This location would be the first on the Treasure Coast and the furthest south in Florida.
Florida Today said the site plan would be reviewed and would likely not require a commission vote to approve.
This gas station would have 120 gas pumps and 778 parking spaces, according to Florida Today.
This would mark the fourth location in Florida, with other locations in Daytona Beach, St. Augustine and one developing in Ocala.
Buc-ee’s, the brainchild of Arch Aplin III, first opened in Texas in 1982, expanding throughout the state before expanding across the South, including in Florida in recent years.
The store offers numerous gas pumps, clean bathrooms, Beaver Nuggets (caramel popcorn), Texas-style brisket sandwiches, fresh jerky, T-shirts, hats, blankets, mugs and more.
