Wayland Town Crier 2/9/10: Split decision to grant new liquor license. In a split decision on Monday night, the Board of Selectmen voted to grant a beer and wine license to Wayland Variety and Deli, located at 70 Boston Post Road. Resident Pankaj Patel, principal shareholder of the corporation and manager of the store, appeared before the board with his attorney Tim Collins. The debate centered around the proximity of Wayland Variety and Deli to Post Road Liquors, at 44 Boston Post Road, as well as the fact that the store is frequented by local teenagers. There was also concern that, although the town currently has several licenses available, they should be saved for potential use at restaurants and package stores in the proposed Town Center. Joe Nolan, Steven Correia and Michael Tichnor voted to grant the license. Tom Fay and Susan Pope opposed it.
