[ARCHIVED] Creek Maintenance Map and Storm Updates

We have received many questions from residents about maintenance responsibilities for creeks within and near the Town of Danville. Working with the Contra Costa County Public Works Department, we’ve developed a guideline map to show the local creek system and maintenance responsibility. The County has developed a website to guide homeowners on maintaining private creeks: contracosta.ca.gov/5754.

We also recommend checking the Covenants, Codes, and Restrictions (CC&Rs) for your homeowners association for information about creek maintenance on your property. This map is a general guideline for illustrative purposes. Please check with your HOA to confirm creek maintenance responsibilities for your home. Click here to view and download the map.

ADDITIONAL UPDATES

Work has completed along Front Street to repair erosion along the creek (pictured). Front Street is now open in both directions.
The recent storm has caused additional potholes on Town maintained roads. We are working to get contractors out for work as soon as there is a break in the weather.
The National Weather Service Flood Watch and Wind Advisory remain in effect through tomorrow at 4 p.m. Heavy rain and wind gusts are expected overnight, so avoid travel if possible. Continue to monitor weather at www.weather.gov/mtr
The Town sandbag station at 1000 Sherburne Hills Road is open 24/7, with replenished supplies.
