"By supporting our Feeding America and Shared Table partners, my mission is to help increase access to meals and support those experiencing food insecurity in the area."

Chick-fil-A eyeing former Frisch's site for new Xenia location. By Brooke Jones, WHIO.com August 14, 2026 at 4:02 pm EDT XENIA - A Chick-fil-A is one step closer to coming to Xenia. Xenia City Planner Brian Forschner confirmed the city's Planning and Zoning Commission approved an Alternative Equivalent Review for the fast food chain. The review is a waiver of some of the city's architectural standards. Forschner added that it meant the façade design was approved. News Center 7 obtained the application for the review, which reveals that developers want to put the Chick-fil-A at the former Frisch's site on W. Main Street. The design would include a drive-thru, two freestanding canopies, a refuse enclosure, a patio, and a playground, according to the application. Forschner said the next steps for the applicants are to prepare a complete set of building and site plans and submit them to the city staff for review and approval.
