Westport Health Care Center is planning upgrades to its building to address changes in the long-term health care field, and the Zoning Board of Appeals is the first stop for those changes.
The ZBA recently held a hearing that will continue on May 8 for changes to the 120-bed facility at 1 Burr Road opposite Kings Highway Elementary School. If variances are approved, the plans will move on to the Planning and Zoning Commission.
“The framework of today’s long-term care environment is comprised of advanced rehabilitation techniques and accompanying equipment in addition to evolved systems of caring for and making comfortable prototypical age-related illness and disease,” said a document from the center filed in the Planning and Zoning Department.
“In conjunction with these advances in treatment and therapies is both a federal and state focus to make the long-term care setting less institutional and more of a friendly residential environment.”

The Westport Planning and Zoning Commission closed its public hearing tonight on an application to change its affordable housing regulations after it heard concerns from some residents.
The commission is considering a proposal from Woodland Group, and the zone would be applied to a property in the Indian Hill and Bradley Lane area. No decision was scheduled to be made tonight on the application.
Under the changes, 20 percent of the units would have to be for those who make 80 percent of the state median income, and 10 percent would have to be those who earn 80 percent of the local median income.
The state median income is $81,000 for a family of four, and 80 percent of it would be $64,800. The median income of Westport is almost $159,000, and 80 percent of it would be about $127,000.

The Westport Planning and Zoning Commission expressed concerns that it hasn’t discussed an overall vision for the update to the Town Plan of Conservation and Development and discussed formatting issues during a discussion on the first draft of the plan.
The commission held its first discussion on the draft, which has yet to be released to the public, during its meeting Monday night. Glenn Chalder, Planimetrics principal who is working on the plan with the commission, said he was seeking feedback from the commission.
“It’s a lump of clay right now and it needs to take shape,” he said.
The commission expressed concerns about formatting and linking the new plan to the 1997 Town Plan of Conservation and Development.
