The sentence club is scheduled to build the first 40 -year fuel station in Mission Viejo, a coastal city in Orange County located outside Los Angeles in California, according to the United States of America today.
He said: “The upcoming Costco site in California has not had a famous Hot Dog Dog, or grilled chicken, or even a browsing warehouse – only a few dozen gas pumps.”
The first independent fuel station is expected to open in Costco in the spring of 2026.
It will only be available for Costco members.
The Orange County Planning and Transport Committee agreed to retail plans in March.
The building is expected to start this fall.
Costco recently expanded the fuel station hours for its members only until 10 pm throughout the United States, with some sites also opened early in the day.
Planning documents in which the committee considered shows that the project will include the demolition of the closed family bath and Beyond Store.
As an additional reward, the fuel station will be built two miles from the Costco warehouse, according to the WLNS that followed CBS.
“For a retail series that makes changes in children's steps, it is a relatively large leap for Costco.”
Local officials cited their saying that it would be the largest fuel station in the series and its first fuel location only.
However, there are already many Costco ports that sell fuel under the Kirkland brand of the series, the record said.
No retail trade
In addition, the retail seller currently sells gas in his warehouse two miles from the planned site at the Mission Viejo Freeway Center, at 25732 El Paseo.
He added: “However, Mission Viejo documents show that the new Costco site will be only a 40-gasoline pump facility, with no space for retail or store.”
The record said that he had contacted the retail seller for more details, such as the reason for choosing this specified site, although “selling fuel near one of the most busy highways in the country may seem as not smart.”
“Unfortunately, the merchant does not comment on store development plans,” he explained.
US Sun also contacted Costco for information.

Business Insider said on Monday that it was not surprising that the retail dealer was branching into independent fuel stations.
This is because “gas is a large company for Costco”, where sales rose to about $ 30 billion, according to its annual report, BI said.
No hot dogs
The news of the new site was celebrated by some Costco members on Reddit, with one pleading, “Please open more and include the dining hall so I can get a hot dog during gas.”
The Costco Hot Dog is an essential element in the menu – the HOT DOG and Soda meal has remained at the same price of $ 1.50 since 1984.
One of the Vigo residents said in one mission “a great location” that would enhance the capacity.
They added, “Every Costco I see with a fuel station that creates traffic problems in the surrounding area because they have no room for its customers.
“The fortieth pump station on this site has the ability to keep the lines shorter.”
EV delegation
Revelation comes in the midst of Donald Trump to delegate electric vehicles in California.
The California base has set standards that require 22 % of the new vehicles sold in the state, “Zero Emotion” in the 2025 model.

California governor Gavin New Roosom has sparked Trump's move, saying: “Trump's comprehensive attack on California continues.
“This time it destroys our clean air and the global competitiveness of America in this process.”
