Publix Store 0671 is being renovated, with a loading dock enclosure and new sprinkler work.
Publix Store 0671 at 2125 E Hwy 540A in Lakeland is going through a renovation. County permits describe work on 7,300 square feet of the store, including enclosing a 650-square-foot loading dock.
A companion fire-sprinkler permit covers adding, removing, and relocating sprinkler heads to the 2019 NFPA 13 standard. Both the renovation permit and the sprinkler permit are in the inspections phase, meaning work is underway.
The store has also pulled routine seasonal permits for indoor retail sales of state-approved sparklers in recent years, a minor temporary use separate from the remodel.
