Thomas Meixner Memorial ALERT Station at Holy Hope Cemetery

Tom Meixner’s memorial ALERT Station at Holy Hope Cemetery, 3555 N Oracle Road, next to the Chapel, sponsored by the Pima County Regional Flood Control District.

The Pima County Regional Flood Control District has completed the installation of its newest rain gauge at Holy Hope Cemetery in dedication to the late Tom Meixner. The rain gauge will provide advance flood warning for the Flowing Wells area as well as assist in rainfall data collection for County projects within the City of Tucson. This was done in coordination with the Meixner family as a way of honoring Tom’s legacy of community involvement and hydrology research. The Meixner family wishes to express their gratitude to the District for making this memorial possible.

The rain gauge is operational and viewable on the ALERT site: PCRFCD ALERT Google Data Display Map (pima.gov)

Our thanks go out to our colleagues at Pima County Regional Flood Control District.
