EDMOND, Okla. — A new OnCue fuel stop and store is set to become the first business in the long-planned Honeyfield development in Edmond, Okla., after city leaders signed off on its site plan.
The store will go on the southeast side of the intersection where Kelly Avenue crosses Covell Road, on the northwest edge of Edmond. Plans call for a building of 9,470 square feet on a lot of about 5.1 acres. City development services director Kirsten Ledington said the OnCue is the first business in Honeyfield to be submitted for city approval.
The Edmond Planning Commission backed the site plan without opposition on Oct. 20, and the Edmond City Council approved it at its Monday, Nov. 9 meeting. The project needed an exception to a city rule that calls for at least 325 feet between certain driveways, and the variance drew questions before the vote.
The new station would fill a gap in fuel options on that side of town. The nearest existing stations are about a mile south and a mile east, and the land to the north and west turns mostly to neighborhoods and acreages, which would make the OnCue the northernmost station in that part of Edmond.
Stillwater-based OnCue traces its roots to 1966, took its current brand name in 2004 when two family fuel companies merged, and would count this location as its store No. 156. The family-owned chain has roughly a half-dozen stores in Edmond and about 35 across the Oklahoma City metro.
Honeyfield was rezoned about three years ago, but the broader site has also been tied up in a separate court fight. No opening date for the OnCue has been announced.
