Buc-ee’s Proposed Stafford Location Faces Street Naming Controversy

Buc-ee's wants to build a new store in Stafford County and name the street where it would sit after itself—Buc-ee's Boulevard.

The Texas-based company that operates a chain of Walmart-like gas stations and convenience stores aims to build its third location in the state on 36 acres at Courthouse Road and Austin Ridge Drive, near Interstate 95. However, the would-be Buc-ee's Boulevard was to be named Israel Rodriguez Drive for Israel (Izzy) Rodriguez, a Rockhill Volunteer Rescue Squad member who died while answering a call on January 28, 1998, to help a crash victim during a rain storm. His ambulance left the road and struck a tree.
