PARKS WATER FEATURES

For the benefit of our younger (and young at heart) residents, Danville’s Maintenance Services Department maintains water features at four of our parks: Oak Hill Park, Diablo Vista Park, Sycamore Valley Park and Hap Magee Ranch Park. These fountains, sprays and other features are typically in operation from April 1 through September 30 each year and run weekdays from Noon to 6:00 p.m. and weekends from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.

The water features are turned off when weather conditions aren’t favorable for this type of Park use and/or for scheduled maintenance and unforeseen repairs.

The water features all run on timers, so as to conserve water as well as prevent a buildup of water at the sites.  The two at Oak Hill and Diablo Vista Parks operate for approximately 45 minute cycles and then have a rest period of approximately 15 minutes. The water features at Sycamore Valley and Hap Magee Ranch parks work off of a switch that needs to be activated by the user during the hours of operation. The switch, known as a bollard, can be found within the water feature and have signage instructing residents in their use. These more modern systems use a computer chip which cycles the water feature though a series of events for approximately 12-15 minutes and then goes into an approximate 5 minute rest period before they can be restarted.

For more information on the park water features, contact Maintenance Services at 314-3450 during normal hours of operation Monday through Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m

Residents Urged to keep landscape waste in Green Bins

The Town of Danville's Maintenance Services is asking residents to make sure that when they rake up their leaves and other yard waste that they make their way into the green bins, rather than being pushed out into the street for the Town to take care of.   Having the debris in the roadway can cause a number of different problems. Some of those include:

        *        Clogging/Damage to storm drains
        *        Traffic hazard
        *        Debris piles attract rodents
        *        Increased costs for dumping

When the yard waste is picked up by the street sweepers it can no longer be considered green waste. Instead it has to be brought back to the maintenance yard where it remains until picked up at an additional cost to the Town. 

For more information, contact Maintenance Services Department at 314-3450 or maintenance@danville.ca.gov. 

The Town of Danville maintains a Lost and Found Department for items left at the Town-owned facilities.

If your item was lost at the Community Center please call (925) 314-3400

If your item was lost in one of our Parks or other facilities please call (925) 314-3450.

Items left over 90 days will be donated.

In wet weather sand bags available at Town Service Center

The Winter and Spring seasons in Danville are known to be very wet.  During heavy storm systems, the Town has seen some areas of flooding. In order to combat these events, residents have an opportunity to pick up free sandbags. During the wet season, maintenance officials set up a pile of bulk sand at the Town Service Center, 1000 Sherburne Hills Rd. Bags are made available at the site and individuals may fill up to 20 bags for flood control.

Persons who have questions about sandbags, or wish to report street-side flooding or tree limbs down during storm situations, contact Danville Maintenance Services at 314-3450. In reporting downed limbs or flooding, please be prepared to give an address or cross street for the issue being reported.

Street Sweeping

The Town of Danville's street sweeping program is funded by your local Stormwater Pollution Control Program to comply with the Federal Clean Water Act. Street sweeping removes pollutants before they drain into storm drains, ditches and creeks which eventually flow into San Francisco Bay. Please use these guidelines to help us untreated keep your environment clean:

• Park your cars off the street on scheduled sweeping day. Sweeping around parked cars requires more time and is a dangerous maneuver resulting in a large portion of the street that will not be swept.
• Keep landscape plants pruned back far enough to allow sweepers to sweep against curb.
• Keep tree branches pruned to a height of 14' above street to allow passage of sweeper.
• Sweepers are not equipped to pick up large piles of leaves left in the street.
• Streets that are privately maintained will not be swept by the Town.
  

Curb markers have been placed at each storm drain to remind us that only stormwater should enter our street storm drains. If you see someone dumping into a storm drain record as much information about the incident as possible and the parties involved and call 1-800-NODUMPING (1-800-663-8674). If you have unwanted household hazardous wasters, you can dispose of them for free, by calling 1-800-646-1431.
