Wayland School & Community Hub - September 23, 2026

The Town of Wayland is hosting a public meeting to help shape our Hazard Mitigation Plan - a critical document that identifies natural hazard risks facing the community and outlines strategies to reduce damage to people, property, infrastructure, and the environment.

Community input is essential to ensuring the plan reflects local priorities and strengthens Wayland's long-term resilience. Community members are encouraged to participate to share their experiences, identify local hazard concerns and provide input.

~  Date: Wednesday, September 23, 2026

~  Time: 10:30 AM - 11:30 AM

~  Location: Wayland Community Ctr., 8 Andrew Avenue and ZOOM

~  Zoom Access: Meeting link will be made available on September 23 on the Town's website at https://www.wayland.maus/1097/Public-Body-Meeting-Information-Remote-1

Participants will discuss risks such as flooding, severe storms, high winds, and other natural hazards, and help guide the Town's future mitigation efforts.

Join the Energy & Climate Committee and friends from Energize Wayland on September 23, 2026 for a casual, no-pressure night of free pizza and honest answers about understanding your energy bills, exploring heat pumps to get AC and lower winter heating costs.

Join neighbors and local experts to chat over a slice of pizza about insulation, heat pumps, solar, EV chargers and what makes sense for your home. Home heating and cooling account for about half of a typical household's energy use, so even small upgrades can make a real dent in your bills and your carbon footprint. Register to reserve your slice.
