Executive Officer Nick Ventimiglia. "We began the year by opening
our twelfth branch, which has turned into a thriving office in
Downtown Monterey. We also celebrated our 20th year as the area's
Premier Local Bank. Now, we're a billion-dollar-strong financial
institution, yet our commitment to customer service, financial
performance and community involvement has not wavered." Central
