Westport P&Z To Review Roseville Road Sewer Extension, Dog Play Area Proposal

WESTPORT, CT — The Planning and Zoning Commission will hold a public meeting on Aug. 17 to consider a proposed sewer extension on Roseville Road and a zoning text amendment concerning recreational dog play areas.

The remote meeting will begin at 6 p.m., Planning and Zoning Deputy Director Amanda Trianovich announced. The agenda will be posted here when available.

The commission will review Municipal Improvement Application PZ-26-00485 for 112 and 114 Roseville Road. David Ginter of Redniss & Mead submitted the request on behalf of the first selectman under Connecticut General Statutes Section 8-24.

The application calls for installing a private sanitary sewer main extension beginning at an existing sewer manhole at Whitney Street and Roseville Road. The sewer would extend about 74 feet north along Roseville Road to the midpoint of a proposed private road called Coastal Ridge.

The proposal also calls for sewer service laterals to each of three proposed lots associated with Resubdivision Application PZ-26-00304.

Commission members will also consider Text Amendment 874, Application PZ-26-00386, submitted by Andrew Colabella. The amendment would modify Section 40 of the town's zoning regulations, covering the Dedicated and Open Space and Recreation District, to allow a fenced recreational dog play area in Dedicated and Open Space and Recreation District No. 1 with special permit approval.

The Aug. 17 meeting will be held remotely via Zoom and livestreamed on the town's website. It will also be accessible on Optimum Government Access Channel 79.

Written comments may be emailed to PandZ@westportct.gov. Comments received by noon on the day of the meeting will be distributed to Planning and Zoning Commission members for consideration. Comments received after noon will be added to the record but will not be distributed until the next business day.

Meeting materials are available on the Planning and Zoning Department section of the town website under "P&Z Pending Applications & Recent Approvals."
