MEBANE — Buc-ees, a Texas-based gas station and cultural phenomenon, received approval late Monday for a location along Interstates 85 and 40 in Alamance County between Greensboro and Raleigh.
The Mebane City Council voted to approve a rezoning request following an eight-hour public meeting. Site plans for the location call for a 75,000 square-foot building on 32 acres with up to 120 fuel pumps.
In December 2023, the Mebane Planning and Zoning Board rejected the proposal. However, the city council ultimately approved the project.
The company currently has 58 locations across the southeast with the closest for most NC residents in Florence, S.C.
