Orange County records show an entity related to Orlando-based Cadence Partners LLC paid $47 million for the 104-acre parcel on June 16 for the land to Kelly Park VB Development LLC, a subsidiary of Vero Beach-based Evans Properties, which is the master developer of the 250-acre Wyld Oaks mixed-use project in Apopka’s Kelly Park area.

However, Joseph Beninati, the development coordinator for Evans Properties, told Orlando Business Journal that 16 acres of the 104-acre parcel will be retained by the master developer once the plat is subdivided — meaning Cadence Partners’ actual acquisition is 88 acres.
