Wayland Town Crier 2/2/10: Board of Selectmen stand firm on traffic mitigation for Town Center. The Board of Selectmen dug in its heels on Monday night, refusing to amend traffic mitigation measures in its Development Agreement for the proposed Town Center project, thus continuing a stalemate with the Historic District Commission (HDC) which decreed that no road work take place in the Historic District until the project is substantially under way. Twenty Wayland is in litigation with the HDC over the conditions issued in its decision. "In view of the clear recommendations of our traffic consultant, it would be quite imprudent for the board to fly in the face of that and amend the agreement," said Selectmen Michael Tichnor. The selectmen’s decision was in response to a letter from Twenty Wayland on Jan. 20, in which the developer requested the four parties who previously issued or were party to agreements relative to traffic improvements required for the development to amend their agreements as outlined in the HDC’s certificate of hardship.
