Good morning, Westport. Here's your local news at a glance for Friday, the 19th of September.

GOVERNMENT NEWS

  • The Westport Parks & Rec Commission decided to focus on what the new maintenance facility must include instead of choosing a location. A consultant will return next month with location ideas and cost details are still pending—marking a step forward in replacing the old shed.  Westport Journal
  • Westport P&Z Chair Paul Lebowitz said he was upset about an unauthorized excavation and fill on a Partrick Road property—completed before proper approval was obtained for building a new home. The commissioners closed the hearing without a vote while town officials planned to inspect the property—ensuring the steep grade changes meet town standards.  Westport Journal

SPORTS NEWS

  • Sports columnist Mike Anthony criticized NBA commissioner Adam Silver for claiming Hartford never applied for an expansion and said moving the Connecticut Sun from Uncasville to Hartford makes little sense. He noted offers from Hartford and Boston add value to the team & local leaders have voiced concern as the franchise’s future remains unclear.  CTPost
