DISCUSSION Public Information Officer Pam Spencer provided the following summary on the overview of Paducah Opportunity Zones: Planning Director Tammara Tracy presented an overview of Paducah's two Opportunity Zones and highlighted the Prospectus of Projects booklet. Tracy says, "There's an opportunity to make a significant amount of money as well as help the community. We want the community and people outside the community to invest in us. " Opportunity Zones are economic development tools promoting investment in distressed communities through legislation enacted by the Federal Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017. New investments in an Opportunity Zone area may be eligible for preferential tax treatment such as capital gains tax advantages. Paducah has two Opportunity Zone designations, which were selected by the State, located in the northern and downtown areas in Paducah. There are 8700 zones across the United States. To help our two zones stand out to potential investors, the City has developed a booklet providing an overview of our community and featuring six transformative projects including the Columbia Theatre and the Northside Neighborhood.
