Arroyo Grande bank closes for shortage, to reopen a few days later


The Bank of America’s Arroyo Grande location at 200 W. Branch St. has been closed for in-person service since Tuesday.

A sign visible on the door reads: “Due to circumstances beyond our control, we are temporarily closed. We apologize for the inconvenience caused.”

No date is given for the reopening.

In response to KSBY’s investigation into the shutdown, a bank spokesperson said the bank was “temporarily consolidating its resources and staff.”

In a statement, the spokesperson said the shutdown would last until the end of next week. Online banking resources and on-site ATMs remain open, the bank said.

A viewer contacted KSBY and said customers of the banks had not been notified of the shutdown.

In the statement, the spokesperson said customers can visit another Bank of America site if necessary.

The closest Bank of America open branch offering in-room services is at 1102 Higuera St. in San Luis Obispo.

Other open locations include the Bank of America Center on N. Santa Rosa Street in San Luis Obispo, the Paso Robles branch on Spring St., and the Santa Maria branches on S. Broadway and Town Center E.

The Atascadero Bank of America branch at 6905 Capistrano Ave. is also temporarily closed, according to the Bank of America website.
