COMMENTS
CITY MANAGER COMMENTS
City Manager Arndt shared that the Rotary Fitness Park will be opening this week. The employee
sponsorship program that helps integrate new employees into the City's workforce is up and running.
The Planning Department is updating their internal records and filing system in order to be more
business friendly. The TIPS 411 is now up and running and the City will be using the software to
notify the public of escapes in the community. An internal working committee has been formed to
improve the workflow process for inspections and permitting. Department directors are working on
budget issues related to the pension problem and will be bringing recommendations to the City
Manager in December. The Property Valuation Administration made a statewide software change that
did not format correctly with the City's system, but the problem has been successfully resolved thanks
to the hard work of the Finance Department.
October 23, 2018
The City Manager has been in discussions with the Housing Authority regarding moving Section 8
Housing from the City of Paducah to the Housing Authority. He is hopeful that there will be an
agreement to bring forward to the Commission at a November Commission Meeting.
The City Manager and Assistant City Manager Smolen are working with PED to create business
retention visits as part of the Strategic Plan. The City Manager is working with the Assistant City
Manager Smolen and Public Information Officer Spencer to create the City of Paducah's
organizational values and mission statement.
BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS COMMENTS
Commissioner Holland informed the Commission that the reason there is a dip in the amount of
boaters that visit the Transient Boat Dock in June and July is because insurance companies will not
insure boaters below a certain latitude during certain times of the year due to the threat of hurricanes.
PUBLIC COMMENTS
Patti Jones made comments about drainage in and around the Sandpiper Circle area.
Michael Swinford made comments about Veterans.
