Who maintains the streets in Danville?This map displays streets within the city corporate limit, and city-owned streets extending past the limit. Most of the streets within the city limit are owned and maintained by the City. But there are a few that are owned by the State of Illinois, or privately owned by various agencies or neighborhoods.The Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) is responsible for IL Route 1, US Route 136 and 150, and Interstate 74. Along these routes the City provides only pothole filling assistance, and is not responsible for their upkeep or reconstruction.Private streets are maintained by many types of agencies, none of which receive assistance from the City. These agencies acquire their own funding and resources for street repairs.City street repairs and rehabilitation are funded from several sources. One of the primary funding sources is Motor Fuel Tax (MFT). MFT is a tax on the privilege of operating motor vehicles upon public highways and operating recreational watercraft upon the waters of Illinois. The tax is based on the consumption (purchase) of motor fuel. MFT funds can be used to construct and maintain roads, traffic controls, street lighting, storm sewers, sidewalks and other pedestrian paths, off-street parking facilities and much more.These funds ensure that municipalities are able to provide for the public health, safety and welfare of their community through a stable infrastructure.

More information about this seam.This datafile shows a highly generalized depth to the top of the Danville (No. 7) coal in Illinois. These 100-foot contours were created by Earthvision software using more than 9,500 data from drill holes. Because the depth of the coal was contoured directly from drill hole data (as opposed to creating a map of coal elevation and subtracting it from a map of surface topography) the resulting map is essentially based on the assumption that the land surface is a level plain. Consequently, the accuracy of the map is lowest where the coal is shallowest. Data control was very poor in north-central Illinois and the Eagle Valley area in southeastern Illinois. Because a revised crop of the Danville Coal was not available, this file was originally constructed using the crop of the Herrin Coal. This data set is intended for use at a scale of 1:750,000. This data set was created as part of the ISGS GIS database to show general depth of the Danville (No. 7) Coal seam. The data are appropriate for regional analysis.These data are appropriate for use in local and regional thematic analysis. The data are not appropriate as a geodetic, legal or engineering base. The data set was not and is not intended as a substitute for surveyed locations, such as can be determined by a registered Public Land Surveyor. Although useful in a GIS as a reference base layer for maps, the data set has no legal basis in the definition of boundaries or property lines.
