Site work is cleared to begin on Publix's warehouse and return center at 2600 County Line Road.

Publix Super Markets is building a warehouse and return center at 2600 County Line Road. The city issued a site work permit in July 2026, covering the earthwork and site preparation for a project that was previously approved under site plan SIT24-021.

The site work alone carries a valuation of about $23.5 million. Gray Construction is listed as the applicant, with Phillips Heavy Inc. handling the site work as contractor and Publix listed as the property owner.

The records here cover the site work stage; details about the building itself, its size, and an opening date are not yet public.
