The Publix Supermarket in the Trails Shopping Center may soon be demolished and rebuilt, and the community and nearby residents are invited to attend a neighborhood meeting to discuss the project.
The meeting, to be held at 6:30 p.m. on Monday, April 8, at the Anderson-Price building at 42 N. Beach St., is meant to educate and inform residents of the project and gain input on the proposal. SO-Trails LLC is seeking to tear down the existing store and former CVS unit at 220 North Nova Road the shopping center and construct a new one-story Publix spanning 48,387 square feet in its place. The development also includes changes to the parking lot.
The property currently has a Planned Business Development zoning. The plans for the project first reached Ormond Beach's site plan review committee in August 2018. In an email, Planning Director Steven Spraker said the retail use is an allowed use within the shopping center and PBD. There is no Planning Board or City Commission review required. However, Spraker said that should there be a major issue at the neighborhood meeting that cannot be resolved, city staff is allowed to require a special exception for the project that will then need to be reviewed by the Planning Board and City Commission.
