BATESVILLE – If you are new to town and wish to start a conversation with a local, we suggest starting with either the weather or Wal-Mart.
In December, speculation arose regarding the box store potentially opening a store on property near the high school on State Road 46.
We have been following the rumored project and wanted to relay information to you. So far, the company has not decided to purchase or build a facility in Batesville.
Property owners say they have not heard whether the company will move forward with the project.
Earlier this year an online petition opposed to the store locating in Batesville received 750 signatures.
