The Village of Danville, Ohio
CHERRY ALLEY FOLLOW UP
At the recent council meeting, public discussion was held on the proposed ordinance of declaring Cherry Alley to become a one-way alley eastbound from Mickley Street to South Market Street. The proposed ordinance had been tabled by council at the Sept. 8th meeting to allow for more public input. Valuable information was received from the area residents, and we thank you for that. The proposed ordinance will remain tabled to allow area residents additional opportunities to attend future council meetings, so more valuable information may be gathered before a final decision is made. Residents are also encouraged to attend council meetings anytime, to share your thoughts and concerns on helping your community to continue being a great community to live in.
PUBLIC INFORMATION
We are aware that there have been some Village residents having issues with weekly trash pick-up collection. The Village does not provide weekly trash collection and cannot resolve your issue. Residential collection is the resident's responsibility to arrange and maintain. Residents should call your own collection provider and request your issue be resolved.

“The Gateway to Amish Country”
The Village of Danville is known as “The Gateway to Amish Country”. We are the trailhead/terminus for both the Kokosing Gap Trail and the Mohican Valley Trail that extends to the Bridge of Dreams in Brinkhaven. Small stores to shop and places to eat are plentiful in the community and we offer many activities for visitors to our Village.
Located on SR 62
Located on U.S. 62, 15 miles northeast of Mount Vernon, Danville is a thriving community of 1,100 residents with homegrown pride and down-home values. Home of the second oldest Catholic parish in Ohio, St. Luke Catholic Church, Danville’s roots run deep. The original Danville was laid out by George Sapp, Sr. and Robert Waddell in 1813 and was named for Daniel Sapp, a soldier in the War of 1812. Danville later merged with 2 smaller Villages, Rosstown (Rossville) and Buckeye City, to create the Village seen today.
While in Danville
