Westville council has given direction to town staff to make adjustments to land-use bylaws in town that would more easily allow the building of so-called “tiny homes”, modular homes, and “pocket neighborhoods”.

Council noted that between the serious need for more homes, and the number of smaller plots of land in town, there needs to be a “made-in-Westville” solution to encourage more construction. Staff is expected to submit a first draft of amendments for council to review in early 2026.
