Wayland Town Crier 9/2/10: Wayland and Sudbury move forward on sharing transfer stations. Wayland has given its approval, and now Sudbury selectmen next Tuesday will decide whether to launch a pilot program for the two towns to share transfer stations.

Wayland Town Crier 2/18/10: Challenges of consolidating transfer stations in Wayland and Sudbury. Not everyone is pleased with the idea of consolidating transfer stations in Sudbury and Wayland. Among those with concerns is Peter Harvell, a member of the Solid Waste Management Option Committee, which had been considering solid waste disposal options for Sudbury. "We never heard the town mention the transfer consolidation when we studied options for solid waste disposal," said Harvell. "All of sudden there comes this regionalization thing that was never brought to the attention of the committee." Harvell questions if money can be saved with consolidation. Last week, Sudbury selectmen announced they are examining the feasibility of consolidating the Sudbury station with Wayland. One idea is to have the two stations share services. The stations are currently open in both towns on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. The new schedule may have Sudbury open on Tuesday and Wayland open on Thursday, with the stations in both towns opened Saturday, said Board of Selectmen Chairman Bill Keller.

Wayland Town Crier 2/9/10: Sudbury and Wayland may decide to share transfer station. The town of Sudbury plans to raise the cost to use the transfer station from $125 to $155, and implement a $25 recycle-only sticker fee in July. In addition, the town is working on details to determine if consolidating its transfer station with Wayland is feasible.
