Danville’s Public Services Committee has approved a proposal to purchase seven properties for more than 254 thousand dollars. The properties are in the 300 block of Harmon and the 400 block of Robinson. City Engineer Sam Cole says the property is being purchased for upcoming community development
The committee also approved spending more than 400 thousand dollars for a new sewer vacuum truck. It will be used for sewer cleaning and maintenance. The committee also approved paying more than 100 thousand dollars to line a sanitary sewer in South Danville. A sewer collapse showed the sewer line is in poor condition. The city plans to hire a company to line the sewer from 4th to 1st streets to stabilize it.
All of the committee’s actions will come to the full city council in February.
