The inability to achieve expected rents will have a significant impact on project's feasibility. It is recommended that the market study be done immediately before additional PLP funds are expended.

  • August 26, 2019 Re: Merger of Friends Bank with FAIRWINDS Credit Union Dear
    August 26, 2019 Re: Merger of Friends Bank with FAIRWINDS Credit Union Dear [Customer’s First Name], Friends Bank (Friends) will soon merge with FAIRWINDS Credit Union (FAIRWINDS). The merger is expected to be completed on or about September 30, 2019, and we are excited to welcome you as a member of FAIRWINDS Credit Union. As a credit union, FAIRWINDS is a not-for-profit financial institution that believes in the philosophy of “People Helping People.” Like Friends, FAIRWINDS is a state-chartered financial institution licensed and supervised by the Florida Office of Financial Regulation. As a federally-insured financial institution, FAIRWINDS, like Friends, is also subject to regulation and supervision by a federal regulatory agency, the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA), the agency that also administers the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund (NCUSIF), the federal fund that insures members’ deposits in federally insured credit unions. With FAIRWINDS, your money is safe and continues to be insured. Following the merger, your deposits will be insured by the NCUSIF in the same way that your deposits with Friends are now insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). For details regarding the difference between the NCUSIF and FDIC insurance, please refer to the attachment to this letter titled NCUA and FDIC Insurance Compared. As a result of the merger, FAIRWINDS will acquire all of Friends’ operations and assets, including loans, and it will assume all of Friends deposit obligations. If you are currently a Friends depositor, FAIRWINDS will convert your current account(s) at Friends to like account(s) at FAIRWINDS, and your account(s) will be insured by NCUSIF.
