Is there a way to add a user to a local group in Windows with a Group Policy?
Or, would that require a script? Any place where I might find a sample script?

That's the ticket. It even allows a policy which forces domain group within local group.

You could also do this by using a GPO and restricted groups mentioned above.
The way that I would reccomend doing this would be to use group policy preferences if you have a windows 7 machine that you can build the GPP on.

See the section for "Setting local Administrator Passwords /Administering local users and groups". This is much easier than using restricted groups in a GPO.
