Walmart has bought 22 acres in Palm Bay's planned Emerald Lakes community, according to a Florida Today headline. (Florida Today's story is behind a paywall, so we could not read the full report.)

A Brevard County deed recorded Oct. 19 shows a Walmart entity bought the land for about $10.08 million, according to Reach Commercial Real Estate's Space Coast CRE report, which cites county and city records.

City of Palm Bay records list a site plan under review (case SP26-00012) for a 187,798-square-foot Walmart with a gas station, according to the same report.
