New community bank to open

SUSSEX COUNTY-A group of business and community leaders from Sussex County are in the process of forming a full-service community bank, Noble Community Bank, which will be the only bank with headquarters in Sparta. "The bank will be unique in a couple of ways," said Brian Fitzpatrick, President and Chief Executive Officer of Noble Community Bank. "We'll be the only bank presently headquartered in Sparta, and we'll provide the residents with an independent, locally-managed and predominantly locally-owned bank,." Noble Community bank will operate as an independent community bank offering a full range of deposit and loan products and services targeting small and medium-sized businesses, local professionals and individuals residing, working and shopping in and around Sparta.
