Whitby Proposes 660-Unit Housing Plan at Ritson School Site
The Ritson School Project in Whitby is set for redevelopment, featuring 660 new housing units as part of a phased plan. According to project details released by town authorities, at least 30 percent of these units will be designated for affordable housing.
The planned development will involve releasing around 500 units in four blocks. This will be managed through a Request for Proposals (RFP) and handled under a long-term lease model. The town is engaging potential stakeholders and developers to finalize these arrangements.
This initiative aligns with Whitby's urban planning efforts to address housing needs by providing a mix of affordable and market-rate homes. Local authorities have outlined this goal in response to increasing demand for diverse housing options.
Further updates about the sequence of development stages and details regarding the RFP process will be announced by the town as planning advances.
