Buc-ee's, a well-known convenience store and gas station based in Texas, has its sights set on expanding to Colorado. Exciting news for Colorado residents and travelers passing through, as Buc-ee's is known for its clean facilities, wide selection of products, and famous brisket. The company is currently in the initial stages of planning for their second location in Colorado, which will be in Palmer Lake.
According to a recent Facebook post by Palmer Lake's Mayor, Glant Havenar, Buc-ee's has expressed interest in annexing land for their potential gas station at County Line Road and Interstate 25. The Palmer Lake Board of Trustees has granted an eligibility hearing for the company, which is scheduled to take place on December 12th. Mayor Havenar clarified that this meeting is not for the purpose of annexing the land, but rather to determine if the owner is eligible to move forward with the process. Residents are encouraged to attend the meeting to learn more, ask questions, and share their thoughts.
In the event that Buc-ee's is deemed eligible for annexation at the hearing, the company plans to hold a series of community meetings. This will give residents the opportunity to voice their opinions and concerns before any further steps are taken. Any subsequent annexation request would also require public hearings. It is clear that Buc-ee's wants to involve the community in their expansion plans and address any potential issues that may arise.
For those familiar with Buc-ee's, it comes as no surprise that the company is generating such buzz in Colorado. With its popular beaver dolls and delicious snacks, the first Colorado location in Johnstown drew in large crowds during its grand opening earlier this year. The store, located at the southwest corner of Interstate 25 and Colorado 60, has quickly become a go-to destination for travelers and locals alike.
Founded in 1982, Buc-ee's has gained a loyal following with its 50 stores across the United States, mainly in Texas. Their unique concept of a large, clean, and well-stocked convenience store has proven to be a winning formula. And now, Colorado is next in line to experience the Buc-ee's phenomenon.
While the company is keeping tight-lipped about the potential location in Palmer Lake, they have stated that they cannot provide any comments at this time. But with the success of their first store in Colorado, it's safe to say that Buc-ee's will continue to make waves and expand to new locations in the future.
