Notice Registry

Pursuant to Public Act 06-80, the Town of Westport offers a "Notice Registry" on which landowners, electors, and non profit organizers may place their name to receive advance notice of public hearings held before the Westport Planning and Zoning Commission on matters involving proposed changes the Commission initiates to amend the town's zoning regulations, zoning map, subdivision regulations, or Town Plan of Conservation and Development. Names and addresses will remain on the registry for a period of three years, after which residents can renew their name on the registry for successive three-year periods. Any land owner, elector, or non-profit organization wishing to place their name on such registry must submit in writing their name and mailing address, or e-mail address if they want to receive notices via email, to:
