Houston city officials are proposing an $86 million underground stormwater detention basin behind Memorial Middle School in Spring Branch, Texas. Some parents and residents are raising safety concerns about the project. The basin would be built underground beneath a grassy area behind the school, with two storm sewers and an underground structure. The City of Houston, Harris County Flood Control, Precinct 3, and federal grant money would be used for the project, which would require Spring Branch ISD to give up some of its land. Construction will begin next winter and last two to three years. Some concerns have been raised about the potential long-term implications of the project and the involvement of various government entities involved.
