The City of Benton Planning Commission has officially approved both a site and utilities plan for Buc-ee’s to open their first Arkansas location.
According to a report by KTHV, the massive convenience store chain will off exit 114 along Interstate-30 but there is no official address set just yet.
Buc-ee’s representatives were in attendance at the planning commission meeting held on Tuesday night and they requested three different variants for their convenience store location.
They requested to be able to put up a sign near the highway that is between 125 and 150 feet tall. The commission tabled the project from being able to move forward until Buc-ee’s does a sign survey to see what the height of the sign will officially be before deciding.
However, the commission did approve landscaping to allow trees to be planted closer than 60 feet apart from one another.
The commission also approved the request for specific medians and walkways to be placed for the convenience store.
