Clarification on tax abatement item - Waylandpost

In the story headlined “Property tax abatement forms due by Feb. 3” that appeared in In the Jan. 23 edition of the Wayland Post, the deadline date may have been unclear.
The information was taken from the Assessor’s Office page on the Wayland Town website. It states that applications for abatement were due by the close of business on Feb. 1, unless that day occurred on a weekend. Then it was due, according to the website, “no later than Feb. 3.” There was no mention that it was due on the next business day if Feb. 1 was on a weekend and instead due “no later than Feb. 3.”
The Wayland Post is sorry for any confusion this may have caused.
