Ft. DuPont campground?
March 24th, 2021
The other day, while hanging out over pizza, REAL pizza, at the DNREC park where we used to run the doggies…
MOV00166 – At Delaware City Park
MOV00165 – At Delaware City Park
MOV00164 – At Delaware City Park
MOV00163 – At Delaware City Park
MOV00162 – At Delaware City Park – check Ken running!
MOV00161 – At Delaware City Park – Look at them go!
And now they want to wreck this park with an RV parking lot.
I realized yesterday that I’d not posted about this dreadful idea:
Here’s the powerpoint with the “preliminary plan” from August, 2019. There’s no final plan in the Delaware City Council’s Agenda or Minutes.

Given the water table, I cannot imagine what they intend to do with the sewage from that many sites.
Despite that approval, I don’t see any sign of construction starting. There were dump trucks up and down the road, but they went to the C&D canal and then headed east!

Thanks for the update on this. It does seem like overkill. And what about these “cottages?”

You will find a lot of information about the Fort DuPont Campground on this website. The Executive Director is being forced out and we continue to fight this awful development.
