Wayland Patch 1/4/21: In MA, Masking Policies Differ Greatly By Community. On Monday night, the Wayland Board of Health approved a new mask advisory covering public spaces in town. At the same meeting, the board voted against enforcing a mask mandate. Cities and towns across Massachusetts have already or will soon make similar decisions. Mask policies differ greatly from community to community, from clear mandates to more fungible advisories.
