The following was submitted by the Board of Assessors:
Dear Wayland Property Owner(s):
The Board of Assessors has completed a review of property valuations for Fiscal Year 2017. The proposed assessed values have been posted to the Town of Wayland’s website on the Assessor’s section or can be found at http://gis.vgsi.com/WaylandMA/. In addition, a copy of the town residential assessments is available at the Town Library and in the Town Building.
In accordance with state law, this is an estimation of the fair market value of a property as of January 1, 2016 (adjusted for ongoing construction to June 30, 2016 if applicable to your home). The basis of the assessments are actual sales in town from January 1 to December 31, 2015. During this period, the selling prices of homes in Wayland continued to increase.
If you have questions regarding your proposed assessment please call (508)358-3788 or stop by the Assessors’ Office at the town building during the office hours of Monday, 8:00AM to 7:00 PM, Tuesday – Thursday, 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM and Friday 8:00 AM to 12:30 PM to schedule an appointment.
The public review period will be from September 26th through September 30th, 2016. After September 26th, 2016, the public review period will end and the Board of Assessors will request Certification of the Assessments from the Department of Revenue for Fiscal Year 2017.
Respectfully,
Wayland Board of Assessors
