Bank Independent and the City of Hartselle held a groundbreaking ceremony on Tuesday, August 12, to mark the beginning of construction on a new sales office located at 1211 US-31.![Hartselle Groundbreaking-6](https://blog.bibank.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Hartselle%20Groundbreaking-6.jpg?width=500&height=333&name=Hartselle%20Groundbreaking-6.jpg)

“We are excited about reinvesting in Hartselle,” says Macke Mauldin, CEO of Bank Independent. “With this new facility, we are reaffirming our commitment to the people and businesses that make Hartselle so special. Our goal is to serve the communities we are in and make a positive difference in those same communities. And we’re thrilled to be able to do that in Hartselle.”

Originally built in 1980 by New Community Bank and Trust, the existing 7,800-square-foot structure became part of the Bank Independent portfolio through the Colonial Bank acquisition on November 11, 2005. After 20 years of serving the Hartselle community in the current location, a strategic decision was made to explore the option of relocating and building a new, purpose-designed sales office. This led to the identification of a highly visible and accessible property near Walmart — a location deemed ideal for long-term growth and community engagement.

“I’m very excited to see Bank Independent building a new sales office and am excited to celebrate the groundbreaking that’s happening this morning,” Hartselle Mayor Randy Garrison said. “Bank Independent has been a community partner for many years and it’s great to see them reinvest in the city.”

Along with the mayor, Bank Independent was proud to join with the Hartselle Chamber of Commerce to celebrate the new construction of the sales office and a bright future for the city of Hartselle.

Bank Independent is excited to work with a strong project team to bring the new facility to life:

- **Lambert, Ezell, Durham** – Architect
- **Fite Building Company** – General Contractor
- **Shoals Engineering** – Electrical Engineer
- **MDS Mechanical** – Mechanical Engineer
- **LBYD, Inc.** – Structural Engineer
- **Pugh Wright McAnally, Inc.** – Civil Engineer
- **Bostick Landscape Architects** – Landscape Architect
- **Building & Earth** – Geotechnical Engineer

Construction on the 3,800 square foot sales office will begin now and is scheduled to be completed in the latter half of 2026.
