Palmer Lake trustees name new mayor amid controversy and discord over possible Buc-ee’s development

The vote happened without public comment, though plenty occurred at the end of the meeting.

Dennis Stern is the new mayor of Palmer Lake.

The appointment comes after the board formally accepted the resignation of Glant Havenar, who stepped down last week. For months, allegations have swirled around town of fraud, intimidation and collusion as the Board of Trustees decides whether or not to support the development of a new giant Buc-ee’s Travel Center atop Monument Hill along Interstate 25.
