Citizens Bank & Trust Breaks Ground on Plant City Office

C itizens Bank & Trust held a groundbreaking ceremony August 26 for the bank’s Plant City office, located on James L. Redman Parkway near Johnson Road. The new site marks the first newly-constructed building outside Polk County in the bank’s 102-year history. “We are honored to be expanding our commitment to Plant City with a new building in the growing Trapnell area,” said Greg Littleton, President and CEO of Citizens Bank & Trust. “As a community bank, now in our third generation of family ownership, we celebrate this milestone in the bank’s history and look forward to serving the individuals and business partners in this community.”

The 3,660-square-foot building, designed by Straughn Trout Architects, features a Mediterranean style design and brick accents, in keeping with other nearby structures in the gateway entrance to Plant City. Miller Construction Management was set to begin the project in September; completion is expected in Fall 2023. Citizens Bank & Trust received FDIC approval earlier this year to expand to Plant City. A temporary full-service office, managed by Sandra Couch, opened June 21 at 1803A James L. Redman Parkway.
