Like many other local communities, Westport has seen growth in recent years. Not to the same extent as communities like Carleton Place or Beckwith, but a new housing development has brought new people and ideas to the town.
Mayor Robin Jones tells us the newcomers are helping out too, pointing to a recent effort to build a community garden.
Jones says another obvious benefit to the community growth is it provides a boost to the local economy.
Jones added that anyone is welcome to make the picturesque village their home.
