ST. CLAIR SHORES How much water a property retains and how much runs off into the storm sewers could be calculated for each parcel in St. Clair Shores, under a new proposal put forward to pay for the infrastructure that prevents flooding in the city.
“Every day it rains, the city of St. Clair Shores has a robust infrastructure to maintain and really stop flooding. You have a lot of mechanical means to keep basements dry, (keep) streets from flooding,” said James Burton, a vice president at Hubbell, Roth and Clark, the city’s engineering firm.

ST. CLAIR SHORES, Mich (WXYZ)- â For the last year, Lakeshore Senior Living in St Clair Shores has felt closed off from the world.
Not just for residents, but for her families too.
âThat was a real big blow when I got the email and they said sorry, weâre done, â said Sherri Rudolph, whose mom is a resident.
That email came on March 11, 2020. It shut down visitation, which had been closed ever since. Her motherâs senior home a mile down the road suddenly felt an ocean away.
