Honorable Mayor and Commissioners
City of Paducah
Paducah, Kentucky
We are pleased to submit Paducah's Comprehensive Annual Financial Report for the year ended June 30, 2006.
Responsibility for the accuracy of the presented data and the completeness and fairness of the presentation,
including all disclosures, rests with the City.
The major objective of this report is to describe the City’s financial condition and the financial results of its
operation in a format designed to be useful to the general public, elected officials, investors and creditors. We
believe the data, as presented, is accurate in all material aspects; that it is reported in a manner designed to
present fairly the financial position and results of operations of the various funds. All disclosures necessary to
enable the reader to gain maximum understanding of the City’s financial activities have been included.
This Comprehensive Annual Financial Report consists of four sections as follows:
Introductory Section - Contains a list of principal officials, an organizational chart for Paducah and this
transmittal letter from the Finance Director.
Financial Section - Includes the Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A), basic financial statements,
required supplementary information, and combining and individual fund statements and schedules, as well as
the independent auditor’s report on the basic financial statements. The MD&A is a narrative introduction,
overview and analysis to accompany the basic financial statements. This letter of transmittal should be read in
conjunction with the MD&A, which can be found immediately following the report of the independent
auditors.
Statistical Section - Includes a number of statistical tables that present various financial, economic, social and
demographic data about Paducah for the last ten years.
Single Audit Section - Includes required data in accordance with the Single Audit Act Amendments of 1996.
THE CITY
Paducah was established in 1827 by explorer General William Clark and was named after local legendary
Chickasaw Indian Chief “Paduke”. The City of Paducah is situated on the southern bank of the Ohio River in
the north central portion of McCracken County. Paducah is the largest city both in the county and in the
Jackson Purchase eight county region. The City has established itself as the cultural, economic, medical and
transportation center for not only the Jackson Purchase region but for a large portion of Southern Illinois and
portions of Western Tennessee and Southeastern Missouri.

Equal Opportunity Employer
Industry
The Paducah area has moved from the traditional “manufacturing industry” to a “service industry” economy.
Multi-state computer services, significant banking corporations, wholesale and retail trade, river-related
services, the health care industry and related services are the major employment centers. Traditional
manufacturing employment is heavily concentrated in the categories of chemicals, petroleum, coal and rubber,
and enriched uranium.
Economic Development Activities
The Greater Paducah Economic Development Council (GPEDC) coordinates the City’s efforts in
strengthening and building economic development activities. Representatives of financial institutions, utilities,
local government, education and the business community serve as the Board of Directors. In existence since
1987, GPEDC assumes and carries out the responsibility of working with existing industry and business, as
well as identifying and recruiting new companies to the City of Paducah. Additionally, GPEDC is responsible
for development of long-term strategy for economic development activities and coordinates local entities in the
accomplishment of those strategies.
In the early 1990s, the City of Paducah, the State of Kentucky and several federal agencies, in conjunction with
business, developed a 650-acre ‘Information Age’ Park. This park is designed to appeal to firms needing
advanced telecommunications and computing capabilities. The Info Park’s focal point was centered on the
Resource Center, which was designed to coordinate resources of government, business and education.
In 1997, the City of Paducah jointly with the County of McCracken acquired the ‘Industrial Park West of
Paducah and McCracken County’. This park contains 218 acres with immediate access to two major railroad
lines, Paducah and Louisville and Paducah and Illinois (formerly Illinois Central). The park is located within
the southwest quadrant of the I-24/Cairo Road interchange.
In FY2004, the Keiler family donated the Columbia and Arcade Theatre buildings valued at $740,000, and a
donation of infrastructure for Industrial Park West valued at $1.1 million was received, totaling $1.84 million.
Union Planters Bank donated its former main bank building, valued at $675,000, to the City, which was
converted into the City’s ‘Commerce Center’. The theater buildings are being marketed for resale to further
enhance the downtown area.
In FY2006, as the following table indicates, there were over 575 jobs created and retained, and $9.25 million
capital invested not to mention the added fiscal impact from the jobs created and capital invested.
Additionally, World Market, Bed Bath and Beyond and numerous other retail shops opened, creating several
dozen more service industry jobs, further strengthening Paducah’s retail market.

Churches And Schools
A relatively strong religious base is evident in the community, as demonstrated by the many churches in
Paducah. Numerous churches, representing many of the major denominations, are located within the City.
Several area churches offer televised activities as a convenience to those who do not attend church.
Elementary and secondary education in Paducah is provided by the Paducah Independent School System, the
McCracken County School System, Community Christian Academy, and by the St. Mary’s Parochial School
System. Higher education is available locally from West Kentucky Community and Technical College
(WKCTC), formerly known as Paducah Community College, a two-year institution affiliated with the
University of Kentucky’s community college system. WKCTC also serves as a site for the University of
Kentucky extended campus graduate programs, in addition to a four-year engineering college in conjunction
with the University of Kentucky.
Medical Facilities
Paducah serves as the regional medical center for much of the Jackson Purchase Area of Western Kentucky, a
large portion of Southern Illinois, and Northwestern Tennessee. Paducah’s medical industry has almost every
major medical specialty represented in the physician population. The medical industry, represented by
Lourdes Hospital and Western Baptist Hospital, provides over 640 beds for medical needs. The two largest
hospitals, together, employ approximately 2,900 persons.
Recreation And Culture
Citizens have available a wide range of recreational and cultural activities which cater to diverse tastes. Area
residents may choose from fishing on nearby Kentucky and Barkley Lakes to enjoying the performing arts.
City parks provide areas for baseball, softball, golf, football, tennis, disc golf, skate boarding, soccer and
picnicking. The Parks Services Department offers a substantial number of activities for people of all ages.
The ‘Dogwood Festival’, held in April, highlights the coming of spring in Paducah. Residents are encouraged
to spotlight their trees to illuminate a driving tour to celebrate an abundance of dogwood trees.
Paducah is the site of the American Quilter Society’s National Museum. The museum, dedicated in 1991, is
the centerpiece for the quilters’ annual convention held in April. The convention attracts an estimated 30,000
visitors to Paducah annually.
The ‘After Dinner Downtown Program’, which began in May 1997, started out as an experiment to draw
people to Paducah's downtown district. From May to September, businesses remain open late on Saturday
night, while street corner musicians of all types entertain.
The ‘Paducah Summer Festival’, started in 1967, is an annual celebration held during the last week in July.
Some of the Festival’s activities include skydiving, hot air balloon races, a variety of music concerts, and
usually concludes with a spectacular riverfront fireworks display.
One of Paducah’s oldest celebrations is the ‘8th of August Emancipation Celebration’, which features African
American family reunions, or a homecoming. It is a time for African Americans to pay tribute to their heritage
and roots, and a time of reconciliation.
The ‘Barbecue on the River’ event was started in 1995, as a way for local charities to raise funds. It attracts in
excess of 20,000 participants to Paducah’s riverfront during the last weekend in September. Over time, this
annual event has grown to incorporate other events, including ‘Arts in Action’, ‘LowerTown Fine Arts
Festival’, ‘Marine Industry Day’ and ‘Old Market Days’.
The ‘Festival of Lights’, started in 1992, is another annual event. This festival marks the beginning of the
winter holiday season, with the official lighting of the trees and buildings in downtown Paducah. The season
includes a ‘Holiday Parade’ and features a ‘Candle Light Christmas Trail’.
-3-
Paducah has an active symphony and several theater groups. The Paducah Symphony Orchestra stages
concerts during the winter season, with the Market House Theater presenting several productions during the
same time period. The Paducah Live Corporation annually schedules a series of concerts, which brings some
of the finest artists to the Paducah stage. In addition, West Kentucky Community and Technical College’s
‘Arts in Focus’ series sponsors a variety of professional productions.
The most recent addition to the City’s cultural lineup is the ‘Luther F. Carson Four Rivers Center for the
Performing Arts’. The Center opened in February 2004, as a regional, multiple-purpose facility, with a 1,800-
seat main hall designed to accommodate a wide variety of cultural and educational programs.
The McCracken County Public Library offers a large selection of literature, special collections and programs.
The West Kentucky Community and Technical College Library supplements this community resource. The
combined inventories of the two libraries yield nearly 121,000 titles, not counting numerous periodicals and
newspapers.
THE GOVERNMENT
Paducah operates under a City Manager form of government. The Paducah Board of Commissioners is made
up of a Mayor and four Commissioners elected at large by the citizens on a non-partisan basis. The Mayor is
elected for a four-year term and Commissioners for a two-year term. The Mayor and Commissioners have
equal voting powers.
The Board of Commissioners sets the policies that govern the City. It appoints advisory citizens groups that
help in the decision-making process. The City Manager is appointed by the Board and assists it in formulating
objectives, policies and programs. The City Manager is responsible for the day-to-day operation of the City’s
340 full-time employees as of June 30, 2006. Department managers are responsible for their respective
departments and report directly to the City Manager.
REPORTING ENTITY AND ITS SERVICES
For financial statement purposes, as required by generally accepted accounting principles, the City’s
Comprehensive Annual Financial Report includes all City of Paducah financial statements (primary
government) and its component units. The component units discussed below are included in the City’s
reporting entity because of the significance of their operational or financial relationships with the City of
Paducah.
The following component units have been presented as blended units because the units’ governing bodies are
substantially the same as the governing body of the City, or provide services almost entirely to the City of
Paducah: the Paducah Public Improvement Corporation, whose sole purpose is to finance long-term debt; and
Police and Firefighters’ Pension Fund, which was established for the benefit of police and firemen of the City.
The following component units have been presented as discrete units to emphasize that they are legally
separate from the City. Paducah Water Works, Paducah Power System, and Transit Authority of the City of
Paducah are all included in the City’s financial statements because of their financial relationship with the City.
The City provides a full range of municipal services, including police and fire protection; maintenance of
streets and infrastructure; sanitation services; storm sewer services; cultural events and recreation activities.
Accounting System
The City’s accounting system is organized on the basis of separate funds, each of which is considered to be a
separate accounting entity. The financial activities of each fund generate a separate set of self-balancing
accounts, which comprise its assets, liabilities, fund equity, revenues, and expenditures/expenses. Municipal
resources are allocated to and accounted for in individual funds based upon the purposes for which they are to
be spent and the means by which spending activities are controlled.
-4-
The City’s accounting records for the governmental funds and agency funds are maintained on a modified
accrual basis, with revenues being recorded when “measurable and available” and expenditures being recorded
when the services or goods are received and the liabilities are incurred. Accounting records for the City’s
proprietary funds and trust funds are maintained on the accrual basis, with revenues recognized when earned
and expenses recorded when the liability is incurred or economic asset used.
Internal Control
In developing and evaluating the City’s accounting system, consideration is given to the adequacy of internal
controls. Internal controls were designed for Paducah’s accounting system to reasonably safeguard its assets
against loss from unauthorized use or disposition, check the accuracy of accounting data, promote operational
efficiency and encourage adherence to prescribed managerial policies.
Budgetary Control
Paducah’s budget process provides for input from department managers, top management, elected officials and
the public to determine what programs and services will be provided for during the upcoming year. Budgetary
control is maintained at the departmental level by comparing budgeted expenditures with actual expenditures
on a periodic and year-to-date basis. An expenditure, which would result in an overrun of department
appropriation, cannot be made until additional funds are appropriated and a budget amendment is approved.
Purchase orders which result in an overrun of department appropriations cannot be honored until additional
appropriations are made available. Open encumbrances at fiscal year-end, if any, are reported as reservations
of fund balance. Unencumbered funds at year-end roll into the fund balance.
LONG-TERM FINANCIAL PLANNING
On October 1, 2005, the City’s payroll tax was increased ½ cent. As a result of the payroll tax increase, the
City Commission created the Investment Fund. The Investment Fund is funded with the ½ cent increase and is
dedicated to the following purposes: economic development, neighborhood redevelopment, infrastructure
capital investment, and property tax relief. In addition, the ordinance levying the tax increase included a
sunset clause. The tax will revert from 2% of payroll to 1 ½ % October 1, 2008 if the City Commission does
not vote to extend it. In FY2006 Investment Fund expenditures and transfers out totaled $3,745,060. During
the FY 2007 budget process, the Commission reviewed 49 decision packages proposed for the Investment
Fund Budget with a total cost of $12.5 million; expenditures totaling $3.3 million were appropriated.
The City has numerous infrastructure/capital items that will affect the long-term financial planning process.
The following projects are two examples of future considerations facing the City:
Floodwall Restoration. The 12.5-mile long floodwall system protecting a large portion of the Paducah-
McCracken area is approaching 60 years of age. It is still in good condition long beyond its design life;
however, it is in need of necessary repairs. The estimated cost of this restoration project is approximately $5.2
million. Anticipated grant funds will cover 65% of the project, but that still leaves the City with a commitment
of $1.8 million.
Riverfront Redevelopment Plan. The City’s Riverfront Redevelopment Plan includes proposed improvements
that will provide public amenities, recreational facilities & public spaces that will tie the City’s downtown to
the River. The plan includes steamboat landing redevelopment, a public marina, boat ramp, and recreational
trails and shoreline enhancements, just to name a few. Completion of Phase I & Phase II of the riverfront
redevelopment will cost an estimated $46.2 million. In FY2007 the City was allocated $5.3 million in federal
funds for Phase 1. As the project gets underway, property acquisition, construction, and eventually operating
costs will be a long-term planning consideration.
-5-
ECONOMIC CONDITION
The City continues to be aggressive in promoting economic development, since new developmental job growth
is necessary to ensure the continued stability of the City’s tax base. Economic indicators and trends reflect that
the area’s economy has remained steady in recent years and is expected to continue to be steady over the near-
term. Area employment remains stable with 29,920 persons employed (McCracken County) as of June 30,
2006.
The June 2006 unemployment rate was 5.7% (McCracken County), which is 23% higher than the federal rate
of 4.6%. The local unemployment rate of 5.7%, compares favorably to last year’s 6.4%. The number of active
electric and water meters was nearly the same as the prior year. The number of building and electric permits
obtained was 662 for fiscal year 2006 valued at $50.7 million, which is $7.3 million down from fiscal year
2005.
CASH MANAGEMENT
Idle cash in the City’s various funds, except for pension funds, is invested for terms ranging from overnight to
12 months to maturity, depending upon liquidity needs. Independent money managers handle Police and
Firefighters’ Pension Funds. City deposits/investments are protected by FDIC insurance and pledged U.S
Government securities. The amount of interest earned in fiscal year 2006 in the General Fund was $358,950,
on rates varying from 3.25% to 4.95%.
RISK MANAGEMENT
In recent years, attention has been focused on safety in the workplace. Working with the Kentucky League of
Cities (KLC) has produced numerous enhancements in worker safety. In fiscal year 2005, a risk manager was
hired in order to more aggressively address risk issues. The City has selected various insurance coverage to
mitigate potential risk, with premiums/deductibles costing more than $1.2 million and $1.0 million in fiscal
year 2006 and fiscal year 2005, respectively, for general liability, public officials liability, auto, law
enforcement and workers compensation.
PENSION FUND MANAGEMENT
The City of Paducah employees are covered by one of three retirement systems: (1) Police and Firefighters’
Pension Fund (PFPF); (2) County Employees’ Retirement System (CERS); and (3) Appointive Employees’
Pension Fund (AEPF).
The PFPF is a single-employer contributory defined benefit plan established by local ordinance under
Kentucky statutes. Members contribute 8% of their gross earnings. The investments of this fund are managed
by a six-member board of trustees, which utilizes BB&T as money managers. Monthly reports are received,
and monthly meetings are held with the money managers to review investment progress and strategy.
In the past year, the PFPF had a net asset increase of $5,012,636, with net assets valued at $14,163,498 on June
30, 2006. In November 2005, the City issued general obligation bonds of $6.1 million to finance the Police
and Firefighters’ Pension Fund estimated actuary liability. There were 3 active members and 88 retirees and/or
beneficiaries in this fund as of June 30, 2006. The most recent actuarial report prepared for the PFPF was as of
July l, 2006.
The CERS is a multiple employer cost sharing defined benefit plan administered by Kentucky Retirement
System. Effective August 1, 1988, all but 21 active police and firefighters opted to transfer from the present
plan to the County Employees’ Retirement System.
Non-hazardous duty employees contribute 5%, while hazardous duty employees contributed 7% until August
1, 1998. Hazardous duty employees contribute 8% effective August 1, 1998, due to a change in state pension
law. The City contributed 10.98% for non-hazardous and 25.01% for hazardous duty employees in fiscal year
2006.
-6-
The AEPF is a single-employer contributory defined benefit plan created by local ordinance under Kentucky
statute. While there are no active members in the plan, there are 11 retirees and/or beneficiaries receiving
benefits from the fund as of June 30, 2006. Retirees are former non-hazardous duty municipal employees who
retired prior to the statewide CERS plan. Funding was formerly provided by a special ad valorem tax, with
any shortfall to be covered by a transfer from the City’s General Fund. The AEPF had a net asset increase of
$15,755 in fiscal year 2006, with net assets valued as of June 30, 2006, of $344,643.
SPECIAL REVENUE FUNDS
Special revenue funds (Nonmajor Governmental Funds) included in this report are the Municipal Aid Program,
Emergency Communication Service Fund, Court Awards Fund, and various Federal and State Grants.
Revenues accounted for in these funds are restricted to specific purposes.
PROPRIETARY FUNDS
The City maintains seven proprietary funds which are: Solid Waste, Civic Center, Telecommunication
Information System Authority (TISA) (Business-type Activities); and Fleet Maintenance, Fleet Lease Trust,
Insurance and Health Insurance Funds (Internal Service Funds).
In fiscal year 1990, the Solid Waste Fund and the Wastewater/Stormwater Fund were reclassified from
General Government and established as proprietary funds. The City’s fleet operation was broken out as a
proprietary fund in fiscal year 1992, in order to more accurately reflect the true cost of the City’s vehicle and
equipment fleet maintenance program. The Civic Center’s operation was converted into a proprietary fund in
fiscal year 1993. In fiscal year 1999, the City set up two new funds called Fleet Lease Trust and Health
Insurance Funds in order to more accurately monitor the City’s fleet lease program and health, dental and
flexible benefits programs, respectively. All these changes were made to better account for the cost of
operations. The Wastewater/Stormwater Fund was closed out in fiscal year 2004, since the Paducah-
McCracken County Joint Sewer Authority (JSA) has taken over the planning, financing, operation and
maintenance of all county and city sewer systems.
DEBT SERVICE FUND
This fund is used to account for payment of general obligation indebtedness, which includes the following debt
issues.
In fiscal year 2001, the City issued $9.29 million in general obligation bonds to fund the Julian Carroll
Convention Center expansion ($6.0 million) and to assist in the financing of the Luther F. Carson Four Rivers
Center (FRC) for the Performing Arts ($3.0 million). According to an interlocal agreement between the City,
McCracken County and the Tourism and Convention Commission, principal and interest payments on the
bonds are to be made from a 2% transient room tax collected by the County. Any excess principal and interest
payments on the bonds are split equally between the City, County and the Tourism and Convention
Commission.
In fiscal year 2004, the City issued $3.5 million in bonds to fund a variety of capital projects, including park
improvements ($1.0 million), downtown infrastructure improvements in conjunction with the FRC ($1.5
million), and City Hall, Police and other City-owned facility improvements ($1.0 million). In fiscal year 2004,
the City sold $5.0 million in bonds to construct the Infiniti Media Building in the Paducah Industrial Park
West, an economic development project. By interlocal agreement, McCracken County is obligated to an
amount equal to 50% of the principal amount of the bonds. After the third year of the life of the bond, the
Infiniti Media Company is obligated to make monthly lease payments to the Paducah-McCracken County
Industrial Development Authority (IDA) in an amount nearly equal to the debt service obligation.
In fiscal year 2006, the City issued $6.1 million in general obligation bonds to fully fund the Police and
Firefighters Pension Fund’s unfunded pension liability.
The total cash outlay requirements for debt service retirement; principal and interest, in fiscal year 2006 were
$1,543,584.
-7-
INDEPENDENT AUDIT
Kentucky Revised Statute 91 A-040 requires an annual audit of each fund of the City by an auditor of public
accounts or a certified public accountant. The independent certified public accounting firm of Kemper CPA
Group, LLP has conducted this audit and their opinion has been included in this report. The City is also
subject to the Single Audit Act Amendments of 1996 reporting requirements. The Single Audit Report is
included within this report.
CERTIFICATE OF ACHIEVEMENT
The Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA) awarded a Certificate
of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting to the City of Paducah, Kentucky for its comprehensive
annual financial report for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2005. This was the fifteenth consecutive year that the
City achieved this prestigious award.
In order to be awarded a Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting, a government must
publish an easily readable and efficiently organized comprehensive annual financial report. This report must
satisfy both generally accepted accounting principles and applicable legal requirements.
A Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting is valid for a period of one year only. We
believe our current comprehensive annual financial report continues to meet the Certificate of Achievement
Program’s requirements, and we are submitting it to GFOA to determine its eligibility for another certificate.
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
The preparation of this report on a timely basis could not be accomplished without the efficient and dedicated
services of the entire staff of the Finance Department. We wish to express our appreciation to all members of
the Finance Department who assisted and contributed to its preparation, and special thanks to Kemper CPA
Group, LLP. We also thank the Mayor and City Commission for their interest and support in planning and
conducting the financial operations of the City in a responsible and progressive manner.

and analysis of City financial activities for fiscal year ended June 30, 2006. To fully understand the entire
scope of the City’s financial activities, this information should be read in conjunction with the letter of
transmittal (pages 1-8) and the basic financial statements (pages 27-80) provided in this document.
The City first implemented Government Accounting Standards Board Statement 34, Basic Financial
Statements—and Management’s Discussion and Analysis—for State and Local Governments, for fiscal year
2003.
I. Financial Highlights
Assets exceeded liabilities by $43.5 million at the close of the 2005-2006 fiscal year. Of this
amount, $7.9 million (unrestricted net assets) may be used to meet City government’s ongoing
obligations to citizens and creditors.
Total net assets increased $3.4 million.
At fiscal year end, City governmental funds reported a combined ending fund balance of $13.4
million. Approximately 74% of this total amount, $9.9 million, is unreserved and available for
spending at the City’s discretion. Of the $9.9 million, $790,381 is in various special funds, which
are earmarked for specific purposes.
At the end of the current fiscal year, unreserved general fund balance was $9.2 million, of which
cash makes up approximately $4.4 million. When compared to actual total appropriations, the
general fund cash balance is 13%.
II. Overview of Financial Statements
This discussion and analysis serves as an introduction to the City’s basic financial statements, which
consist of four components: 1) government-wide financial statements, 2) fund financial statements, 3)
component unit financial statements, and 4) notes to the financial statements. This report also contains
other supplementary information in addition to the basic financial statements.
A. Government-Wide Financial Statements
Government-wide financial statements are designed to provide readers with a broad overview of
City finances in a manner similar to private-sector business.
The Statement of Net Assets presents information on all City assets and liabilities, with the
difference between assets and liabilities reported as net assets. Monitoring increases and/or
decreases in net assets over time may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial position of
the City is improving, stagnating, or deteriorating.
The Statement of Activities presents information showing how the City’s net assets changed during
the fiscal year. All net asset changes are reported as soon as the underlying event giving rise to the
change occurs regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Revenues and expenses are reported in
the Statement of Activities for some items that will only result in cash flows in the future (e.g.,
uncollected taxes and earned but unused vacation leave).
Both of the government-wide financial statements distinguish City functions that are primarily
supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues (governmental activities) from other City
functions that are intended to recover all or a significant portion of their costs through user fees and
charges (business-type activities). City governmental activities include general government, public
safety, public service, park and recreation, planning and development, and interest on long-term
debt. Business-type activities of the City include Solid Waste, Civic Center and Telecommunication
Information System Authority (TISA).
-14-
Government-wide financial statements include not only the City (the primary government), but also
a legally separate Paducah Water Works, Paducah Power System and Transit Authority of the City
of Paducah (component units) for which the City is financially accountable. Financial information
for the component units is reported separately from the financial information presented for the
primary government itself.
The government-wide financial statements can be found on pages 27-30 of this report.
B. Fund Financial Statements
A fund is a grouping of related accounts that is used to maintain control over segregated resources
for specific activities or objectives. The City of Paducah, like other state and local governments,
uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements.
City funds can be divided into three categories:
1) Governmental Funds. Governmental funds are used to account for essentially the same
functions reported as governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. Unlike
government-wide financial statements, however, governmental fund financial statements focus on
current sources and uses of spendable resources, as well as on balances of spendable resources
available at the end of the fiscal year. This information may be useful in evaluating a city’s near-
term financing requirements.
The City maintains fifteen (15) individual governmental funds. Information is presented separately
in the governmental fund balance sheet and in the governmental fund statement of revenues,
expenditures, and changes in fund balances for the General, General Capital Improvements, and
Investment Funds, all of which are considered to be major funds. Data from the other twelve (12)
funds are combined into a single, aggregated presentation. Individual fund data for each of these
non-major governmental funds is provided in the form of combining and individual fund statements
elsewhere in this report on pages 89-103.
Readers may better understand the long-term impact of the City’s near-term financing decisions by
comparing the narrow-focus governmental funds financial statements with governmental activities
in the government-wide financial statements. Exhibit 4 (pages 33-34) and Exhibit 6 (pages 37-38)
provide a reconciliation to ease comparison between the fund financial statements and the
government-wide statements.
The basic governmental fund financial statements can be found on pages 31-38 of this report.
2) Proprietary Funds. The City maintains two types of proprietary funds:
a. Enterprise Funds. Enterprise funds are used to report the same functions presented as
business-type activities in the government-wide financial statements and are used to account
for operations:
That are financed and operated in a manner similar to private business enterprises where
the intent of the governing body is that the costs of providing goods and services to the
general public on a continuing basis be financed or recovered primarily through user
charges; or
Where the governing body has decided that periodic determination of revenues earned,
expenses incurred, and/or net income is appropriate for capital maintenance, public
policy, management control, accountability or other purposes.
The City uses three enterprise funds to account for Solid Waste, Civic Center and TISA, as
well as certain component units that provide electric, water, and public transit. TISA and
Civic Center receive subsidy from the General Fund.
-15-
The City’s component unit enterprises include the Paducah Water Works, Paducah Power
System and Paducah Transit Authority, which provide water, electric, light and power
systems, and public transportation. These component units, each of which has their own
board of directors, are also enterprise funds and are shown on pages 44-47.
b. Internal Service Funds are used to accumulate and allocate costs internally among the
City’s various functions. The City uses internal service funds to account for fleet services,
fleet replacement, risk management (insurance) and employee health programs. Internal
Service Funds have been allocated between governmental activities and business-type
activities in the government-wide financial statements based on revenue earned.
Proprietary funds provide the same kind of information as government-wide financial
statements, but in greater detail. Individual data for the nonmajor proprietary funds is presented
in the form of combining statements on pages 104-106 of this report. Individual data for the
internal service funds is likewise presented in the form of combining statements on pages 107-
109 of this report.
3) Fiduciary Funds. Fiduciary funds are used to account for resources held for the benefit of
parties outside the government and are not reflected in government-wide financial statements
because those resources are not available to support City programs. Individual data for the
City’s five (5) fiduciary funds (Appointive Employees’ Pension, Police and Firefighters’
Retirement, Oak Grove Cemetery Trust, Maintenance and Rehabilitation Trust and Payroll
Agency) are presented in the form of combining statements on pages 110-114 of this report.
C. Notes to the Financial Statements
The notes provide additional information that is essential to fully understanding data provided in the
government-wide and fund financial statements. Notes to the financial statements can be found on
pages 48-80 of this report.
D. Other Information
In addition to basic financial statements and accompanying notes, this report also presents certain
required supplementary information concerning City funding of its obligation to provide pension
benefits to its employees and budgetary comparison schedules for the general and major special
revenue funds.
The combining statements referred to earlier in connection with nonmajor governmental funds,
nonmajor proprietary funds, internal service funds and fiduciary funds are presented immediately
following the required supplementary information on pensions and budgetary comparisons.
Combining fund statements and schedules can be found on pages 89-114 of this report.
III. Government-Wide Financial Analysis
As noted earlier, net assets may serve over time as a useful indicator of the City’s financial position.
City assets exceeded liabilities by $43.5 million as of June 30, 2006.
The largest portion of the City’s net assets (74%) reflects its investment in capital assets (i.e., land,
buildings, machinery, equipment and infrastructure) less outstanding related debt used to acquire those
assets. The City uses these capital assets to provide service to citizens and, as a result, these assets are
not available for future spending. The City’s capital assets investment is reported net of related debt,
but the resources to pay this debt must be provided from other sources since the capital assets cannot be
used to liquidate the liabilities.
-16-
An additional portion of City net assets (8%) represents resources that are subject to external
restrictions on how they may be used. The remaining balance of unrestricted net assets (18%) may be
used to meet the City’s ongoing obligations to citizens and creditors.
As of June 30, 2006, the City reports positive balances in all three categories of net assets, both for the
government as a whole, as well as for its separate governmental and business-type activities.
In this fourth year of implementation of GASB Statement 34, the City is presenting comparative
columns in the various comparisons and analyses for the prior year.

IV. Financial Analysis of the City’s Funds
A. Governmental Funds
The focus of the City’s governmental funds is to provide information on near-term inflows, outflows
and balances of spendable resources. Such information is useful in determining the City’s financing
requirements. Unreserved fund balance serves as a useful measure of the City’s net resources
available for spending at the end of the fiscal year.
At the end of the fiscal year, the City governmental funds reported combined ending fund balances
of $13.4 million (see Exhibit 3). Approximately 74% of this total amount, $9.9 million, is
unreserved fund balance, which is available for spending at the government’s discretion but only up
to the amount represented by cash. Of the $9.9 million, $790,381 is in the debt service fund and
various special revenue funds, which are earmarked for specific purposes. The remaining $3.5
million of fund balance is reserved for specific future uses.
The general fund is the chief operating fund of the City. At the end of the 2005-2006 fiscal year, the
general fund unreserved fund balance was $9.2 million. City fiscal policy (ordinance 2005-6-6988)
required that an amount not less than 8% of the General Fund’s budgeted expenditures remain
undesignated in the fund balance, or $2.7 million, which leaves $6.5 million as unreserved for fiscal
year 2006. While $6.5 million represents unreserved fund balance, it is worth noting here that at
year-end there was only $4.4 million available as cash, the balance is tied up in other assets
including accounts receivable and property taxes collectible. As a measure of general fund liquidity,
readers may compare both unreserved fund balance and total fund balance to total general fund
expenditures. Unreserved General Fund fund balance represents approximately 27% of
expenditures and transfers out ($34 million). When compared to total appropriations ($34 million),
the general fund cash balance ($4.4 million) is 13%.
The General Fund fund balance increased by $854 thousand during the 2005-2006 fiscal year and
was the result of expenditures being held down and a strong revenue environment, thus revenues
outgrew expenditures. Key factors contributing to this positive change include the following:
o Strong business license collections,
o Continued growth in payroll tax collections, and
o A successful ‘Amnesty Program’ (netted $320,000).
The General Capital Improvements Fund had a fund balance of $1.97 million all of which is
reserved. The General Capital Improvements fund balance increased $1 million over last year. The
fund balance increased because several capital projects that were fully funded had not yet been
completed; therefore, funds remained on hand at year-end.

The Investment Fund had a fund balance of $720 thousand, all of which is reserved for capital
projects. The Investment Fund’s fund balance increased $720 thousand. The Investment Fund was
authorized by the City Commission in fiscal year 2005-2006 as a special revenue fund whose use is
restricted to economic development, community redevelopment and capital and infrastructure
projects. The Investment Fund captures all manner of financial activities related to revenue from the
½ cent payroll tax increase, effective October 1, 2005.
B. Proprietary Funds
The City’s proprietary funds provide the same information found in the government-wide financial
statements, but in more detail.
Unrestricted net assets of the respective proprietary funds are:
Solid Waste $ (33,736)
Civic Center (3,612)
TISA 136,710
Combined total net asset change for the three funds was $44 thousand less than last year, broken
down as follows: Solid Waste ($0 thousand), Civic Center $55 thousand, and TISA ($99 thousand).
Other factors concerning the proprietary enterprise funds have been addressed in the discussion of
City business-type activities (III, C).
V. General Fund Budgetary Highlights
Differences between the original budget and the final actual amounts resulted in a $618 thousand
decrease in appropriations and can be briefly summarized as follows:
Appropriations
Department Increase Decrease
(In Thousands)
General administration $ - $ 32
Finance - 38
Planning - 51
Human rights - 1
Human resources - 39
Inspection 28 -
Information systems - 43
Risk management 4 -
Police - 282
Fire - 76
Public works - 157
Engineering services - 170
Recreation - 61
Other 300 -
Transfers out were increased $6.3 million. This net increase is broken down as follows: $300 thousand
for economic development and neighborhood redevelopment; and $6 million to fund the cost of the Police
and Firefighter Pension Fund (PFPF) unfunded liability. The PFPF cost is offset with the proceeds of a
general obligation bond as described in the ‘Long-Term Debt’ section of this report (VI, B). The decrease
in appropriations of $618 thousand, coupled with the non-PFPF portion of transfers out, or $300 thousand,
affected the fund balance positively.
The budget is a ‘living and breathing’ plan document, which requires adjustments throughout the year. In
order to meet the continuing challenge to fund economic development and neighborhood redevelopment it
was necessary to reduce the cost of operations by $618 thousand and increase the non-PFPF portion of
transfers out by $300 thousand, or a positive net change of $318 thousand.

VI. Capital Asset and Debt Administration
A. Capital Assets
The City’s investment in capital assets for governmental and business-type activities as of June 30,
2006, is $38.1 million (net of accumulated depreciation). This investment in capital assets includes
land, buildings and improvements, vehicles and equipment, park facilities, roads, highways, and
bridges, and construction in progress.
Capital improvements are included in each department budget until improvements are completed.
At the end of the fiscal year, completed projects are capitalized in the Government-wide Statements.
During fiscal year 2006, projects and equipment expenditures totaled nearly $4.8 million. The
largest capital-type projects, in terms of dollars in fiscal year 2006, are shown in the following table:
Pecan Drive improvement project $2,366,775
Equipment for Public Safety and Public Works 338,085
Noble Park Improvements & Recreation Trail 272,630
Neighborhood Redevelopment (includes Fountain & Uppertown) 177,913
Municipal Facility Improvements 174,576
In the upcoming years, several street, economic development, riverfront development, quality of life
and drainage projects will continue and are estimated to cost several million dollars. Capital
improvement projects including infrastructure, the continuing airport expansion, recreational facility
improvements, continued neighborhood revitalization, and street and sidewalk rehabilitation are
among the projects to be addressed.

statements on pages 62-64.
B. Long-Term Debt
At year-end, the City had $24,083,707 in outstanding bonds, accrued compensated absences and
notes payable, compared to $18,506,727 at June 30, 2005 with maturities extending through 2026.
During the year, the City’s total debt increased by $5,576,980, as shown in the following table:

In June 2001, a $9.29 million general obligation bond was added to the City’s debt obligation to
finance construction of the Luther F. Carson Four Rivers Center for the Performing Arts
(approximately $3.0 million) and the expansion of the Julian Carroll Convention Center
(approximately $6.0 million). These bonds are required to be fully paid within 25 years from the date
of issue and are backed by the full faith and credit of the City. While the City issued these bonds,
50% of the principal amount of the bonds is being issued on behalf of the County of McCracken,
Kentucky. McCracken County has issued the City a general obligation note in a principal amount
equal to 50% of the principal amount of the bonds.
In fiscal year 2004, the City borrowed $3.5 million to fund a variety of capital projects, including
park improvements ($1.0 million), downtown infrastructure improvements in conjunction with the
FRC ($1.5 million), and City Hall, Police and other City-owned facility improvements ($1.0 million).
In fiscal year 2004, the City sold $5.0 million in bonds to construct the Infiniti Media Building in the
Paducah Industrial Park West, an economic development project. By interlocal agreement,
McCracken County is obligated to an amount equal to 50% of the principal amount of the bonds.
After the third year of the life of the bond, the Infiniti Media Company is obligated to make monthly
lease payments to the City in an amount nearly equal to the debt service obligation.
In fiscal year 2005, the County of McCracken entered into two separate agreements totaling
$550,000, with the Kentucky Association of Counties (KACO) for purchase of a rail spur and
construction of a speculative building in the Industrial Park West. Both notes are required to be fully
paid within 5 years from date of issue and are backed jointly by the full faith and credit of the City
and County. While the County issued both notes, 50% of the principal amount of both was issued on
behalf of the City, which intends to participate on an equal basis with the County in accordance with
an interlocal agreement.
In fiscal year 2006, the City issued $6.1 million in general obligation bonds to finance the police and
firefighter’s pension fund estimated pension liability. These bonds are to be fully paid within 20
years and are backed by the full faith and credit of the City.
The City’s legal debt limit under §158 of the Kentucky Constitution is 10% of total assessed value of
taxable property in Paducah; therefore, the debt limit is $175,093,068. The City’s latest bond rating
by Moody is A2. The City has a low amount of general obligation debt, which explains our large
legal debt margin.
The City of Paducah, Kentucky, issues and incurs debt in order to fund capital improvement projects,
purchase major capital equipment and facilities, and respond to other special funding needs. In fiscal
year 2006, less than 5.5% of the General Fund budget is expended for debt service, and thus has
minimal impact on current and future operations.
Additional information on the City’s long-term debt can be found in Note 3 in the notes to financial
statements on pages 65-68.

VII. Economic Factors and Next Year’s Budgets and Rates.
A. General Comments. Paducah continued to experience steady-growth in the local economy as
compared to the national economy in fiscal year 2006. It is estimated that over 575 jobs were
created or retained in fiscal year 2006 along with $9.25 million in private capital investments.
Paducah continues to experience retail growth in the Kentucky Oaks Mall area and the City’s
Southside in addition to job expansions in the Information Age Park and the Industrial Park West.
The downtown area continues to be enhanced with the addition of new retail establishments, further
expanding the property tax value base as well as the payroll tax base. Downtown was improved
with the opening of the Luther F. Carson Four Rivers Center for the Performing Arts (FRC) in 2004
at a cost in excess of $35 million.
During fiscal 2006, approximately $2.4 million was spent on the Pecan Drive Improvements project
in the western part of the City. This roadway project will cost more than $6 million when fully
completed in fiscal 2007. It consists of 1.8 miles of roadway designed to accommodate modern-day
traffic flow near the City’s retail areas and opens up over 160 acres for development.
Major capital projects over the past few years have significantly increased the flow of commerce,
tourism and traffic flow in the City.
B. Unemployment Rate. The unemployment rate for the City of Paducah (McCracken County) as of
June 2006 was 5.7%.
C. Inflationary Trends. Inflationary trends in the City compare favorably to state and national trends.
D. Annexation Policy. The City’s major long-term concern is revenue for capital projects. Incentive
investments in annexation and economic development should enable revenue to increase over the
next 5-8 years. Paducah will continue to pursue its annexation efforts as these efforts will insure
long-term financial stability for the City in terms of increased property taxes, payroll taxes, and
business gross receipts fees through further commercial, industrial, and residential development.
City policy will continue to provide annexation incentives that should pay for themselves in the
long-term and serve as incentive investments in future revenues to offset the cost of providing
services to the newly annexed areas. The policy of balanced and controlled growth will be one of
the City’s greatest challenges in the next five to ten years.
E. Strategic Fleet Acquisition Plan. The City’s effort to limit expenditure growth and seek cost
savings opportunities assists our effort to insure that funds are available for future capital projects.
Paducah implemented the Strategic Fleet Acquisition Plan fiscal year 1998-1999 in an effort to
systematically review the City’s fleet of vehicles. This plan allows the City to make long-range
plans for replacing vehicles at the optimal time to avoid high maintenance costs and take advantage
of a higher resale value.
F. Enterprise Zone. Since its inception, the Paducah Enterprise Zone Program has produced 333
qualified businesses, which have pledged expenditures of $107 million in addition to creating 395-
targeted jobs.
All the above factors, in addition to current and future needs of the City, were considered when the
2006-2007 Budget for the City of Paducah was prepared. The beginning general fund balance for
fiscal year 2006-2007 is $9,157,310 (cash balance was $4,401,832). The City has estimated an
ending fund balance of $8,820,380 (cash balance $4,100,000 or 14% of projected general fund
expenditures). An increase in employee payroll withholding tax went into effect October 2005. The
increase grossed over $1.8 million during the first year of implementation and over $3.9 million is
anticipated in 2006-2007. At the present time, the City is in good financial condition.

The prepayment of a pension obligation requires the use of current
financial resources and, therefore, is reported as an expenditure in
governmental funds. However, the prepayment does not affect net
assets in the government-wide Statement of Activities.
Inventory purchases require the use of current financial resources
and, therefore, are reported as expenditures in governmental funds.
Inventory sales provide current financial resources and are reported
as revenues in governmental funds.
Tax revenues in the governmental funds that do not provide current
financial resources are not reported as revenues in the Statement of
Activities.

Contributions for debt service received from other governments are
reported as current year revenue in the governmental funds.
However, receipts for long-term receivables are not considered
revenue in the Statement of Activities.
Governmental funds report capital outlays as expenditures.
However, in the Statement of Activities, the cost of those assets is
allocated over their estimated useful lives as depreciation expense.
This is the amount of capital outlays in the current period.
Delinquent property taxes receivable are not considered "available"
revenues in the governmental funds.
Interest revenue on the long-term note receivable is not reported on
the governmental funds since neither the note receivable nor the
interest is available to pay current period expenditures.

Depreciation expense on capital assets is reported in the government-

require the use of current financial resources. Therefore,
depreciation expense is not reported as an expenditure in
governmental funds. This amount includes Internal Service Funds'

YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2006
CITY OF PADUCAH, KENTUCKY
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2006
Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
General Statement
The City of Paducah (City) complies with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). GAAP
includes all relevant Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) pronouncements. In the
government-wide financial statements and the fund financial statements for the proprietary funds,
Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) pronouncements and Accounting Principles Board (APB)
opinions issued on or before November 30, 1989, have been applied unless those pronouncements conflict
with or contradict GASB pronouncements, in which case, GASB prevails. For enterprise funds, GASB
Statement Nos. 20 and 34 provide the City the option of electing to apply FASB pronouncements issued
after November 30, 1989. The City has elected not to apply those pronouncements. The accounting and
reporting framework and the more significant accounting policies are discussed in subsequent subsections
of this Note. The financial reporting entity, basis of accounting, and other significant policies employed
by the City are summarized as follows:
Financial Reporting Entity
The City operates under a City Manager form of government. The Board of Commissioners consists of a
Mayor and four Commissioners elected at large by the citizens on a non-partisan basis. As required by
generally accepted accounting principles, the financial statements of the reporting entity include those of
the City of Paducah (the primary government) and its component units. The component units discussed
below are included in the City’s reporting entity because of the significance of their operational or
financial relationships with the City.
Blended Component Units
The following component units have been presented as blended component units because the component
unit’s governing body is substantially the same as the governing body of the City, or the component unit
provides services almost entirely to the primary government.
Paducah Public Improvement Corporation - The Mayor and Commissioners serve as the governing
body for the Corporation. Although it is legally separate from the City, the Paducah Public
Improvement Corporation is reported as if it were part of the primary government because its sole
purpose is to finance long-term debt since the City may not legally obligate itself beyond one year.
Police and Firefighters’ Pension Fund - This retirement fund was established for the benefit of the
police and firemen of the City. It is administered by a Board of Trustees consisting of the Mayor, City
Finance Director and representatives of the Police and Fire Departments. The Board is authorized to
establish benefit levels and to approve actuarial assumptions used in the determination of contribution
levels.
Discretely Presented Component Units
The component unit column in the basic financial statements includes the financial data of the City’s other
component units. They are reported in a separate column to emphasize that they are legally separate from
the City. The following component units are included in the reporting entity because of their financial
relationship with the City.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2006
Note 1 - Summary of Significant Account Policies:
Basis of Presentation
Government-wide Financial Statements
The Statement of Net Assets and Statement of Activities display information about the reporting
government as a whole. They include all funds of the reporting entity except for fiduciary funds. The
statements distinguish between governmental and business-type activities. Governmental activities
generally are financed through taxes, intergovernmental revenues, and other nonexchange revenues.
Business-type activities are financed in whole or in part by fees charged to external parties for goods or
services.
Fund Financial Statements
Fund financial statements of the reporting entity are organized into funds, each of which is considered to
be separate accounting entities. Each fund is accounted for by providing a separate set of self-balancing
accounts that constitute its assets, liabilities, fund equity, revenues, and expenditure/expenses. Funds are
organized into three major categories: governmental, proprietary, and fiduciary. An emphasis is placed
on major funds within the governmental and proprietary categories. A fund is considered major if it is the
primary operating fund of the City or meets the following criteria:
a. Total assets, liabilities, revenues, or expenditures/expenses of that individual governmental or
enterprise fund are at least ten percent of the corresponding total for all funds of that category or
type; and
b. Total assets, liabilities, revenues, or expenditures/expenses of the individual governmental fund or
enterprise fund are at least five percent of the corresponding total for all governmental and enterprise
funds combined.
The funds of the financial reporting entity are described below:
Governmental funds are those funds through which most governmental functions typically are financed.
The measurement focus of governmental funds is on the sources, uses and balance of current financial
resources. The City has presented the following major governmental funds:
General Fund - To account for resources traditionally associated with governments which are not
required to be accounted for in another fund.
General Capital Improvements – To account for the acquisition or construction of major capital projects
other than those financed by proprietary fund operations and special assessments.
Special Revenue Investment Fund – To account for restricted funds from employee license fee used for
economic development, neighborhood redevelopment and infrastructure capital investments within
Paducah.
The City has presented the following major proprietary fund:
Solid Waste Fund – To account for the provision of refuse services to the residents of the City.
Additionally, the City reports the internal service funds which are used to account for the fleet
management services, self funded property and casualty self insurance and self funded health and
disability insurance provided to departments of the city.
Fiduciary funds report resources held in trust. Pension trust funds report the receipt, investment, and
distribution of retirement contributions. Private-purpose trust funds report the receipt and distribution of
maintenance trust agreements.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2006
Note 1 - Summary of Significant Account Policies:
Agency fund accounts for the City’s payroll wages, taxes and related withholdings.
Measurement Focus
Measurement focus is a term used to describe “which” transactions are recorded within the various
financial statements. Basis of accounting refers to “when” transactions are recorded regardless of the
measurement focus applied.
On the government-wide Statement of Net Assets and the Statement of Activities, both governmental and
business-type activities are presented using the economic resources measurement focus as defined in item
b. below.
In the fund financial statements, the “current financial resources” measurement focus or the “economic
resources” measurement focus is used as appropriate:
a. All governmental, pension and private-purpose trust funds utilize a “current financial resources”
measurement focus. Only current financial assets and liabilities are generally included on their
balance sheets. Their operating statements present sources and uses of available spendable financial
resources during a given period. These funds use fund balance as their measure of available
spendable financial resources at the end of the period.
b. The proprietary fund utilizes an “economic resources” measurement focus. The accounting
objectives of this measurement focus are the determination of operating income, changes in net
assets (or cost recovery), financial position, and cash flows. All assets and liabilities (whether
current or noncurrent) associated with their activities are reported. Proprietary fund equity is
classified as net assets.
c. Agency funds are not involved in the measurement of results of operations; therefore, measurement
focus is not applicable to them.
Basis of Accounting
In the government-wide Statement of Net Assets and Statement of Activities, both governmental and
business-type activities are presented using the accrual basis of accounting. Under the accrual basis of
accounting, revenues are recognized when earned and expenses are recorded when the liability is incurred
or economic asset used.
In the fund financial statements, governmental funds are presented on the modified accrual basis of
accounting. Under this modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when “measurable
and available.” Measurable means knowing or being able to reasonably estimate the amount. Available
means collectible within the current period or within sixty days after year end. Expenditures (including
capital outlay) are recorded when the related fund liability is incurred, except for general obligation bond
principal and interest which are reported when due. Agency funds are presented using the accrual basis of
accounting.
All proprietary, pension and private-purpose funds utilize the accrual basis of accounting. Under the
accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when earned and expenses are recorded when the
liability is incurred or economic asset used.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2006
Note 1 - Summary of Significant Account Policies:
Revenues – Exchange and Non-Exchange Transactions
Revenue resulting from exchange transactions, in which each party gives and receives essentially equal
value, is recorded on the accrual basis when the exchange takes place. On a modified accrual basis,
revenue is recorded in the fiscal year in which the resources are measurable and become available.
Available means that the resources will be collected within the current fiscal year or are expected to be
collected soon enough thereafter to be used to pay liabilities of the current fiscal year. For the City,
available means expected to be received within sixty days of year end.
Non-exchange transactions, in which the City receives value without directly giving equal value in return,
include employee license taxes, property taxes, grants, entitlements and donations. The City considers
property taxes as available if they are collected within sixty days after year end. Revenue from grants,
entitlements, and donations is recognized in the year in which all eligibility requirements have been
satisfied. Eligibility requirements include timing requirements, which specify the year when the resources
are required to be used or the year when use is first permitted, matching requirements, in which the City
must provide local resources to be used for a specified purpose, and expenditure requirements, in which
the resources are provided to the City on a reimbursement basis. On a modified accrual basis, revenue
from non-exchange transactions must also be available before it can be recognized.
The revenues susceptible to accrual are taxes, intergovernmental, employer and employees’ contributions
to trust funds, interest revenue and charges for services. Permit revenues are not susceptible to accrual
because generally they are not measurable until received in cash.
Deferred revenue
The City reports deferred revenue on its statement of net assets. Deferred revenues arise when potential
revenue does not meet both the “measurable” and “available” criteria for recognition in the current period.
Deferred revenues also arise when resources are received by the City before it has a legal claim to them, as
when grant monies are received prior to the incurrence of qualifying expenditures. In subsequent periods,
when both revenue recognition criteria are met, or when the City has a legal claim to the resources, the
liability for deferred revenue is removed from the statement of net assets and revenue is recognized.
Allocation of Indirect Expenses
The City allocates indirect expenses primarily comprised of fleet management services and various self
funded insurance coverage provided to departments and employees of the city not directly allocated.
Allocations are charged to functions based on use by weighted-average methodology.
Budgets and Budgetary Accounting
The City legal adopts annual budgets for all governmental and proprietary funds except for Section Eight
Housing Fund. The City follows these procedures in establishing the budgetary data reflected in these
financial statements:
1. Prior to July, the City Manager submits to the City Commission a proposed operating budget for the
fiscal year commencing on July 1. The operating budget includes proposed expenditures and the
means of financing those.
2. Public hearings are conducted by the City to obtain taxpayer comments.

CITY OF PADUCAH, KENTUCKY
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2006
Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
3. Prior to July, the budget is legally enacted through passage of an ordinance.
4. The City Manager is authorized to transfer budgeted amounts between department line items;
however, any revisions that alter the total expenditures of any department must be approved by the
City Commission.
5. Formal budgetary integration is employed as a management control device during the year and the
budget is legally adopted. Budget amendments are also legally adopted.
6. The budget is adopted on a basis (budget basis), which differs from generally accepted accounting
principles (GAAP basis).
Encumbrance accounting, under which purchase orders, contracts, and other commitments for the
expenditure of monies are recorded in order to reserve that portion of the applicable appropriation, is
employed as an extension of formal budgetary integration in the General Fund, Special Revenue Funds,
Debt Service Fund, and Capital Projects Funds. In accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles (GAAP), encumbrances outstanding at year end are reported as reservations of fund balances
since they do not constitute expenditures or liabilities. There are no encumbrances at June 30, 2006.
Cash and Investments
The City Council updated and adopted formal deposit and investment policies in January 2001. These
policies apply to all City funds not contained in public trusts. Pension trust fund has investment policies
separately approved by their oversight board. The private purpose trust has no adopted deposit and
investment policy.
For the purpose of the Statement of Net Assets, “cash and cash equivalents” includes all demand and
savings accounts of the City. For the purpose of the proprietary fund Statement of Cash Flows, “cash and
cash equivalents” include all demand and savings accounts, and certificates of deposit or short-term
investments with an original maturity of three months or less.
Investments are reported at fair value which is determined using selected bases. Short-term investments
are reported at cost, which approximates fair value. Securities traded on a national or international
exchange are valued at the last reported sales price at current exchange rates. Managed funds related to the
pension and private purpose trust funds not listed on an established market are reported at estimated fair
value as determined by the respective fund managers based on quoted sales prices of the underlying
securities. Cash deposits and certificates of deposits are reported at carrying amount which reasonably
estimates fair value. Additional cash and investment disclosures are presented in Note 3.
Receivables
In the government-wide statements, receivables consist of all revenues earned at year end and not yet
received. Major receivable balances for the governmental activities include property taxes, employee
earnings taxes, business licenses, insurance premiums taxes, franchise taxes, grant revenue and interlocal
note receivable. Business-type activities report utilities and interest earnings as their major receivables.
The government-wide statements also include general obligation notes receivable related to the general
obligation bonds outstanding as described in Note 3.
In the fund financial statements, material receivables in governmental funds include revenue accruals such
as franchise tax, employee earnings taxes, business licenses, insurance premiums taxes, grants and other
similar intergovernmental revenues since they are usually both measurable and available.

CITY OF PADUCAH, KENTUCKY
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2006
Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
Nonexchange transactions collectible but not available are deferred in the fund financial statements in
accordance with modified accrual, but not deferred in the government-wide financial statements in
accordance with the accrual basis. Interest and investment earnings are recorded when earned only if paid
within sixty days since they would be considered both measurable and available. Proprietary fund
material receivables consist of all revenues earned at year end and not yet received. Utility accounts
receivable and interest earnings compose the majority of proprietary fund receivables. Allowances for
uncollectible accounts receivable are based upon historical trends and the periodic aging of accounts
receivable.
Interfund Receivables and Payables
During the course of operations, numerous transactions occur between individual funds that may result in
amounts owed between funds. Those related to goods and services type transactions are classified as “due
to and from other funds.” Short-term interfund loans are reported as “interfund receivables and payables.”
Long-term interfund loans (noncurrent portion) are reported as “advances from and to other funds.”
Interfund receivables and payables between funds within governmental activities are eliminated in the
Statement of Net Assets. See Note 3 for details of interfund transactions, including receivables and
payables at year end.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at cost on a first-in, first-out basis.
Capital Assets
The accounting treatment over property, plant, and equipment (capital assets) depends on whether the
assets are used in governmental fund operations or proprietary fund operations and whether they are
reported in the government-wide or fund financial statements.
Government-wide Statement
In the government-wide financial statements, property, plant, and equipment are accounted for as capital
assets. All capital assets are valued at historical cost, or estimated historical cost if actual is unavailable,
except for donated capital assets which are recorded at their estimated fair value at the date of donation.
Estimated historical cost was used to value the majority of the assets acquired prior to June 30, 2004.
Assets capitalized have an original cost of $500 or more prior to July 1, 1999, and $2,500 or more after
July 1, 1999. Prior to July 1, 2002, governmental funds’ infrastructure assets were not capitalized. These
assets have been valued at estimated historical cost.
Capital assets of the primary government are depreciated over the estimated useful lives using the straight-
line method. The estimated useful lives are as follows:
Land improvements 10-20 Years
Buildings 30-60 Years
Building improvements 3- 7 Years
Infrastructure 15-20 Years
Equipment 5-25 Years
Furnishings and fixtures 3-10 Years
Vehicles 3- 9 Years

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2006
Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
Fund Financial Statements
In the fund financial statements, capital assets used in governmental fund operations are accounted for as
capital outlay expenditures of the governmental fund upon acquisition. Capital assets used in proprietary
fund operations are accounted for the same as in the government-wide statements.
Restricted Assets
Certain proceeds of enterprise fund revenue bonds, as well as certain resources set aside for their
repayment, are classified as restricted assets on the balance sheet because their use is limited to applicable
bond covenants.
Compensated Absences
Accumulated unpaid vacation, sick pay, and other employee benefit amounts are recorded as long-term
debt in the government-wide statements. The current portion of accrued compensated absences is
estimated based on historical trends. In the fund financial statements, governmental funds report only the
compensated absence liability payable from expendable available financial resources, while the proprietary
funds report the liability as it is incurred.
Accumulations for vacation pay are restricted to a maximum of 50 days and provide vesting rights upon
completion of six months service. Accumulations for sick pay are restricted to a maximum of 150 days
and provide payment to employees or beneficiaries for accumulations in excess of 50 days and up to 120
days upon death or retirement from City service.
Long-Term Debt
The accounting treatment of long-term debt depends on whether the assets are used in governmental fund
operations or proprietary fund operations and whether they are reported in the government-wide or fund
financial statements.
All long-term debt to be repaid from governmental and business-type resources is reported as liabilities in
the government-wide statements. The long-term debt consists primarily of bonds payable, notes payable
and accrued compensated absences.
Long-term debt for governmental funds is not reported as liabilities in the fund financial statements. The
debt proceeds are reported as other financing sources and payment of principal and interest as
expenditures. The accounting for proprietary funds is the same in the fund statements as it is in the
government-wide statements.

unreserved. Proprietary fund equity is classified the same as in the government-wide statements.
Interfund Transactions
Interfund services provided and used are accounted for as revenues, expenditures or expenses.
Transactions that constitute reimbursements to a fund for expenditures/expenses initially made from it that
are properly applicable to another fund, are recorded as expenditures/expenses in the reimbursing fund and
as reductions of expenditures/expenses in the fund that is reimbursed.
All other interfund transactions are reported as transfers. Nonrecurring or nonroutine permanent transfers
of equity are reported as residual equity transfers. All other interfund transfers are reported as operating
transfers.
Program Revenues
Amounts reported as program revenues include 1) charges to customers or applicants for goods, services,
or privileges provided, 2) operating grants and contributions, and 3) capital grants and contributions,
including special assessments. Internally dedicated resources are reported as general revenues rather than

Cash Flows of Proprietary and Nonexpendable Trust Funds and Governmental Entities That Use
Proprietary Fund Accounting. The City adopted the provisions of the Statement in its 1991 financial
statements. For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the City considers all certificates of deposit and
all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash
equivalents.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles
requires management to make assumptions that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly,
actual results could differ from those estimates.
Stewardship, Compliance, and Accountability
By its nature as a local government unit, the City and its component units are subject to various federal,
state, and local laws and contractual regulations. An analysis of the City’s compliance with significant

Note 3 - Detail Notes on Transaction Classes/Accounts:
Interest Rate Risk is the risk that changes in interest rates will adversely affect the fair value of an
investment. The City policy provides that to the extent practicable, investments are matched with
anticipated cash flows. Investments are diversified to minimize the risk of loss resulting from over-
concentration of assets in a specific maturity period, a single issuer, or an individual class of securities.
Unless matched to a specific cash flow, investments are not, in general, made in securities maturing more
than five years from the date of purchase. Surplus cash may be invested in securities exceeding five years
if the maturity of such investments is made to coincide as nearly as practicable with the expected use of the
investment. Concentration of credit risk is the risk of loss attributed to the magnitude of the City’s
investment in a single issuer. The City policy does not specifically address concentration of credit risk.
Pension Trust Policy

The County must comply with established state and federal landfill closure procedures and must perform
maintenance and monitoring procedures at the site for thirty years after closure. The 30-year period will
begin upon approval from the Commonwealth of Kentucky regarding the environmental condition of the
landfill site. As of June 30, 2006, approval had not yet been granted. The County estimated post-closure
care costs totaling $4,125,000 or $125,000 per year plus 10% for inflation. Actual costs may be higher due
to inflation, changes in technology, or changes in regulations. In the year ending June 30, 2001, the City
entered into an inter-local agreement to share equally the costs for post-closure costs and accordingly, has
recorded a long-term liability for 50% of the estimated closure expense. The City reduces the liability

employees of the City. In 1975, the City froze admission of new entrants into the plan. There are no
active participants in the plan at June 30, 2006. The plan financial statements are included in this audit
report.
Contributions: Since there are only retired employees and beneficiaries receiving benefits, the City
expects little or no additional pension obligation. The City has pledged to maintain benefits and the
financial soundness of the plan by appropriations from the General Fund, as necessary.
