Wayland Board of Health voted 4-0 at its Sept. 22 meeting to reject the Boston Post Road request, leaving in place a 2024 permit for one goose and two ducks granted by variance on a lot under one acre in size.
Health Director Julia Junghanns said she did not see “the three geese being a solution that’s going to work,” and noted the town’s regulation allows six chickens, not six fowl. Chair Robert Defrancesco told applicants the complaining neighbor had been unhappy “for months and months and months.” The board separately voted unanimously to extend a lead-remediation deadline at 69 Old Connecticut Path to Nov. 1 after attorney Anthony Coletti laid out an Oct. 5 work start, and declined to declare Route 20 vehicle noise a public health nuisance. Member Brett Mordas was absent.
