Good morning, Westport.

More than 3,000 Westport residents joined the third annual Soundview Summer Stroll along the Compo Beach exit road today, enjoying music, face painting, and treats from local vendors.

Local sponsors (06880, the Compo Beach Improvement Association, and the Hirani family) partnered with the Parks and Recreation Department to support the lively event.

Gas prices in Connecticut have risen to $4.18 per gallon, up 15 cents this past week as summer travel pushes costs higher, so Westport drivers may need to check local apps for cheaper fuel options.

Tonight, the Westport Planning and Zoning Commission will review a pre-application to transform 1431 Post Road East into a two-story indoor sports facility for youth and adults—along with another to convert 34 Imperial Avenue into two residential buildings with nine units near downtown.

Nine eateries in Westport were cited for serious health violations in June 2026 — including cafeterias at an elementary and a middle school — and health officials plan to schedule follow-up inspections.
