Additionally, the new facility will greatly enhance the organization\u2019s infrastructure and operational efficiency.<\/p>\n<p>The new facility will be located at 3035 E. Mound Rd. in Decatur, IL and previously was the site of a Veterans Affairs Medical Clinic until moving to a new location in 2018. The building and site have been vacant since. The new facility also happens to sit directly across the street from LLCU\u2019s existing Mound Road branch. Once the new Operations Facility is completed and the attached branch is open, the LLCU Mound branch currently located at 3130 E. Mound Road will be permanently closed.<\/p>\n<p>Site preparation is already underway at what will ultimately be a nearly 13,000 square foot facility sitting on a total of nearly 11 acres. Once open, it will house LLCU Internal Operations personnel for Accounting, Operations, Information Technology, Collections, and Loan Processing. Additionally, the branch side of the facility will feature new and advanced technology to include 24-hour Interactive Teller Machines (ITMs) both inside and outside of the building.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Land of Lincoln Credit Union held a ceremony on September 18th celebrating the groundbreaking of a new operations center with attached branch on Mound Road in Decatur.
