Wayland Town Crier 11/3/11: An idea for Wayland's 'diamond in the rough'. The Wayland Economic Development Committee (EDC) was established in 2010 to support, promote, encourage and advocate for the town’s commercial tax base, to strengthen the local economy, and diversify and expand the tax base in a manner consistent with the character of our community. EDC is presenting the following idea to a joint meeting of the Board of Public Works and Board of Selectmen on Monday, Nov. 7 at 7 p.m. The Wayland Economic Development Committee (EDC)was asked to review potential uses for Wayland-owned land along Route 20, between the Transfer Station access road, up to and potentially including the land under the decommissioned Septage Facility. Today, it consists of dirt piles, chain-link fences, empty brick bunker-type buildings and interim school bus parking. Not exactly the highest and best use for the town of Wayland.
