A Chipotle is coming to Highland City.
Polk County permit records show a $300,000 tenant buildout at 4330 Central Ave, a few blocks off US-98.
It's going to have a drive-thru lane.
A permit filed in August is for a clearance bar "in the drive-thru lane," with a 9-foot clearance.
Sign permits filed the same month cover three wall signs, a monument sign and a post sign.
A fire suppression permit for the kitchen hood followed on Oct. 16.
Work is underway.
County inspectors signed off on the underground plumbing on Oct. 28.
It's still got a ways to go, though. County records show 16 inspections still upcoming, including the fire marshal's final.
It's part of the same new strip as the Starbucks coming to Highland City.
Permits on the same stretch also show a new Take 5 Oil Change at 4308 Central.
No opening date has been announced.
We found this by monitoring Polk County's public permit portal.
