Eltham & District Community Bank® Branch

Diamond Creek Community Bank® Branch
A significant amount of work and public consultation has been undertaken in
relation to the feasibility of establishing the Diamond Creek Community BankŪ Branch
of Bendigo Bank which is a sub-branch of Hurstbridge & Districts Community
BankŪ Branch.
The public response to this feasibility study was very positive in respect
of both the number of surveys returned and the volume of business identified.
The results of the feasibility study were presented to the committee and it
was subsequently unanimously voted to proceed towards the establishment of
the Diamond Creek Community BankŪ Branch.

Hurstbridge & Districts Community Bank® Branch
A group of interested community members was briefed by Bendigo Bank on 18 March
1999 in relation to a proposal to establish Hurstbridge & Districts Community
BankŪ Branch and a committee was formed to evaluate the proposal.
A preliminary public meeting was held to discuss the Community BankŪ concept
and the steps required to establish a Community BankŪ Branch of Bendigo
Bank at Hurstbridge.
As a result‚ the committee engaged an independent consultant to conduct a
feasibility study in relation to the proposal.
The results of the feasibility study were presented to the committee at a
meeting held on 23 March 2000 and it was unanimously voted to proceed with a
Community BankŪ Branch for Hurstbridge.
The branch was officially opened for business on 6 April 2001.
