Click here to view the Copper Ridge Development Area Master PlanThe City of Whitehorse is focused on making sure all residents have access to a safe place to call home. To meet this demand, the City is looking at a number of ways it can increase the amount of housing in ourcommunity.

The City launched a public engagement to plan for potential development on City and Government of Yukon land between Copper Ridge Place and Falcon Drive. This engagement provided an opportunity to give input on what the community wanted to see in such a development, and how the City could best meet those needs. It included discussions with the planning team, surveys, an open house, and the creation of a land use concept.

The Copper Ridge Development Area Master Plan was approved by Council on April 22, 2024. The Plan sets out a vision, guiding principles and associated policies to guide decisions on land use and development in the Plan area, to create a quality residential development that meets the needs of current and future residents while also preserving and enhancing natural areas to protect neighbourhood amenities.
