Good Morning, Cleveland! It’s Thursday, June 18, and here is what you need to know.
New flood basin completed in Parma
A new stormwater basin in Parma is bringing relief to residents who have dealt with years of flooding and expensive property damage. The Northeast Ohio Regional Sewer District completed the new Baldwin Creek Dell Haven Basin, a $6 million project located behind Holy Family Parish. The basin can hold nearly seven million gallons of runoff water during heavy rain. Officials say the project will stop water from flooding streets and basements near York and Pleasant Valley roads. The basin will remain dry and serve as green space most of the time. The city and sewer district already purchased more than a dozen flood-prone homes to make room for the project. They are now looking at buying more properties along West Pleasant Valley Road.
‘Finally relief.’
