The Resort Municipality of Whistler's goal is to work with community stakeholders to achieve appropriate and affordable housing for the resort's workforce
The community is invited to view the progress on the master planning process for the RMOW-owned lands in the Cheakamus Crossing neighbourhood (Phase 2), including the addition of employee-restricted housing.
The Cheakamus Crossing Phase 2 plans are one of several initiatives from the Mayor's Taskforce on Resident Housing underway to increase Whistler's employee housing inventory. Explore the other taskforce initiatives below.
An update to the Employee Housing Service Charge Bylaw is underway to ensure commercial, industrial and tourist accommodation developments are contributing towards new employee housing.
RMOW plans to expand Cheakamus Crossing to build more resident-restricted housing for the permanent resident workforce. In addition, Whistler Housing Authority continues to work on other housing projects.
Allow the private development of resident restricted rentals on underdeveloped private lands.
A new and expanded infill program is being considered to permit the addition of a new resident restricted dwelling to existing residential properties.
Further refine resident restricted eligibility and enforcement to protect housing for Whistler's workforce.
The Task Force has been engaged in an extensive process convening six meetings over the past year, in addition to a number of sub-committee working groups. Whistler's Housing Context Infographic on a page.
