Buc-ee’s, a travel staple, could be coming to southern Colorado

PALMER LAKE, Colo. — Buc-ee’s, a basic excursion with a cult, could be coming to southern Colorado.

One post on FacebookPalmer Lake Mayor Glant Havenar said a developer for a potential Buc-ee’s at County Line Road and Interstate 25 has asked about annexing the land outside Palmer Lake’s boundaries.

According to Havenar, anyone requesting one is entitled to an annexation hearing under state statute. The Palmer Town Board will hold an annexation eligibility hearing on Dec. 12.

Havenar said the city cannot comment on the project at this stage.

“I will gather the facts and information and hear from local residents to determine the best course of action when called upon to vote,” the mayor said in his post.

Buc-ee’s is a fan favorite in the Lone Star State. The store was called a road trip destination rather than a stop.

chain opened its first location in Colorado in Johnstown in May. If a location near Palmer Lake in El Paso County is built, it will be the second Buc-ee location in Colorado and the first in southern Colorado.

Havenar encourages residents to attend the Dec. 12 hearing to learn more.
