Danville’s Public Works Committee has approved putting another 58 thousand dollars into a professional services agreement for bridge maintenance.  City engineer Sam Cole told the committee that the service is being done for ten city bridges.  The work will include a variety of maintenance issues.

He said federal requirements and other changes are what has caused the bill to go up.  The total project now will cost 620 thousand dollars.

The committee also approved an agreement with a firm to provide a study of compensation for city employees.  Comptroller Ashlyn Massey says the outside firm will give a complete look at Danville’s employment package.

The study will cost nearly 63 thousand dollars.

The committee also approved a plan to update the location of stop signs, yield signs and traffic lights throughout the city.  A major emphasis will be near schools.

All of the committees actions will be reviewed by the full city council next week.
