The Budget is a management tool, which each City Department uses to plan, administer,
and improve its operations and customer services.
The Budget is an instrument for implementing the goals that the Commission sets for the
City.
The Budget is a decision making aid designed to help the Commission make difficult
public policy choices.

2. OVERVIEW OF CITY FINANCES
A. FUNDS
In compliance with professional accounting standards, the City of Paducah operates its
finances through 23 different funds. Revenues and expenditures are budgeted in each of
these funds. The Flow of Funds Chart on the page after this section shows the City's funds
and diagrams their interrelations. Finances for most of Paducah's service delivery activities
are managed through just a few of the funds in this confusing array:
General Fund:
All City Departments that do not operate with an earmarked source of revenue are
budgeted in the General Fund. Among others the Police, Fire, and Public Works
Departments are operated through the General Fund.
Municipal Aid Program (MAP):
State law requires us to account for state shared gas tax money in a separate fund. We
add a transfer from the general fund to the MAP fund and account for the City's annual
paving program through it.
Grant Funds:
Special Revenue Funds are used to account for grants awarded to the City from agencies
of the Federal Government and the Commonwealth of Kentucky. We have several
individual funds for large grants and a small grant fund to serve as a "catch-all" for all
other grants.
Solid Waste Fund:
The City operates its garbage collection service as a business and accounts for its
operations using accounting rules, which are modeled on business accounting instead of
governmental fund accounting. The Solid Waste Fund receives the revenue from the
garbage service fees. The fund contains the budgets for our residential and commercial
collection services and our compost operation.
Internal Service Funds:
Internal Service Funds also follow business accounting rules. The budget includes the
Fleet Maintenance, Fleet Lease Trust, General Insurance, Health Insurance, Rental
Properties, and Radio Depreciation internal service funds.
Bond Funds:
With the sale of $5 million in General Obligation Bonds in June 2004 for the construction
of the Infinity building project in the Industrial Park West the City set up a separate
capital improvements fund. This fund accounts for bond proceeds and the costs
associated with the construction of bond -funded facilities. In June 2003 we borrowed
$3.5 million through the Kentucky League of Cities bond pool to fund street and parking
improvements around the Four Rivers Center, Park system improvements, and heat and
air system repair. Debt associated with bond -funded projects is handled through the Debt
Service Fund.
Debt Service Fund:
The Debt Service Fund is used to account for the accumulation of resources for and the
payments of principal, interest and related cost of debt or bond issues.

B. HOW BIG IS THE BUDGET?
The multitude of funds makes it hard to answer the simple questions: `.`How big is the City
Budget? Just adding the budgets of all the funds together does not answer the question accurately
because transfers of monies between funds cause the same dollar to be counted two or more
times. The following table adds the budgets of all our funds and then makes adjustments for the
transfers to subtract out the double counts. Counting net expenditures in all funds, the FY2005
Budget totals $35,728,680.

C. EXPLANATION OF FUND BALANCES
The multitude of funds can make it difficult to understand what financial resources the City has
and what flexibility we have in using those resources. Although any balance remaining in some
funds at the end of the fiscal year is closed out (transferred) to the General Fund, other funds
maintain a fund balance. Enterprise funds, like our Solid Waste Fund, do not have a fund
balance because of their business -style accounting rules. They do have unencumbered liquid
assets, which are an equivalent of a governmental accounting fund's fund balance.
The following table shows the fund balance (or equivalent) that we expected to have June 30,
2004 in each significant fund and explains why the money is retained in that fund's account.

D. GENERAL FUND
1. Why is the General Fund .Budget so "tight"?
a) Because we were "In the Red" last year
The first reason that the general fund budget is tight this year is that it was "in the red"
last year. The FY2004 budget adopted by the Commission had $500,000 more
expenditures than revenue.
We covered the shortfall with an appropriation of $500,000 from fund balance. In accord
with Commission policy, we still retained an operating reserve equal to 12-1/2% of the
General Fund balance after the $500,000 appropriation.
The "one time" money from fund balance was used to pay "one time" capital and
economic development expenditures. For example, we made the following capital
expenditures last year out of the $500,000 and the $1.2 million we added to it after we
closed the FY2003 books:
Lowertown Infrastructure Local Match
$94,000
Ulrich Economic Development Incentive
$30,000
Coca-Cola Economic Development Incentive
$147,000
Buckner/Pecan Lane ROW & Bridge Projects
$376,000
Pump Truck Replacement
$98,000
East Mall Access Settlement Payment
$154,000
Innovative Center Office
$5,000
Dennis Wholley Enterprises to Market Paducah Nationally
$30,000
Lowertown Project — property acquisitions
$150,000
Main Street Program Supplemental Appropriation
$45,000
Paducah Symphony
$15,000
Floodwall Pump Emergency Repair
$68,000
Streetsca e — Electric Services Relocated
$37,000
Railroad Museum Door & Roof
$30,000
Heritage Place 7`h Street Expansion
$77,000
Infinity Media Economic Development Incentive
$295,000
AAA Fabricators Economic Development Incentive $75,000
Total $1,726,000
b) Because some revenue was taken from us and some costs we do not control increased.
The following examples have a combined impact of over $674,000 on the City's FY 2005
budget.
• Base Court Revenue Cut
$99,000.
Kentucky municipalities used to have City Courts. The Cities collected Court fines and
fees and used them to pay for the City Court and to pay part of the costs of City Police
Departments. When the State Legislature did away with City Courts and replaced them
with State Courts, they promised to hold the Cities harmless and return part of the money
collected by the State Courts back to the Cities. Since the amount each City got was
based on what their City Court was generating before the change, this money was called
"Base Court Revenue."
Since the time our City Court was abolished Paducah has received $168,752/year Base
Court Revenue. In 2003, the legislature did away with Base Court Revenue. They took
half our annual allocation in 2003 and the balance the next year. In 2004, the legislature
authorized a new surcharge for cities on local traffic tickets, which will produce an
estimated $70,000/year so that our net loss is $99,000/year.
• Increased CERS Charge
$405,000
The downturn in the stock market has reduced the assets of the Kentucky State
Retirement System. To keep the system actuarially sound, the State has increased the
State Retirement percentage we have to send them for each dollar we pay our employees.
For FY2005 this increase will total $405,000.
• Old Police & Fire pension unfunded. liability payment
The same stock market impact that caused the State to increase our CERS payments has
impacted our old Police and Fire Pension Fund. The fund will have an unfunded liability
of about $5.9 million as of June 30 2004. Our actuaries have set up a 28 -year plan for us
to reduce the unfunded liability to $0 by 2032. In FY2004, we transferred $518,000 to
the Pension Fund to decrease the unfunded liability. To keep on our schedule, our
actuaries told us in FY2005 we needed to make a $429,000 payment, but later revised
their estimate to $518,000 due to an unanticipated drop in Pension Fund asset values in
the second calendar quarter.
X1X
• Increased cost for old Police & Fire Pension COLA $143,000.
Each year the Police and Fire Pension Board votes to have the City provide a COLA
(Cost of Living Adjustment) to all retirees and dependents in the plan. To keep the
COLA from increasing the Plan's unfunded liability, we have to appropriate enough
funds to amortize the cost of each year's COLA through the remaining life of every
employee and dependent in the plan. In FY2004, we appropriated $293,000 anticipating
a 3.0% COLA. Our actuaries tell us that to amortize an anticipated 3.27% COLA we will
have to increase our transfer to the Pension Fund in FY2005 by $143,000 to $436,000.
• Increased Health Insurance Contribution
$27,000.
The City allocates $7,038 for each employee's health insurance costs. Employees who do
not insure their families can apply the excess funds to a flexible spending account. We
have offered in our collective bargaining negotiations to increase the $7,038/employee
allocation in January by an amount equal to the increase in the CPI. We estimate that the
cost of this increase of a half year will be $27,000.
2. Expenditure Decisions
During their budget workshop the Commission approved the following expenditures as par of
the FY2005 budget:
a) Reduce Graduated Wage time from 4 to 2 years $25,000
The City's "Graduated Wage" system started all employees represented by the AFSCME
bargaining unit at 80% of the established wage for their job when they are hired. Each the
end of their first year they go to 85%, at the end of their second year they go to 90% and after
four full years on the job they are paid the 100% wage. The new AFSCME contract reduced
the four-year time frame to two years with raises every 6 months. As part of the transition
from a 4 -year system to a 2 -year system, all current employees who have been here less than
4 years get a raise.
b) Retirement Payout Reserve
$97,000
The Fire Department has three retirements scheduled early next year and Inspections has one.
The retiring employees have significant vacation and sick leave reserves for which they will
receive "mustering out" pay. The Fire payments will cost $80,000 and the Inspections
Department payment will be about $17,000. Since we do not anticipate any significant salary
xx
slippage in either Department next year, the FY2005 budget includes funds for the payouts in
the budgets of the two Departments.
c) Commission Contingency
$300,000
The FY 2005 Budget Ordinance provides that: "Funds designated as Commission
contingency shall be obligated only upon approval by the City Commission by municipal
order."
d) Administrative Contingency
$50,000
The FY 2005 Budget Ordinance provides that: "Funds designated as Administrative
contingency shall be obligated at the discretion of the City Manager, however, the
Commission shall be notified seven working days prior to approval of expenditure. If any
individual member of the Board of Commissioners requests Commission review of a
proposed expenditure, the City Manager must bring the expenditure before the commission
for approval by municipal order."
e) PATS Funding Increase
$25,000
The services our Community receives from PATS continue to grow. Last year PATS
passenger count increased from 234,277 to 244,399 passengers. Their Dial -a -Ride program
has improved the quality and reduced the cost of taxi service for our citizens and visitors.
The total PATS budget is $5,141,584. To take full advantage of available Federal funding
PATS must have local match funds. For the last two years the City has contributed $175,000
to PATS. The FY2005 budget increases the contribution by $25,000 to $200,000.
f) City/County Comprehensive Plan $100,000
Talbert & Associates prepared the last complete rework of the City's Comprehensive Plan in
1988. Staff and the Planning Commission have updated the Plan every five years but it needs
to be completely redone. The City and the County are attempting to work together to fund a
new plan for a City -County wide Comprehensive plan. The County has $50,000 budgeted.
xxi
g) Downtown Economic Analysis, Marketing, and Hotel Plan $35,000
As a prelude to the Comprehensive Plan, staff recommends we hire a consultant to prepare a
Downtown Marketing study. The study will provide an economic analysis of our downtown
as it operates now and propose a marketing strategy to build on our current successes
h) Artist Relocation Program Marketing & Incentives $58,000
Our Artist Relocation Program has helped put Paducah on the map nationally. We are
recognized across the country for this creative use of the Arts as an economic engine of
change to recreate and revitalize neighborhoods. The FY2005 budget provides $43,000 for
marketing and $15,000 for incentives.
i) GPEDC Funding
$250,000
Our funding last year for GPEDC was $200,000. With the success GPEDC has enjoyed
under Wayne Sterling's leadership has come additional expense. Total GPEDC budget is
$1.2 million. Purchase Partnership is planning a new private sector fund raising campaign
this coming year.
j) Phase II Public Works Lot Improvements $45,000
The Public Works Complex currently has a gravel surface on most of the traveled areas
between our buildings and the open sheds. The constant travel in the complex creates a lot of
dust, which accumulates in our building and on our neighbor's property. This paving and
drainage project will reduce the amount of dust produced.
The proposal is to use concrete to surface the gravel areas of the lot. Public Works staff will
do most of the work in-house. In addition to $45,000 in the General Fund, there is $20,000
budgeted in the Solid Waste fund to give a total of $65,000 for the project. Preliminary site
preparations were completed in FY2004. We plan to concrete half of the lot in FY2005 for
$65,000 and half of the lot in FY2006 for another $65,000.
k) Cable Franchise Negotiations Consultant $50,000
The City Cable ordinance earmarks 2 percentage points of the 5% Cable TV Franchise Fee to
the Cable Authority. This formula should generate $112,990 next year. Their budget
allocates $60,000 to the Community College for televising City meetings and community
service programming. The remaining $50,000 is earmarked for consultant fees to help with
our franchise renewal negotiations. Our franchise with Comcast expires in January 2006.
XXii
1) Storm water Phase II Project
$11,000
The City is under an EPA mandate to prepare and implement a storm water management
plan. The City Engineer and Public Works Director have been working on this project in
their spare time. Request funds will be used to employ an Engineering Intern to plot storm
water outfalls into our GIS system.
m) Inspections Tablet PCs
The Inspection Department has ordered one tablet PC to test how it can be of benefit in
streamlining field inspection reports. If the test shows a significant time savings and
improvement in inspector efficiency, we will order 4 Tablet PCs for staff members who work
in the field. We will also try a laser tape tool that should save quite a bit of time when an
inspector is calculating occupant load or number of required exits for an existing building.
n) Neighborhood Development: Property Repair and Purchase $200,000
Based on our Lower town success, the Planning Department is appropriated additional funds
to complete the Lower town area and to begin the revitalization of the next neighborhood.
o) Fire Department Minimum Manning $44,300
Chief Benton and his staff have calculated that if they had an additional $44,300 to use to pay
overtime to Firefighters who were called in to cover when men are absent for training, sick
leave, or vacation, they would be able to keep 20 Firefighters on duty 365 days a year.
3. Revenue
Most of our revenue growth comes from the group of revenue sources we call `Licenses and
Permits', particularly the payroll tax which is included in that group. Total General Fund
revenues are expected to remain relatively flat. In FY 2003 we completed implementation of
the Commission's four-year program to abolish the City inventory tax. Inventory tax
revenues were $457,000 in FY1999 and will remain at $0 next year.

4. Expenditures
Although the City has done a good job of limiting growth in its general fund operating budget,
part of the growth in operating costs that we have experienced has been paid by reducing our
annual investments in capital improvements.

Fund balance figures are very difficult to estimate before all revenues are received, all
expenditures are posted, and the City's books are closed for the year. The $4.5 million figure in
the table is the estimate Jon Perkins and his staff prepared for our work on the operating budget.

Based on this estimate, our fund balance for the end of this fiscal year will be 17.5% of FY2004
expenditures. The City has met its policy of maintaining a 12.5% ($3.2 million) fund balance.
Based on this projection, the FY2005 Budget includes an appropriation of $1.1 million from fund
balance for capital and other "one time" expenditures.
F. MULTI YEAR PROJECTION
The spreadsheet on the following page summarizes the operation of the General Fund for the last
5 years and projects revenue and expenditures in the General Fund until the year 2008. The
primary driver of the revenue growth shown on the spreadsheet is based on the assumption that
our payroll and business license tax receipts will grow at an average rate of 3.3% a year.
Base budget personnel costs are assumed to grow at 5.5%, while operating costs for General
Fund Departments are assumed to grow at a slower rate.
If our estimates are accurate, future revenues will not cover future costs and the City will have to
raise taxes or cut operating expenditures. The numbers on the chart for FY2004 are budgeted,
not actual numbers. Total expenditures for FY2004 will likely be less than the $26.9 million
shown on the chart.

G. MUNICIPAL AID PROGRAM (MAP) FUND
REVENUE
Paducah's allocation of State gas tax funds has historically averaged in the range of $400,000 -
$425,000 a year, but appears to be declining. We anticipate only $383,000 in FY2005. The
City's Capital Improvement Program sets the goal of adding $750,000 ($500,000 asphalt,
$250,000 concrete) a year from the General Fund to give a total of $1 million to $1.25 million a
year total revenue for resurfacing. We've not met this goal over the past several years.
1. MAP FUND REVENUE
2. EXPENDITURES
The City maintains 211 miles of streets. Depending on traffic use patterns, an asphalt street will
last 10 to 12 years between resurfacings. An expenditure of $1 million a year for street
resurfacing will allow us to resurface every street in town once every 20 years. The Engineering
Department starts looking seriously at resurfacing streets when their ranking is given as a 5 on a
scale of 1 to 10, 10 being the best condition. Currently, the City streets ranking 5 and below is
estimated at $5 million to repair at today's construction cost.
All revenue to the MAP fund is spent on street maintenance in the year it is received or the
following year. In addition to resurfacing expenditures, the CIP sets a goal of spending $250,000
a year on curb, gutter, and sidewalk repairs. Much of this expenditure flows through the MAP
fund.
The FY2005 Budget includes no appropriation for Street Resurfacing.

I. SOLID WASTE FUND
I. REVENUE
Until 1993, the City's solid waste collection service required an annual subsidy of $210,000 to
$422,000 a year from the General Fund. Since that date, revenue from service fees has covered
the full cost of the service. We instituted our first fee increase since 1992 in 2003 to pass
through a mandate from the legislature to pay a $1.75/ton tipping fee to the State.

Disposal costs are paid to CWI, which operates a Transfer Station. Disposal of our waste is in
privately owned sanitary landfills in either Tennessee or Illinois.

Under our contract with CWI, our disposal costs were held constant from 1995 to 1999. The
contract allowed CWI to increase its tipping fee charges as shown in the following table:

We can expect their charges to increase up to 3% in July 2004. Our contract with CWI expired
in 2004. Under our contract, we have the option of two 5 -year renewals. Bob Freudenthal and
County Administrator Steve Doolittle have negotiated an extension of our contract, which is
before the Commission for approval.
J. FLEET FUNDS
The City uses it Fleet Funds to charge itself for services it provides to its own departments. The
Fleet Maintenance division provides services to the General Fund and Solid Waste fleet. Until
FY1999, the Fleet Fund operated as a single fund, but beginning with the FY2000 budget, it was
separated into two funds.
The Fleet Maintenance Fund tracks the operation of our maintenance garage. Each department
has funds budgeted for the repair and maintenance of equipment and vehicles, as well as fuel.
When a tire is changed on a police car, a charge is paid from the Police Department to the
garage's fleet fund. Total expenditures in the fleet maintenance fund next year are expected to be
$488,000.
The second fund is our Fleet Lease Trust Fund. We use this fund to build up monies to replace
trucks and cars owned by the General Fund. When a new vehicle is purchased, a lease amount is
calculated by dividing the cost of the vehicle by its expected life. Each year the Department
using the vehicle pays the lease amount into the Fleet Lease Trust Fund. When the vehicle is
ready to be auctioned, the funds accumulated from the lease payments and the interest they earn
will provide the money to buy a replacement vehicle. We started putting money into this vehicle
replacement system in FY1999. At July 2004, we will have a balance of approximately $1.6
million in the fund.
Two major changes are proposed for the Fleet Fund this year:
• We will be making our first expenditures from the lease payments into the funds. Eleven
Police Patrol cars costing an estimated $253,000 will be purchased with Lease Trust Fund
monies to replace 11 old cars that have been fully amortized by lease payments over the
last 5 years.
• We will start making lease payments to fund the replacement of our fleet of fire trucks.
Last year we made our last payment on the loan that funded the purchase the City's fire
trucks. We, until last year, we had been paying $162,000/year on the loan. By paying
$170,000 into the Fleet Trust Fund this year and increasing that payment to $200,000/year
over the next few years, we will accumulate enough funds to implement a replacement
schedule that will replace all 7 of our fire trucks by 2017.
The following tables display the historic evolution and projected change in our Fleet Trust Fund.

K. DEBT SERVICE FUND
The $1,284,260 appropriated in the Debt Service Fund will cover principal and interest payments
on the following financial obligations:
2004 INFINITI MEDIA BONDS
In the spring of 2004, the Commission approved an economic development incentive to bring the
Infiniti Media manufacturing plant to Paducah. The City and County are building a 100,000
square foot manufacturing building in Industrial Park West to Infiniti Media's specification. The
City sold taxable general obligation bonds to pay for the project. We will lease the building to
the Industrial Development Authority and the Authority will lease the building to Infinity Media.
For the first three years the City and County will split paying the lease on the building. After the
first three years the company will pay the lease. The lease payments will equal the principal and
interest payments on the bonds. The City's portion of the first year principal and interest
payment will be about $216,500 (total debt service payment $433,000).
2004 COUNTY NOTE
In the spring of 2004 the City signed an interlocal agreement with McCracken County promising
to pay half the cost of a 5 -year, $500,000 KACo (Kentucky Association of Counties) Note.

2004 COUNTY NOTE
In the spring of 2004 the City signed an interlocal agreement with McCracken County promising
to pay half the cost of a 5 -year, $500,000 KACo (Kentucky Association of Counties) Note.
McCracken County will borrow the money. $240,000 will be used to construct a rail siding in
Industrial Park West adjacent to the Infiniti Media Building. $260,000 will be used to option
and/or purchase additional property for industrial park and economic development purposes.
The City's share of the note will be about $54,000/year.
2003 CAPITAL PROJECT BOND
In May 2003, the City Commission approved a bond issue for $3.5 million to finance the
following capital projects:
Four Rivers Center for Performing Arts utility relocation, streetscape
improvements and parking lot construction
$1,500,000
Park Improvements: Blackburn, Kolb, Noble Parks and Perkins Creek
Nature Preserve
$1,000,000
Police building HVAC & related construction
$650,000
City Hall HVAC, controls stem, ductwork and structural improvements
$350,000
CONVENTION CENTER/FOUR RIVERS CENTER BONDS — BOND SERIES 2001
In June of 2001 the City issued approximately $9.29 million in general obligation bonds to
provide $6 million for construction of the 50,000 square foot additions to the Convention Center
and $3 million for construction of the Four Rivers Performing Arts Center. Our next payment on
the bonds will be December 1, 2004, and our following payment will be in June 2005. Total
principal and interest payment for the year will be approximately $644,100.
While the City issued these bonds, 50 percent of the principal amount of the bonds was issued on
behalf of the County of McCracken. In accordance with an interlocal cooperative agreement
between the City, County and the Tourist and Convention Bureau, principal and interest
payments on the bond are being made from an additional 2% transient room tax collected by the
County.
Principal & Interest Payment: +/- $644,000
Revenue from 2% of Hotel/Motel Bed Tax +/- $449,000
City Contribution +/- $65,000
County Contribution +/- $65,000
Visitor's Bureau Contribution +/- $65,000
TOTAL +/- $644,000
The City General Fund includes a $65,000 transfer out to the Bond fund. The Bond Fund
anticipates the revenue from the Bed Tax, County, and Visitor's Bureau.
3. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
All of the City's Department Heads have cooperated with this year's budget process and have
supported the preparation of this document. Although I have participated in the departmental
interviews and the final assembly process, almost all of the planning, decision making and work
involved in preparing the FY2005 Budget was done by Finance Director Jonathan Perkins with
the able assistance of Judy Nelson, Sam Lady, LeAnne Jameson, Natalie Massa, Angela
Copeland and Cathy Graham. I sincerely appreciate their excellent work and ask you to join me
in commending them.

operating expenses. The Debt Service Fund's designated fund balance shall be sufficient to fully fund all outstanding debt
including principal and interest.
B. The City Manager is authorized to transfer budgeted amounts between departmental budget line items and
between divisions of departments; however, any transfers of funds, appropriated in Section 2, between departments must be
approved by City Commission.
C. Funds designated as Commission contingency shall be obligated only upon approval by the City Commission by
municipal order.
D. Funds designated as Administrative contingency shall be obligated at the discretion of the City Manager,

Board of Commissioners requests Commission review of a proposed expenditure, the City Manager must bring expenditure
before the Commission for approval by municipal order.

monthly credit will be adjusted by an amount equal to the increase in the CPI (USDOL Bureau of Labor Statistics Consumer
Price Index - All urban consumers) during a 12 month period ending October 2004 for the months of January - June 2005,
SECTION 5. Finance Director is responsible for maintaining current table of Estimated Revenues in Section 1 and
Appropriation of Funds in Section 2 and to provide a copy to the City Clerk.

appropriations, the Finance Director will update these Tables and provide a copy to the City Clerk.
