The Locust Grove City Council voted at its Sept. 2 regular meeting to approve an amendment to the city’s office-institutional zoning districts pertaining to banks and other financial institutions.
Those businesses have been considered in line with OI zoning since they do not have a traditional retail component, but they “are not identified as permitted uses outright,” according to city officials. The amending ordinance declares that they should be allowed as permitted uses except in cases when drive-thru facilities are proposed, at which time they would be classified as conditional uses, requiring additional review by staff and a public hearing before the mayor and council.
