The special hours are due to the acquisition of Coast Commercial by Wells Fargo, said Mary Anne Carson of Santa Cruz County Bank, founded in Santa Cruz in 2003.
"We are committed to providing personalized services for individuals and businesses," said David Heald, Santa Cruz County Bank president and chief operating officer.
"Saturdays are nothing new for Wells Fargo," said Julie Campbell, spokeswoman for San Francisco-based Wells Fargo.
"Most Wells Fargo locations are open on Saturdays."
