The City’s new Strategic Priorities are:

• Supporting growth and sustainability;
• Investing in infrastructure;
• Good government, including strong communication with community and fiscal responsibility;
• Service and organizational excellence;
• Quality of life, well-being, and connection; and
• Community safety and resilience.

The Strategic Priorities reflect a number of governance values, including respect, accountability, transparency and thoughtfulness, and were adopted by City Council on June 9, 2025.

Quote:

“Whitehorse is one of the fastest growing cities in Canada, and we need to support growth and sustainability by finding a balance between economic progress and community safety and well-being. Municipal government has the most direct impact on citizens, and these strategic priorities will ensure that Whitehorse has a positive impact on its citizens in the years ahead. City Council will also respond to the emerging needs of our city and update its priorities as necessary going forward.”
