That's good to see. I'm somewhat surprised they wouldn't go a bit larger, given that a big portion of the costs is in the shared support services anyway. But even 10 additional hospice beds for the region is still good to see.

Isn't five acres a huge site for a facility of this size?

Depends what sort of outpatient and family programs they plan to offer. Hospices can also offer bereavement counselling, music therapy, and guidance in how to live on your own after the loss of a partner. Hospice Windsor is about that size.

What will the hospice have to say about the soccer and baseball games and attendees onsite until 11pm during summer?

I should think that they are fully aware of how the neighbouring sites are being used now.

The city changed the layout of Waterloo Park's festival areas because Luther Village moved in and complained, so I have to ask.

I would expect that given that the average hospice stay is 10 days, that there won't be much time for a resident to be upset by the noise.
