The following was submitted by the town of Wayland:

The Finance Committee will hold its Annual Town Meeting Warrant Article Hearing on Monday, Jan. 26, at 7:15 p.m. in the Wayland Town Building.

This hearing is held to facilitate public discussion and understanding of the articles submitted for Annual Town Meeting to be held on Monday, April 6, at 7:30 p.m. at the Wayland High School Field House. This hearing is held in conformance with Wayland’s Bylaws, and the public is encouraged to attend.

For non-standard articles, the Finance Committee requires at least one member of each sponsoring board or a petitioner to attend the hearing to present a brief synopsis of the article and be available for questions from the Finance Committee and the public.

The Article Hearing allows each article sponsor to summarize the purpose for the article and respond to brief questions from the Finance Committee and the public. The Article Hearing is not the place to debate the merits of the articles.

Articles will be discussed in the order submitted unless other arrangements are made with the Finance Director. The Finance Committee or the Board of Selectmen will present the standard articles.
