Petition addressed to: Houston City Council

The City SHOULD NOT spend $30 million of our storm‑water funds. 

Reason

Yes, we all want to see that Old Kmart building demolished. But NOT at the expense of our community’s safety and our tax dollars.

The City SHOULD NOT spend $30 million of our storm‑water funds. 

These funds come from our pockets and are urgently needed in our neighborhoods that have endured 50+ years of flooding. Storm water dollars are meant to protect families, homes, and streets not to bail out a private property owner.

HOLD THE OWNER ACCOUNTABLE!!!!!

The demolition is his responsibility, not the taxpayers’.

If the City pays for it, the owner walks away smiling like: “I GOT THEM!” 💸
