After a Month of Public Comments, Orange County Sends Buc-eeâs Back to the Drawing Board
Designed by Jon Fuller
As the nation fixed its eyes on Washington pomp on the eve of Joe Bidenâs inauguration, some Triangle residents were focused on a local commissioners meeting that could mean changes for the entire area.
On January 19, the Orange County Board of Commissioners spent hours discussing Efland Station, a proposed rezoning project anchored by a massive gas station in the northern part of Orange County. The commissioners asked questions and gave comments, grilling the applicant on its plans for the future. They could have voted; they didnât.
The project, if passed, would include a Buc-ee's travel center, hotel, restaurants and commercial space. It's received vocal opposition from some Orange County residents.
