The Dawson County branches of Community & Southern and Bank of the Ozarks, for now, will not be affected following last week's announcement that the banks are merging. "Branches have not been evaluated for any possible consolidations," said Bank of the Ozarks Executive Vice President Susan Blair. Bank of the Ozarks is set to acquire Community and Southern Bank's $800 million in assets, according to a statement released on Oct. 20.
