Site Plans
Document your property correctly.
A site plan is essential for almost every exterior project. We draft clear, scaled site plans showing property boundaries, building footprints, setbacks, lot coverage, access routes, and proposed changes.
Our plans are tailored to City of Whitehorse requirements to help streamline the permit approval process. They also help contractors plan for drainage, grading, and construction logistics.
Common Questions
What does a site plan show?
Property boundaries, building footprints, setbacks from the property lines, lot coverage, access routes, and any proposed changes, drawn to scale.
Why do I need a site plan?
Almost every exterior project needs one. In Whitehorse, development permit applications include a site plan showing the footprints of all buildings and their setback distances from the property lines. It’s how the City checks your project against the Zoning Bylaw’s rules on setbacks, height, and site coverage.
What should I send you?
Tell us about the project through the quote form. If you have a survey or lot plan for your property, send it along, because it helps us place everything accurately.
Can a site plan help my contractor?
Yes. Contractors use site plans to plan for drainage, grading, and construction logistics, as well as to see where the new work sits on the property.
Permit requirements can change. Confirm current requirements with the City of Whitehorse (or the Government of Yukon outside city limits) before you build.
