Selectmen Preview: Warrant Article Order, Dog Control Board Appointment and More

The Wayland Board of Selectmen is scheduled to meet at 7 p.m. tonight.

The preview below was provided by Town Administrator Fred Turkington.

The Board of Selectmen will meet on Monday, Feb. 11, 2013 in Wayland Town Building. After Chairman John Bladon reviews the meeting agenda for the viewing public and makes any announcements, selectmen will receive public comment.

At 7:15 p.m., the board will listen to a presentation by Nancy Bryant from SuAsCo, a community-based alliance working toward the sustainable environmental and economic well-being of the Sudbury-Assabet-Concord River Watershed, regarding stormwater management services it provides to member communities.

Next, selectmen will interview several citizens who responded to the appeal for volunteers to serve on the Dog Control Appeals Board to fill the vacancy for the alternate position following the death of Daniel Brown.

Following the interview, selectmen will order articles for the 2013 Annual Town Meeting Warrant. Up to 30 articles are eligible for inclusion in the Warrant, including six petitioners articles that will be inserted by state law.

At approximately 8:15 p.m., the Board will hear a presentation by the Finance Committee regarding its recommendations for funding the proposed Department of Public Works maintenance, repair and administrative facility to be built on Town-owned land between River Road and Boston Post Road (Route 20) behind the transfer station, former landfill and sand/salt storage facility. Selectmen will consider the information and make a decision on Feb. 25 on a potential debt exclusion ballot question to be voted at the April 2 town election.

Selectmen will consider the consent calendar and review correspondence, listen to the report of the town administrator and offer general items of concern. Selectmen will discuss scheduling office hours for late February or early March and consider appointments to town boards and committees.

The meeting begins at 7 p.m. in the Selectmen's Meeting Room.
