New no-swimming signs will also be installed, and meetings will be held to discuss what more can be done.
The body of Przemek Kozlowski, from Bradford, was pulled from the River Trent on Bank Holiday Monday.
Life buoys – designed to be thrown to a person in the water – were missing from near where he drowned.
The city council is responsible for 26 life buoys along the river, and said that before the death, had checked them weekly - but sometimes they are stolen, vandalised or thrown away.

He added: "Guidelines must not be set in stone; we must always learn and improve."

Local Democracy ReporterThe water from flooded coal mines beneath Nottingham could be used as a clean renewable energy source.
Nottingham City Council is considering pumping warm water up from the mines which have flooded up to the surface to heat our homes.
Because the mines are closer to our planet's core, the water down there is warmer than water up here.
Once used it would then be sent back underground to heat up again.
Media caption, Homes in Wales will be heated in a similar way
The council has approved the first stage of testing, at the cost of £125,000.
Most of this money is coming from the EU and the rest from central government.
Wayne Bexton, council head of energy projects, told BBC Radio Nottingham: "We want to try it with 60 [houses] and then ramp it up. It is reinventing an old legacy item."
It has estimated this next step, installing it at those 60 houses, would cost about £1.5m.
It is believed it would be the first in England, but a similar scheme in Wales is also about to start bringing hot water to about 1,000 homes.

BBC NewsA Nottinghamshire woman had an unexpected delivery when she caught a driver defecating outside her house.
Nadine, from Gedling, said she heard a noise down the side of her house one afternoon last week and saw the man relieving himself.
"He had his pants down and was rubbing his bum on my fence post," she told BBC Radio Nottingham.
"So perhaps the culprit can be found with splinters in his bum."
Image source, PA MediaThe bizarre incident left her "shocked" and speechless as the man ran off pulling up his trousers and drove off in his van.
"It was quite a big turd," she added.
"I saw the funny side of it, but you can't do that. You don't poo in somebody's alleyway."
Nadine believed the man worked for delivery firm, DHL, because of the red and yellow T-shirt he was wearing and asked them to apologise.
A spokeswoman for the firm said: "Based on the information provided, we are yet to ascertain if the individual in question is a DHL employee.
"However, we are investigating this as a matter of priority as this is clearly unacceptable."
Government policy unchanged despite badger reprievepublished at 11:37 British Summer Time 10 September 2019
Press AssociationA proposed badger cull in Derbyshire was suspended because of "specific local circumstances", not a change in government policy, the Environment Secretary has said.
Last week, Theresa Villiers told Natural England not to issue a licence for a cull of badgers in the county.
It had been proposed to prevent the spread of tuberculosis in cattle, but wildlife campaigners had raised concerns culling could be expanded into areas where the government has been funding vaccinations of the wild animals, which can transmit the disease to livestock.
Image source, Getty ImagesThe operation to vaccinate badgers in Derbyshire is the largest in the country and has so far cost £280,000.
Carrie Symonds, the prime minister's girlfriend, is reportedly "delighted" at the decision, external.
Ms Villiers said the cull had been suspended in Derbyshire to assess the impact of vaccination and culling already under way, but the government still believes culling is "necessary" to make the country TB-free.
