The Westport Planning Board approved a minor modification to a previously endorsed site plan for 493 American Legion Highway (case 26‑4586 SPA minor mod), allowing the approved garage to be enlarged by approximately 450 square feet.

Staff noted the previously approved garage footprint was 35 by 50 feet and the new dimensions would be 40 by 55 feet; staff confirmed setbacks and parking requirements continue to be met and recommended approval with two prior conditions retained (all proposed lighting shall be downcast and any further site plan changes require a hearing). "The modification does not alter site circulation, drainage or zoning compliance," a board member said when moving the approval. The motion passed by voice vote.
