(PALMER LAKE, Colo.) — At the Palmer Lake Board of Trustees meeting on Thursday, the board voted 4-1 that Buc-ee's is eligible to annex the land for an El Paso County location.

This does not mean the Buc-ee's is confirmed, it simply means that Buc-ee's can now apply to annex the land.

WEDNESDAY 12/11/2024 9:23 p.m.

On Thursday, Dec. 12, the Palmer Lake Board of Trustees will decide whether a proposed Buc-ee's is eligible to annex the land for the site.

If approved, the popular rest stop would be built west of I-25 on County Line Road, just south of Larkspur.

At a contentious meeting on Dec. 3, site developers tried to provide their plans and proposals for the site to ease community concerns, however many community members made their voices heard, often interrupting the developers to protest the development.

The meeting kicks off at 6:00 p.m. on Thursday at Palmer Lake Town Hall.
