Houston's Adopt-A-Drain Program Faces Controversy Over Inappropriate Naming Suggestions
EntSun News/10972239
HOUSTON - EntSun -- Houston's Adopt-A-Drain program, which encourages residents to adopt a storm drain and commit to cleaning it four times a year, has recently been met with controversy due to inappropriate naming suggestions from users. Some participants have used the nickname field to give the drains explicit names and make political statements, prompting the city to consider implementing a naming approval process to prevent this behavior in the future. Despite the abuse, many users have also given the drains funny and pun-filled nicknames.
The Adopt-A-Drain program is a crucial initiative in preventing flooding in Houston. By keeping the drains clean, residents can help mitigate the risk of water damage to their neighborhoods.
