Copper Canyon is a town in Denton County, Texas, United States. Copper Canyon was founded in April of 1973. Residents decided to incorporate the town in an effort to preserve the rural atmosphere of the community. The first mayor was Robert Woodin. Council meetings were held in homes until 1978, when several residents built the current town hall at 400 Woodland Drive. The developer of the Woodlands Addition donated the land. As of 2005, the town population was 1,300. The town's area is 4.25 square miles.
Copper Canyon is adjacent to the master-planned Lantana residential development, which is currently not incorporated. The population of Lantana was 3,800 as of March 2006.
History
The first white settlement in the area that would become Copper Canyon occurred in the 1840s. One of the more prominent settler families was that of Elisha and Mary Chinn, who came to Texas from their original home in North Carolina in 1852. They helped establish the first church in the area, a log-cabin chapel which eventually became known as the Chinn's Chapel Methodist Church. The building is still standing on what is now known as Chinn Chapel Road.
