Blame County for Limberlost Flood
Property owners along Oracle and Limberlost roads held Pima County responsible for flood damage from Thursday rains. They cited a county drainage ditch that ends abruptly near Limberlost, with calls to the board of supervisors and engineers ignored until after court action was threatened. Damage centered on Frank Thoms’s 556 West Limberlost property, where house flooding, soil loss, and poultry losses occurred. Neighbors cited unsafe ditch ends, blocked drainage, and calls for repairs or redirection to irrigation ditches or nearby Billito drainage.
