An Act authorizing the town of Wayland Select Board to grant permission to use land for green burials

This bill requires the Town of Wayland Select Board to grant permission before any land can be used for green burials, except for family-owned private plots. Before approval is given, the Board of Health must first review and approve the specific location after holding a public hearing. The law ensures that green burial sites are officially authorized by local officials rather than being used without oversight.
