Flooding,Parma

Reporter at News 5 Cleveland

PARMA HEIGHTS, Ohio — For rainy days like Wednesday, Parma Heights has found a solution to help homeowners deal with flooding in their basements with the help of a six-acre retention basin.

Now, it’s here after months of renovations, thanks to funds through the American Rescue Plan and Sewer District.There’s the old saying, when it rains, it pours, which Bodenschatz said he knows all too well after he experienced flooding in his basement nearly four years ago.While the incident happened just once, Bodenschatz said it caused a lot of damage.

“We’ll see what happens. I went to the meetings on it, so I understood what they were doing,” said Bodenschatz. This effort is part of a master plan by the Northeast Ohio Regional Sewer District to hold up to 11 million gallons of stormwater and divert 250 acres of upstream drainage. “We can proudly say that since the basin was dug out last year and completed at the end of last year, that flooding has been reduced,” said Gallo.
