According to deCourcy, everyone involved with the project has taken pains to lessen its impact. The layout of the campground - which is in the north-east quadrant of the park - was re-designed in order to get it as far away from the creek valley as possible, said deCourcy. Additional funding was secured for tree planting too. "We made a commitment not to damage the area," said deCourcy, who explained that more trees will be on site after construction than before.

FEES remains an oasis of sorts in the middle of the GTA with easy access to interested campers. As an urban park, it will be ideal for introducing novice campers to the outdoors. The campground - one component of the Bronte Creek Management Plan - was originally slated to be built in several phases for a total of 400 sites. This scheme has been downsized and, according to deCourcy, the initial 140 campsites may be all there is. Four hundred sites would simply be "too much," he said.
