POSTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF M.G.L. CHAPTER 30A SECTION 20 AS AMENDED.

The Sustainability Advisory Committee advises the Board of Selectmen, municipal departments and committees, and residents on strategies for advancing our local commitment to sound environmental practices both today and for our town’s future. These include education initiatives, environmentally sensitive building and planning, renewable energy choices by residential, commercial and municipal properties, and other practices that help Dedham address the impact of pollution and climate change.

Due to the ongoing COVID-19 Pandemic and State of Emergency, on March 12, 2020, Governor Baker issued an Executive Order Temporarily Suspending Certain Provisions of the Open Meeting Law, G.L. c. 30A sec. 20. Pursuant to the Order, public bodies are temporarily relieved from the Open Meeting Law’s requirement that meetings be held in public places, open and physically accessible to the public, so long as measures are taken to ensure public access to the bodies' deliberations "through adequate, alternative means."
