Could the Triple Crown development land NKY's first Publix store?

Publix Supermarkets has “nothing to share” about a Northern Kentucky store opening, but a planning document from Boone County offers food for thought. A site plan for the Triple Crown Retail Center shows a “proposed grocery store” measuring 55,701 square feet on a 13-acre site at 420-450 Richwood Road near I-71. The document lists an engineering firm and developer from North Carolina that have built Publix stores before. The store’s size is identical to three stores already announced in Kentucky by the Florida-based grocery chain.
