“McCracken County Sports Tourism Commission Update
Chairman Jim Dudley with the McCracken County Sports Tourism Commission provided an update on
the activities underway with the Sports Commission. The Sports Commission has finalized an
agreement with the Paducah-McCracken County Convention Center Corporation for use of the Expo
Center for basketball and volleyball tournaments. The Sports Commission has purchased portable
hardwood courts that will allow for four basketball games or eight volleyball games to occur at once.
Dudley says there are events scheduled for late August. Furthermore, the Sports Commission plans to
meet July 22 to discuss outdoor sporting facilities with topics of discussion to include location,
facilities, and sporting types.
Building Assessment Presentation for City of Paducah Facilities
Principal/Mechanical Engineer Baccus Oliver with Marcum Engineering provided an overview of the
2020 Facilities Survey and Plan which assesses 14 City of Paducah buildings. These buildings are
developing many age-related issues and needs. The 14 buildings have an average age of 50 and range
in age from 27 years old (Paducah Recreation Center) to 85 years old (Police Station).
This project began late in 2019 with the assessment team touring each building and scoring various
components and systems in each facility from 1 to 5 (excellent to poor). The team also developed a list
of needs and a 10-year plan for each building ranging from immediate needs that are recommended to
be completed in the next one to three years and long-range needs that could be completed in years
four through 10. The survey provides an overall building score for each facility and scores for
categories including exterior site, building exterior, building interior, plumbing and fire protection,
HVAC, and electrical.
The average building score for all 14 buildings is 3.5 which is between average and below
average. The facilities with the lowest scores are Fire Station No. 1, Fire Station No. 4, Parks &
Recreation Building, Paducah Police Station, and the Robert Cherry Civic Center. The cost of all the
assessed needs over the next 10 years totals $12.6 million.
The 14 facilities reviewed in the study are the Allie Morgan Communication Center (which houses E-
911 and Information Technology), City Hall, five fire stations, Paducah Recreation Center, Parks &
Recreation Building, Police Station, Probation & Parole Office Building, Public Works Offices, Public
Works Warehouse, and Robert Cherry Civic Center.”

Short Title: Approve the Transfer of Municipally Owned Properties Located throughout Paducah to the Joint
Sewer Agency - J HODGES
Category: Ordinance
Staff Work By: James Arndt
Presentation By:
Background Information: JSA was formed by identical ordinances passed by the City and County in
1999. That ordinance specified that all sanitary sewer facilities were merged into the Agency and under
Agency jurisdiction and control. The ordinance further specified that the City and County were to follow up
this merger and transfer any real property related to the sanitary facilities by deed to JSA. The County
property was successfully transferred by deed, but for some reason the City property transfer was started but
not completed. While this has not been an issue related to any funding agency or other entity, JSA is desirous
to complete this issue. JSA has developed survey plats and worked with the City Engineer to establish new
property lines, if ones were required. The property included in this deed is the Paducah Wastewater Treatment
(parcel I), the pump station located at 420 North 3rd Street (parcel II), the pump station located at 2580 Cairo
Road (parcel III), the pump station located at 600 Northview Street (parcel IV), an inactive pump station
located along Olivet Church Road (parcel V), the site of the former Sanitation District One treatment plant in
Lone Oak (parcel VI), and the pump station located at 1201-1207 South 4th Street (parcel VII).

Short Title: Approve Refinancing of the 2010B General Obligation Bond for Interest Savings - J PERKINS
Category: Ordinance
Staff Work By: Jonathan Perkins, James Arndt
Presentation By: Jonathan Perkins, James Arndt
Background Information: In 2001, the City of Paducah issued $9.3 million in general obligation bonds
(GOB) to finance the construction of the Paducah-McCracken County Expo Center and to contribute $3.0
million to the construction of the Carson Four Rivers Center for the Performing Arts.
The 25-year bond issue debt service payments are funded primarily by the 2% McCracken County Bed Tax
with any remaining balance shared equally by the City of Paducah, McCracken County and the Convention
and Visitor’s Bureau.
The 2001 GOB was refinanced in 2010 for an interest savings at that time. The refinanced GOB was named
GOB Series 2010B.
The bond market appears to be favorable to refinance the 2010B GOB issue over the remaining life of the issue
(to FY2026) at an interest savings estimated to exceed $170,000, or $28,000/year for each of the six remaining
years.

of Chapter 424 of the Kentucky Revised Statutes.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED by the City of Paducah, Kentucky, as follows:
Section 1. Necessity, Authorization, and Purpose. The City hereby declares that it is
necessary to issue and authorizes the issuance of its General Obligation Refunding Bonds, Series
2020B, in an aggregate principal amount of $2,945,000, subject to a permitted adjustment (the
“Permitted Adjustment”) increasing the principal amount of Bonds awarded to the Purchaser

thereof by any amount, for the purpose of (i) refunding the 2010B Bonds maturing on or after June
1, 2021 and (ii) paying the costs of issuance of the Bonds.
Notwithstanding anything contained in this Bond Ordinance to the contrary, only
$2,945,000 of Bonds shall be offered for sale in accordance with the provisions hereof, and the
determination of the best bids for the Bonds shall be made on the basis of all bids submitted for
exactly $2,945,000 principal amount of Bonds; provided however, the Permitted Adjustment is
reserved in the City hereunder, with such increase or decrease to be made in any principal maturity
so that the total principal amount of Bonds awarded to the best bidder may be a maximum of
$295,000 or a minimum of any amount. In the event of any such Permitted Adjustment, no
rebidding or recalculation of a submitted bid will be required or permitted; the price at which such
adjusted principal amount of Bonds will be sold shall be at the same price per $1,000 of Bonds as
the price per $1,000 of the $2,945,000 of Bonds bid.
Section 2. Form of Bonds. The Bonds shall be issued as fully registered Bonds, shall
be designated “General Obligation Refunding Bonds, Series 2020B”, shall express upon their faces
the purpose for which they are issued, that they are issued under the Act and shall be substantially
in the form set forth in Annex A attached hereto.
The Bonds shall be in denominations as requested by the Purchaser, which shall be in
integral multiples of five thousand dollars ($5,000). The Bonds shall each be dated their date of
initial issuance and delivery, or such other date as is determined in an Award Certificate accepting
the bids of the Purchaser (the “Award Certificate”) to be executed by the Mayor on the date of the
sale of the Bonds.
Interest on the Bonds shall be payable each June 1st and December 1st (an “Interest Payment
Date”), commencing December 1, 2020, at the stated interest rate or rates on the principal amount
thereof.
The Bonds shall be serial or term Bonds maturing or subject to mandatory sinking fund
redemption on June 1, 2021 and each June 1st thereafter in the years and in the amounts to be
established in the Award Certificate after advertised competitive sale of the Bonds based on the
interest rates set forth in the successful bid (the “Bid”) and the provisions of this Section 2,
- 4 -
provided that the final maturity date of the Bonds shall be as set forth in the Award Certificate but
shall be no later than June 1, 2026. The interest rate or rates on the Bonds shall be determined in
the Award Certificate based on the Bid; provided that the true interest cost of the Bonds shall not
exceed six percent (6.0%).
The Bonds shall not be subject to optional redemption prior to their respective maturities.
At least thirty days before the optional or mandatory sinking fund redemption date of any
Bonds, U.S. Bank National Association (the “Paying Agent and Registrar”) shall cause a notice of
such redemption either in whole or in part, signed by the Paying Agent and Registrar, to be mailed,
first class, postage prepaid, to all registered owners of the Bonds to be redeemed at their addresses
as they appear on the registration books kept by the Paying Agent and Registrar, but failure to mail
any such notice shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for such redemption of Bonds for
which such notice has been sent. Each such notice shall set forth the date fixed for redemption, the
redemption price to be paid and, if less than all of the Bonds being payable by their terms on a
single date then outstanding shall be called for redemption, the distinctive series, number, or
letters, if any, of such Bonds to be redeemed.
On the date so designated for redemption, notice having been mailed in the manner under
the conditions hereinabove provided and moneys for payment of the redemption price being held
in the Bond Payment Fund by the Paying Agent and Registrar for the registered owners of the
Bonds to be redeemed, the Bonds so called for redemption shall become and be due and payable
at the redemption price provided for redemption of such Bonds on such date, interest on the Bonds
so called for redemption shall cease to accrue, and the registered owners of such Bonds shall have
no right in respect thereof except to receive payment of the redemption price thereof.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such redemption may be conditioned upon funds being
deposited with the Paying Agent and Registrar on or before the applicable redemption date in an
amount sufficient to carry out such redemption. A failure to make such deposit shall not constitute
an event of default under this Resolution and the redemption in such event shall be cancelled. If
the City knows in advance of an applicable redemption date that the necessary deposit will not
occur, the City shall notify the Paying Agent and Registrar with instructions to give notice to the
registered holders of the cancellation of the redemption.
Section 3. Execution and Delivery. The Bonds shall be executed by the manual or
facsimile signature of the Mayor and duly attested by the manual or facsimile signature of the City
Clerk (which, together with any other person as may be authorized by resolution are referred to as
“Designated Officers”) and shall have the seal of the City or a facsimile thereof affixed thereto.
Additionally, the Bonds shall bear the manual authenticating signature of the Paying Agent and
Registrar. The Designated Officers are further authorized and directed to deliver the Bonds to the
Purchaser to the County, upon the terms and conditions provided herein, in the Award Certificate
and in the Bid for the Bonds, receive the proceeds therefor, execute and deliver such certificates
and other closing documents and take such other action as may be necessary or appropriate in order
to effectuate the proper issuance, sale, and delivery of the Bonds.

Bonds shall be made directly to the Paying Agent and Registrar for the account of the registered

registered owner, on each Interest Payment Date or by other transfer of funds acceptable to such
registered owner and the Paying Agent and Registrar. Principal shall be payable in such coin or
currency of the United States of America as shall be legal tender for the payment of public and
private debts at the time and place of payment upon delivery of the Bonds to the Paying Agent and
Registrar or by other transfer of funds acceptable to the Paying Agent and Registrar and such
registered owner. All such payments shall be valid and effectual to satisfy and discharge the
liability upon such Bonds to the extent of the sum or sums so paid.
Section 5. Filing. The Designated Officers are hereby authorized to undertake and
cause all filings of notices or information which may be required by law to be filed by the City
with respect to the Bonds, including without limitation the filing with the State Local Debt Officer
required by law.
Section 6. Bond Payment Fund; Payment of Bonds. There is hereby established with
the Paying Agent and Registrar a bond payment fund in the name of the City to be known as the

the purpose of (i) refunding in advance of maturity the outstanding City of Paducah, Kentucky

which were used to refinance the costs of the expansion of the Julian Carroll Convention Center
and to construct the Four Rivers Center for the Performing Arts (collectively, the “Project”) and
(ii) paying the costs of issuance of the Bonds, all pursuant to and in full compliance with the

on August 11, 2020 (the “Bond Ordinance”) upon the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the
members of its City Commission at a public meeting duly and regularly held, and after filing proper
notice with the State Local Debt Officer of the Commonwealth of Kentucky.
This Bond and the issue of which it forms a part is a general obligation of the City and the
full faith, credit, and taxing power of the City are pledged to the payments due hereunder. THIS
BOND IS CONTINUALLY SECURED BY THE FAITH, CREDIT, AND TAXING POWER OF

The Bonds shall not be subject to optional redemption prior to their respective maturities.
[Insert any mandatory sinking fund redemption provisions.]
At least thirty days before the redemption date of any Bonds the Paying Agent and
Registrar shall cause a notice of such redemption signed by the Paying Agent and Registrar, to be
mailed, first class, postage prepaid, to all registered owners of the Bonds to be redeemed at their
addresses as they appear on the registration books kept by the Paying Agent and Registrar, but
A-3
failure to mail any such notice shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for such redemption
of Bonds for which such notice has been sent. Each such notice shall set forth the date fixed for
redemption, the redemption price to be paid and, if less than all of the Bonds being payable by
their terms on a single date then outstanding shall be called for redemption, the distinctive number
or letters, if any, of such Bonds to be redeemed.
On the date so designated for redemption, notice having been published in the manner
under the conditions hereinabove provided and moneys for payment of the redemption price being
held in the Payment Fund by the Paying Agent and Registrar for the registered owners of the Bonds
to be redeemed, the Bonds so called for redemption shall become and be due and payable at the
redemption price provided for redemption of such Bonds on such date, interest on the Bonds so
called for redemption shall cease to accrue, and the registered owners of such Bonds shall have no
right in respect thereof except to receive payment of the redemption price thereof.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such redemption may be conditioned upon funds being
deposited with the Paying Agent and Registrar on or before the applicable redemption date in an
amount sufficient to carry out such redemption. A failure to make such deposit shall not constitute
an event of default under this Resolution and the redemption in such event shall be cancelled. If
the City knows in advance of an applicable redemption date that the necessary deposit will not
occur, the City shall notify the Paying Agent and Registrar with instructions to give notice to the
registered holders of the cancellation of the redemption.
No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of or the interest on this Bond, or
for any claim based hereon, against any officer, agent, or employee, past, present, or future, of the
City, as such, either directly or through the City, whether by virtue of any constitutional provision,
statute, or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty, or otherwise; all such
liability of such officers, agents, or employees is hereby renounced, waived, and released as a
condition of and as consideration for the issuance, execution, and acceptance of this Bond.
It is hereby certified that all acts, conditions, and things required to be done, to occur or be
performed precedent to and in the issuance of this Bond, or in the creation of the obligations of
which this Bond is evidence, have been done, have occurred, and have been performed in regular
and due form and manner as required by law; that the faith, credit, and taxing power of the City
are hereby irrevocably pledged for the prompt payment of the principal hereof and interest hereon;

statutory limitation; and that due provision has been made for the levy and collection of a tax
sufficient in amount to pay the interest on this Bond as it falls due and to provide for the redemption
of this Bond at maturity or upon earlier redemption.

WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, the parties entered into an Interlocal Cooperation Agreement on August 26,
2019 (the “Prior Agreement”) pursuant to the provisions of KRS 65.210 to 65.300 for the purpose
of establishing their respective rights and responsibilities with respect to tourism, convention, and
recreation activities within the City of Paducah and McCracken County and to further provide for
the obligations of the City and the County with respect to their levy, collection, and application of
revenues received from the City Room Tax and the County Room Tax (as defined therein)
respectively, including the use of such revenues to pay debt service on indebtedness incurred by
the City to foster tourism, convention, and recreation activities with the City of Paducah and
McCracken County; and
WHEREAS, the City desires to refinance a portion of the indebtedness reflected in the
Prior Agreement and therefore the parties wish to amend and restate the Prior Agreement
pursuant to KRS 65.210 to 65.300 to extend the requirements of the Prior Agreement regarding
the City Room Tax and the County Room Tax to financings of the indebtedness referenced
therein.
NOW, THEREFORE, IN CONSIDERATION OF THE MUTUAL COVENANTS AMONG
THE PARTIES, IT IS AGREED AS FOLLOWS:
ARTICLE I - THE BUREAU
Section 1.1 - County Withdrawal. The McCracken County Fiscal Court, by its own
unilateral action, will take official action to withdraw from the jointly-created Paducah-McCracken
County Tourist and Convention Commission, effective October 1, 2019.
Section 1.2 - City Acceptance. Upon notice of the County’s withdrawal, the City will pass
a city ordinance to accept and assume the current and existing Bureau, along with all of its assets,
liabilities, and employees, and establish it as the Paducah Convention and Visitors Bureau. The
City will repeal, amend, and/or revise its ordinances, resolutions, and all amendments and
supplements thereto governing its relationship with the Bureau to reflect its sole sponsorship
thereof, and will continue its awarding-winning and accredited work promoting recreational,
convention, and tourist activities.
- 7 -
Section 1.3 - Legal Entity. As the Bureau is already established and exists with taxpayer
identification numbers and all other corporate formalities, it is the express intent of the parties that
the status of the legal entity shall not change. The City’s revised ordinances will reflect acceptance
of the same board members, same employees, same personnel and employment benefits, same
contracts, same vendors, same assets, and same liabilities as are currently held by the Bureau.
The only changes will be that future board members will be appointed by the City only, in
compliance with state statutes, and funded by the City Room Tax, in compliance with state
statutes.
Section 1.4 - Purpose. The Bureau will continue to undertake any activity permitted by
statute, and will continue its current focus and work on all tourism-related activity in the County,
including sports and recreation.

establish the McCracken County Sports Tourism Commission pursuant to KRS 91A.350, et seq.

accreditation.

bound and be a party to this Agreement.

purposes, as defined in the Kentucky Revised Statutes. In accordance with this declaration, the
parties have entered into this Agreement pursuant to the provisions of the Interlocal Act, so that
the public policy goals herein may be realized by the parties.
Section 3.2 - Cooperation and Collaboration. It is the express intent of the parties that
the Bureau, the Sports Commission, and the Corporation shall work cooperatively and shall
collaborate on projects related to the attraction, retention, and promotion of tourism, convention,

hold quarterly meetings to discuss cooperation and collaboration. It is anticipated that the Sports
Commission and the Bureau will discuss the possibility of the Bureau initially mentoring the Sports
Commission as it begins its program of work and management. However, nothing in this
paragraph or agreement is intended to alter the Kentucky statutory framework (KRS 91A.350
through KRS 91A.390) of management of either the City’s Bureau or the County’s Sports
Commission.
Section 3.3 - City’s Current Request for Qualification. The City has advertised a

the County, the City, and the Bureau with respect to the funding of Debt Service for the Series
2010 Bonds, but to reaffirm their respective obligations in light of the parties’ actions with respect
to the Bureau reflected herein.
(b) That for so long as any Bonds remain outstanding:
(i) The County shall levy the Convention Center Room Tax and shall
remit all Convention Center Room Tax Revenues to the City to pay Debt Service for the Bonds.
The City shall deposit all Convention Center Room Tax Revenues in the Bond Payment Fund and
- 10 -
shall apply, or shall cause the Paying Agent to apply, all Convention Center Room Tax Revenues
to the payment of Debt Service for the Bonds.
(ii) If the sum of Convention Center Room Tax Revenues deposited in
the Bond Payment Fund five Business Days before any Debt Service Payment Date are

Short Title: Approve a Budget Amendment in an amount of $141,000 for Paxton Park Grounds Equipment -
J ARNDT
Category: Ordinance
Staff Work By: Mark Thompson, James Arndt
Presentation By: James Arndt
Background Information: Paxton Park Municipal Golf Course is in need of new equipment for the golf
course grounds. Bids were taken for the replacement of the equipment in March of 2020. A budget amendment
to authorize the purchase was approved at that time. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the purchase
was placed on hold until FY21. The purchase is now ready to move forward and a budget amendment is now
needed in FY21 to move $141,000 from the Fleet Trust Fund fund balance to the Fleet Trust Fund in order to
make it available for the purchase of new mowers and equipment for Paxton Park.

Short Title: Adopt an Amendment to the Sign Regulations, Sec. 126-76 (m), to allow electronic signs in the
MU and A-1 Districts - T TRACY
Category: Ordinance
Staff Work By: Josh Sommer, Tammara Tracy
Presentation By: Tammara Tracy
Background Information: The Planning Commission heard and discussed an amendment to the Sign
Regulations to allow electronic signs in the Mixed Use District and the A-1 District. A public hearing, which
included public notice as required by statute, was held on July 20, 2020 and the Planning Commission adopted
the resolution giving its final approval and favorable recommendation to the Board of Commissioners.
The proposed text change would allow electronic signs under similar standards as the B-2 district with one
additional standard proposed. The additional standard prohibits changing of the message between the hours of
11:00 pm and 5:00 am to prevent any flashing during sleep hours.

CONSIDERATIONS
In response to a recent zone change request, the prohibition of electronic signs in the Mixed
Use was requested to be modified.
In contemplating an ordinance change, the first step is to understand the context of any
change. The image below displays all of the land in the MU District. The MU District is
unique in that residential and commercial uses are contemplated and developed together from
the start. Residences are particularly sensitive to nighttime disturbances.
CASE NO. TXT2020-076
TITLE Amendment to Sign Regulations
SECTION Section 126-76(m) - Signs authorized for MU and A-1 zones.
DESCRIPTION Text change to provide for electronic signs in the MU district.
Staff Report – Text Amendment (continued) 2/2
Electronic signs can become
problematic to the long term
desirability of residential
property if not properly located
and used. In crafting the change,
staff examined how electronic
signs are regulated in other
districts and then amend what is
needed to protect residential
uses. The B-2 district which is a
general business district that is
near residential uses is what this
proposed amendment starts
with.
Staff explored how the sign
standards would relate to the
current MU context. Images that
follow show the residential uses
and their proximity to a likely
sign.
The only additional standard
proposed is to limit the changing
of the message between the
hours of 11:00 pm and 5:00 am to
prevent any flashing during
sleep hours.
RECOMMENDED MOTION
I move that the Planning Commission adopt a resolution recommending to the Board of Commissioners
that Section 126-76 of the Paducah Zoning Code be amended and adopted in accordance with Exhibit I.

Short Title: Adopt an Amendment to Sec. 126-176 of the Zoning Code to provide for an alternative rezoning
approval process, renaming of the section, expanding notice requirements, and reordering and renumbering of
the section - T TRACY
Category: Ordinance
Staff Work By: Tammara Tracy, Josh Sommer
Presentation By: Tammara Tracy
Background Information: Under KRS 100 there are two methods for a zone change (also known as a map
amendment or rezoning) to become adopted. Currently, our city code and zoning code utilize the traditional
method originally established with zoning, in general. The primary purpose of this text amendment to Section
126-176 - Amendments and Development Plans of the Paducah Zoning Code is to adopt the alternative map
amendment process as permitted in KRS 100.2111.
Several jurisdictions in the Commonwealth have adopted the alternative map amendment process, including
McCracken County, Owensboro, Henderson, Nelson County, Hopkins County and Hardin County. Based on
conversations with the Planning Directors of Henderson and Owensboro, it has been successful in those
communities.
This alternative map amendment process is faster and more business-friendly yet still provides opportunity for
additional review if requested. The alternative map process would save applicants approximately three to four
weeks. There are also efficiencies for the city in that non-controversial applications do not unnecessarily fill
the agenda of the Board of Commissioners and eliminates all the staff time necessary to facilitate that process.
The difference between the alternative map amendment procedure and the current process is that the Planning
Commission’s recommendation would automatically become final 21 days after the Planning Commission’s
decision if no one requests the application to be heard before the Board of Commissioners. The Board of
Commissioners would still have the opportunity to call up for hearing any map amendment proposal within 21
days. Furthermore, any aggrieved person could have the proposal heard before the Board of Commissioners by
simply making a written request. No justification or specific reason is required.
In addition to the alternative procedure, the opportunity was taken to clean up other issues as well including:
renaming the section; reorganizing the section, which is lengthy into smaller subsections; expanding the legal
notice parameters and the amount of time given; and to update the language in general.
On July 20, 2020, the Planning Commission considered and gave its final approval and favorable
recommendation to these amendments to Sec. 126-176 in accordance with Exhibit A included.

major plan elements;
d. Shall not change the location or cross section of any street and shall not increase the number or
change the location of street access points on arterial or collector streets;
e. May include a reduction in parking spaces only when an associated reduction in floor area or number
of dwelling units would permit a lesser number of minimum required off-street parking spaces than
required for the original development plan. To qualify as a minor amendment this reduction may not
be less than would be required by the zoning district regulations. For any case where parking in
excess of the minimum requirement was provided on the original development plan, that same
number of spaces shall be provided in excess of the minimum requirement for the proposed minor
amendment plan.
Exhibit A (continued) page 8 of 9
(2) Procedures for minor amendments.
a. Filing. To request approval of minor amendments to development plans, the developer shall file with
the city a completed application form and copies of the plan as required by the terms and conditions
of the city's application form.
ba. Review. The city shall review the plan for compliance with all applicable requirements and
ordinances and shall consult with concerned agencies as appropriate to assure proper plan review.
Upon determination that all requirements have been met, city planning staff shall submit its finding
to the Planning Commission Chair for certification. If any question arises as to compliance, however,
the plan shall be referred to the Planning Commission.
cb. Certification. Upon certification of approval by the Planning Commission Chair, city planning staff
shall have copies of the plan prepared and distributed to other public agencies at the expense of the
developer and return the original plan tracing to the developer.
(3) Content and format of minor amendments.
Minor amendments shall have the same content and format requirements as the original development
plan, except that:
a. The title shall indicate the plan as a minor amendment;
b. A note shall be added listing the exact nature of the requested changes;
c. The following will shall be the required language for the Planning Commission Chair's certification
affixed to the plans: "I do hereby certify that this development plan amendment complies with
Zoning Ordinance provisions regarding amendments to development plans."
d. Owners of interest will shall complete a certification to be signed and witnessed as follows: "I (We)
do hereby certify that I am (we are) the only owner(s) of the property shown hereon and do adopt
this as my (our) development plan for the property," which will shall be required language for all
property and affixed to the plans.
(ik) Relationship to subdivision regulations.
The relationships between development plans and the subdivision regulations are established as follows:
(1) Applicability of subdivision regulations.
Although development plans are not subdivision plats, quite often the development plan does indicate a
need or intent to subdivide property. For any such development plan, the design and improvement
standards contained within the subdivision regulations shall be applied to proposals contained on the
development plan.
(2) Combining plans.
Development plans and preliminary subdivision plats may be combined. It is recognized that for certain
development situations it can be advantageous to both the applicant and the Planning Commission to
combine requirements for development plans and preliminary subdivision plats in order to streamline
the development approval process while not reducing the quality of the review. The following provisions
shall be applicable to any such combined plan:
a. The developer shall meet with city planning staff no later than five working days in advance of the
filing deadline to discuss the appropriateness of filing a combined plat.
Exhibit A (continued) page 9 of 9
b. The plan shall show all information required for a development plan (preliminary or final as
appropriate) and all information required for a preliminary subdivision plat as set forth in the
subdivision regulations.
(3) Substitution of plans.
A preliminary or final subdivision plat may be substituted for development plans required in conjunction
with map amendment requests. It is recognized that in certain cases a preliminary or final subdivision
plat would be as appropriate, or more appropriate, to be considered in conjunction with a map
amendment request than would a development plan. Generally, such situations involve developments
where placement of structures will be tightly controlled by the streets, lot pattern, requirements for
placement of structures within the zone and where the applicant sees fit to have plans prepared at the
required level of detail for subdivision plats prior to receiving a zone change approval. When an applicant
is required to provide a development plan in conjunction with a zoning map amendment request, the
applicant may file a subdivision plat in place of the development plan, if deemed appropriate by the city.
In any disputed case, the city shall make the final judgment as to whether a development plan or a
subdivision plat is required.
(4) Administration. The City Manager shall designate the department and/or city officer responsible for the
administration of this section other than those actions and procedures that specifically require Planning
Commission or the Chair of the Planning Commission review, action or signature. 13
(5) Enforcement. The responsibilities of enforcement of this section shall be as designated by the City Manager. 14

principal structure and accessory structures for a single-family dwelling, a duplex dwelling, a triplex
dwelling or a four-plex dwelling on a single lot or ownership parcel. As a further condition to the
granting of a zoning change, the Planning Commission shall require that substantial construction be
initiated within two years following the enactment of the map amendment, provided that such
zoning change shall not revert to its original designation unless there has been a public hearing. The
development plan shall be a continuing condition for the area rezoned unless amended as required
herein;

(2) Plans defined. For purposes of this subsection (h) and the plans required herein, the following definitions
shall apply:
a. Sketch plan. This plan will be used to determine the essential graphic and written materials required
for a specific map amendment and those specific actions, such as map amendments, variances or
conditional use permits that may be requested of the Planning Commission. The sketch plan may be
conceptual but should indicate any site or surrounding features or conditions that may affect the
proposed development or surrounding properties or rights-of-way, the proposed buildings, access
points, parking and loading areas, landscaping and screening areas, existing and proposed utilities,
proposed location for solid waste storage and access to same, and any other conditions on the site
or surrounding properties or proposed development features which may affect the development of
the site or surrounding properties or rights-of-way. The sketch plan does not have to be detailed or
highly finished drawings, but should address the issues and conditions that may be essential to the
development.
12 Reworded for clarity.
Final (Non-marked up) version of Exhibit A (continued) page 4 of 8

Commission. I (We) furthermore understand that buildings permits for construction can only be
issued following this plan and that amendments to the plan can be made only by official
Commission action";
16. A preliminary development plan certification shall be signed by the Chairman if and when the
plan is fully approved, as follows: "I hereby certify that the Development Plan shown hereon has
been found to comply with the Zoning Ordinance Regulation for the City of Paducah, Kentucky,
with the exception of such variances or other condition of approval, if any, as are noted hereon
or in the Minutes of the City Planning Commission and that it has been approved as the official
plan."
b. Contents of final development plan. A final development plan shall contain all information as
required for preliminary development plans under the sections above, except that the plan
information shall be of an exact nature, rather than approximate or general.
(i) Development plan procedures.
(1) Pre-application conference.
a. Prior to any acceptance of a formal application for an amendment, the applicant shall meet
informally with planning staff to determine the following:

required submission of materials; and
5. An explanation of the amendment process.
b. At the time of the meeting with the planning staff, the applicant should present a sketch plan, as
outlined in subsection (h)(2)a of this section.
(3) Review. The planning staff shall send the development plan to concerned agencies and interests for their
respective technical review. If necessary, or requested by the applicant, the interested parties and
Final (Non-marked up) version of Exhibit A (continued) page 6 of 8
technical review bodies may meet together to resolve, if possible, issues and difficulties associated with
the development proposal. These meetings will be open to the public.
(4) Planning Commission action. No development plan will be considered for Commission action until the
appropriate review agencies or and public interests have reviewed the plan.
(5) The Commission may pursue the following action:
a. Approval. The development plan is ready for certification as presented.
b. Conditional approval. The development plan will be certified when the applicant has complied
with the conditions of approval set forth in the Commission's action on the development plan.
c. Disapproval. The development plan has been disapproved by the Planning Commission. To
request new review and action, the applicant must file a new application and development plan.
d. Continuance. In circumstances where further resolution is required, the Commission may
continue final action on the development plan until further information is ascertained or
resolution of conflicts occurs.
(6) Final development plan procedures.
a. Only after the Planning Commission has approved the preliminary development plan, and the
appropriate zoning district has been approved by the Board of Commissioners if required; then
the applicant must present a final development plan as set forth in subsection (h) (2) (c) prior to
the issuance of any building permits. The final development plan must be reviewed to ensure
that:
1. The plan is in compliance with the preliminary development plan.
2. The plan is in compliance with the comprehensive plan, the Zoning Code, other city
ordinances, regulations or policies, and all other applicable laws and regulations.
3. Where appropriate, the review agencies may assess the document and forward their
comments to the city prior to final development plan approval.
4. When all final zoning or annexation plans are submitted the applicant shall also make a
digital submission that complies with the regulations of Chapter 102 Section 39 (d) of
the Code of Ordinances of the City of Paducah.
b. If the final development plan complies with this subsection, the Planning Commission Chair will
certify on the face of the plan that all requirements and applicable conditions have been
satisfied.
(j) Amendments to development plans.
Amendments to approved development plans can be made only by official Planning Commission action
following a public hearing. Content, format and procedures shall be the same as for the original submission.
However, amendments which fully meet the requirements set forth hereinafter as minor amendments shall
be approved and certified by the Zoning Administrator without further action by the Planning Commission.
(1) Minor amendments defined.
Minor amendments are intended to expedite approval in those situations where amendments are of
minor significance and generally relate to the shifting of previously approved spaces. Such amendments:
Final (Non-marked up) version of Exhibit A (continued) page 7 of 8
a. Shall not decrease the overall land area in wards or other open spaces;
b. Shall not increase building ground area coverage, floor area, or height, or increase the number of
dwelling units;
c. May increase building ground area coverage for accessory buildings; or principal buildings if
additions are less than ten percent and additional parking can be provided without disruption to
major plan elements;
d. Shall not change the location or cross section of any street and shall not increase the number or
change the location of street access points on arterial or collector streets;
e. May include a reduction in parking spaces only when an associated reduction in floor area or number
of dwelling units would permit a lesser number of minimum required off-street parking spaces than
required for the original development plan. To qualify as a minor amendment this reduction may not
be less than would be required by the zoning district regulations. For any case where parking in
excess of the minimum requirement was provided on the original development plan, that same
number of spaces shall be provided in excess of the minimum requirement for the proposed minor
amendment plan.
(2) Procedures for minor amendments.
a. Review. The city shall review the plan for compliance with all applicable requirements and
ordinances and shall consult with concerned agencies as appropriate to assure proper plan review.
Upon determination that all requirements have been met, planning staff shall submit its finding to
the Planning Commission Chair for certification. If any question arises as to compliance, however, the
plan shall be referred to the Planning Commission.
b. Certification. Upon certification of approval by the Planning Commission Chair, planning staff shall
have copies of the plan prepared and distributed to other public agencies at the expense of the
developer and return the original plan tracing to the developer.
(3) Content and format of minor amendments.
Minor amendments shall have the same content and format requirements as the original development
plan, except that:
a. The title shall indicate the plan as a minor amendment;
b. A note shall be added listing the exact nature of the requested changes;
c. The following shall be the required language for the Planning Commission Chair's certification affixed
to the plans: "I do hereby certify that this development plan amendment complies with Zoning
Ordinance provisions regarding amendments to development plans."
d. Owners of interest shall complete a certification to be signed and witnessed as follows: "I (We) do
hereby certify that I am (we are) the only owner(s) of the property shown hereon and do adopt this
as my (our) development plan for the property," which shall be required language for all property
and affixed to the plans.
(k) Relationship to subdivision regulations.
The relationships between development plans and the subdivision regulations are established as follows:
(1) Applicability of subdivision regulations.
Final (Non-marked up) version of Exhibit A (continued) page 8 of 8
Although development plans are not subdivision plats, quite often the development plan does indicate a
need or intent to subdivide property. For any such development plan, the design and improvement
standards contained within the subdivision regulations shall be applied to proposals contained on the
development plan.
(2) Combining plans.
Development plans and preliminary subdivision plats may be combined. It is recognized that for certain
development situations it can be advantageous to both the applicant and the Planning Commission to
combine requirements for development plans and preliminary subdivision plats in order to streamline
the development approval process while not reducing the quality of the review. The following provisions
shall be applicable to any such combined plan:
a. The developer shall meet with planning staff no later than five working days in advance of the filing
deadline to discuss the appropriateness of filing a combined plat.
b. The plan shall show all information required for a development plan (preliminary or final as
appropriate) and all information required for a preliminary subdivision plat as set forth in the
subdivision regulations.
(3) Substitution of plans.
A preliminary or final subdivision plat may be substituted for development plans required in conjunction
with map amendment requests. It is recognized that in certain cases a preliminary or final subdivision
plat would be as appropriate, or more appropriate, to be considered in conjunction with a map
amendment request than would a development plan. Generally, such situations involve developments
where placement of structures will be tightly controlled by the streets, lot pattern, requirements for
placement of structures within the zone and where the applicant sees fit to have plans prepared at the
required level of detail for subdivision plats prior to receiving a zone change approval. When an applicant
is required to provide a development plan in conjunction with a zoning map amendment request, the
applicant may file a subdivision plat in place of the development plan, if deemed appropriate by the city.
In any disputed case, the city shall make the final judgment as to whether a development plan or a
subdivision plat is required.

STAFF REPORT
PADUCAH PLANNING COMMISSION
TXT
CONSIDERATIONS
Under KRS 100 there are two methods for a zone change (also known as a map amendment or
rezoning) to become adopted. Currently, our city code and zoning code utilize the traditional
method originally established with zoning, in general. The primary purpose of this text
amendment to Section 126-176 - Amendments and Development Plans of the Paducah Zoning
Ordinance is to adopt the alternative map amendment process as permitted in KRS 100.2111.
Several jurisdictions in the Commonwealth have adopted the alternative map amendment
process, including McCracken County, Owensboro, Henderson, Nelson County, Hopkins
County and Hardin County. Based on conversations with the Planning Directors of
Henderson and Owensboro, it has been successful in those communities.
This alternative map amendment process is faster and more business-friendly yet still provides
opportunity for additional review if requested. The alternative map process would save
applicants approximately three to four weeks. There are also efficiencies for the city in that
non-controversial applications do not unnecessarily fill the agenda of the Board of
Commissioners and eliminates all the staff time necessary to facilitate that process.
STATUTORY REQUIREMENTS KRS 100.2111
The difference between the alternative map amendment procedure and the current operation
is that the Planning Commission’s recommendation would automatically become final 21 days
after the Planning Commission’s decision if no one requests the application to be heard before
the Board of Commissioners. The Board of Commissioners would still have the opportunity to
call up for hearing any map amendment proposal within 21 days. Furthermore, any aggrieved

TITLE Alternative Rezoning Procedure
SECTION Section 126-176. - Amendments and Development Plans.
DESCRIPTION Text change to provide for:
Rename the section “Planning Commission”
Clarify and enhance Legal Notice requirements

Clean up the organization of the section for readability
Correct grammar, citations and references to Board of Commissioners,

Staff Report – Text Amendment (continued) 2/2
person could have the proposal heard before the Board of Commissioners by simply making a
written request. No justification or specific reason is required.
OTHER CHANGES PROPOSED TO SEC. 126-176
Text amendments are not and ideally should not be a undertaken superfluously, since the
application ripples through the zoning code and nonconformities are triggered and must be
tracked. Consequently, when a section is opened up, it is most efficient to take the opportunity
to clean-up other issues as well.
Section 126-176 pertains to the activities, considerations and processes of the Planning
Commission. The current name of the section is vague and makes it difficult to find the
substantial elements contained in the section. Therefore, it is proposed that the section be
called Section 126-176 – Planning Commission, similar to Section 126-173 – Board of Adjustment.
Public notice requirements are minimally established by KRS 100.211 and 212:
14 days before the hearing, sign is posted on-site and legal notice is mailed;
Mailed legal notice goes to adjoining property owners.
More expansive legal notice may be required by a local jurisdiction. Currently, property
owners within 200’of any property proposed for a zone change is required. No requirement is
articulated for other applications.
Since local mail goes to Evansville for processing, a nearby property owner may not receive
the notice until as late as one week before the scheduled hearing. This amount of time is not
conducive for public participation, particularly since there is no automatic way to secure a
continuance. For the past year as a pilot program, staff has been mailing notices out 20 days in
advance of a hearing and supports codifying the added time.
The reorganization of the section is proposed; pulling common but important requirements
(e.g. Public notice, Applications, Refiling) into their own subsection. This makes it easier to
find and reference, as opposed to the current location buried in the procedural steps.
Other changes include using the proper titles such as Board of Commissioners instead of City
Commission and distinguishing planning staff. The Administration and enforcement
subsections were deleted since the issue is covered more completely by Sec. 126-32.
RECOMMENDED MOTION
I move that the Planning Commission adopt a resolution recommending to the Board of Commissioners
that Section 126-176 of the Paducah Zoning Code be amended and adopted in accordance with Exhibit
A.

(a) Intent.
The intent of this section is to provide guidance for the Zoning Code amendment
processes, including text and map amendments. It shall also be the intent of this
section to guide various approval processes and the use of development plans, which
may be used for a variety of planning and zoning processes, including map
amendments. The Planning Commission in its obligation to promote the public
health, safety and general well-being shall consider, but not be limited to, the
following in its [amendatory and development plan] deliberative considerations:

requests initiated by the Planning Commission or Board of Commissioners, or the
Planning Commission grants unanimous permission to resubmit sooner.
(be) [Initiation and actions] Procedures required for [amendment] zone change
(rezoning).
(1) A petition for a map amendment (also referred to as a zone change or rezoning)
[This Zoning Code, including both the text and the zoning map, may be
amended, supplemented, changed, modified or repealed. A proposal for
amendment to any zoning regulation] may originate with the Planning

(df) Zone Change (rezoning) - Findings required for granting amendment.
In accordance with KRS 100.213, to approve any zone change (rezoning), [Before
any map amendment is granted,] the Planning Commission must find that the map
amendment is in agreement with the Comprehensive Plan, or, in the absence of such
a finding, that [one or more of the following apply and such findings shall be
recorded in the minutes and records of the Planning Commission and City
Commission]:
(1) [That] the original zoning classification given to the property was inappropriate or
improper;
(2) [That] there have been major changes of an economic, physical or social nature
within the area involved which were not anticipated in the Comprehensive Plan
and which have substantially altered the basic character of the area.
The finding of fact shall be recorded in the minutes and maintained in the records.
(eg) Variances and conditional use permits.
The Planning Commission may hear and finally decide applications for variances or
conditional use permits pertaining to the same property when filed and scheduled to be
heard with a proposed development plan approval application or [requires] a map
amendment application. [and one or more variances or conditional use permits.] The
Planning Commission shall assume all powers and duties otherwise exercised by the
Board of Adjustment pursuant to KRS Ch. 100 and this Zoning Code. The applicant
for the map amendment may elect to have any variances or conditional use permits for
the same development to be heard and finally decided by the Planning Commission at
the same public hearing set [for the map amendment], or by the Board of Adjustment
as otherwise provided for by KRS Ch. 100 and this Zoning Code.
(fh) Development plan requirements.
(1) When required. A preliminary development plan shall be required in the following instances:
a. The Planning Commission, as a condition to the granting of any zoning
change, shall require the submission of a development plan which, where
agreed upon, shall be followed; except for a single principal structure and
accessory structures for a single-family dwelling, a duplex dwelling, a triplex
dwelling or a four-plex dwelling on a single lot or ownership parcel. As a
further condition to the granting of a zoning change, the Planning
Commission shall require that substantial construction be initiated within two
years following the enactment of the map amendment, provided that such
zoning change shall not revert to its original designation unless there has been
a public hearing. The development plan shall be a continuing condition for the
area rezoned unless amended as required herein;

(2) Plans defined. For purposes of this subsection [f] (h) and the plans
required herein, the following definitions shall apply:
a. Sketch plan. This plan will be used to determine the essential graphic and
written materials required for a specific map amendment and those specific
actions, such as map amendments, variances or conditional use permits that
may be requested of the Planning Commission. The sketch plan may be
conceptual but should indicate any site or surrounding features or conditions
that may affect the proposed development or surrounding properties or rights-
of-way, the proposed buildings, access points, parking and loading areas,
landscaping and screening areas, existing and proposed utilities, proposed
location for solid waste storage and access to same, and any other conditions
on the site or surrounding properties or proposed development features which
may affect the development of the site or surrounding properties or rights-of-
way. The sketch plan does not have to be detailed or highly finished drawings,
but should address the issues and conditions that may be essential to the
development.
b. Preliminary development plan. This plan shall be that plan adopted by the
Planning Commission when the Planning Commission favorably
recommends a map amendment to the City Commission. The preliminary
development plan shall include that information as determined in the pre-
application conference. No building permits shall be issued based upon a
preliminary development plan.
c. Final development plan. This plan is, in effect, a final site plan with that
level of detail as may be required for obtaining those permits and approvals
necessary for construction. It shall include all information required as set
forth hereinafter and as necessary for the review of the proposed
development and its compliance with any applicable law or regulation,
including any previously approved preliminary development plan.
(3) Content and format of development plans. All development plans shall be
prepared on mylar or other material capable of clear reproduction. Plans shall be
legible and of a size and scale (generally not exceeding 1"-100') which enables
clear presentation of required information. Required plan information shall be as
follows:
a. Contents of preliminary development plan. A preliminary
development plan shall contain the following minimum information:
1. A title block containing the plan name, development plan type
(preliminary or final), name and address of applicant, developer and plan

sufficient detail to generally describe the lay of the land. This requirement
may be waived by the city where topographic conditions and features are
found not to be necessary to the required development plan reviews and
actions;
5. Location, arrangement, and approximate dimensions of existing and
proposed driveways, walkways and parking areas, and arrangement of
spaces, dumpster pads, points of ingress and egress, and other vehicular
and pedestrian rights-of-way;
6. Location and typical profiles and cross-sections of any proposed or
existing streets or deceleration lanes (when deemed necessary) within
or abutting the subject property. This requirement may be waived
subject to a condition regarding same on the face of the development
plan;
7. Screening, landscaping, buffering, recreational and other open spaces;
8. Approximate size, location, height, floor area, area arrangement, and
use of proposed and existing buildings and signs;
9. Approximate location of lot lines for projects anticipated to involve land
subdivision;

the requirements set forth hereinafter as minor amendments shall be approved and
certified by the Zoning Administrator [city] without further action by the Planning
Commission.
(1) Minor amendments defined.
Minor amendments are intended to expedite approval in those situations where
amendments are of minor significance and generally relate to the shifting of
previously approved spaces. Such amendments:
a. Shall not decrease the overall land area in wards or other open spaces;
b. Shall not increase building ground area coverage, floor area, or height, or
increase the number of dwelling units;
c. May increase building ground area coverage for accessory buildings; or
principal buildings if additions are less than ten percent and additional
parking can be provided without disruption to major plan elements;
d. Shall not change the location or cross section of any street and shall not
increase the number or change the location of street access points on
arterial or collector streets;
e. May include a reduction in parking spaces only when an associated reduction
in floor area or number of dwelling units would permit a lesser number of
minimum required off-street parking spaces than required for the original
development plan. To qualify as a minor amendment this reduction may not be
less than would be required by the zoning district regulations. For any case
where parking in excess of the minimum requirement was provided on the
original development plan, that same number of spaces shall be provided in
excess of the minimum requirement for the proposed minor amendment plan.
(2) Procedures for minor amendments.
a. [Filing. To request approval of minor amendments to development plans, the
developer shall file with the city a completed application form and copies of the
plan as required by the terms and conditions of the city's application form.]
ba. Review. The city shall review the plan for compliance with all applicable
requirements and ordinances and shall consult with concerned agencies as
appropriate to assure proper plan review. Upon determination that all
requirements have been met, [city] planning staff shall submit its finding to
the Planning Commission Chair for certification. If any question arises as to
compliance, however, the plan shall be referred to the Planning Commission.
cb. Certification. Upon certification of approval by the Planning Commission
Chair, [city] planning staff shall have copies of the plan prepared and
distributed to other public agencies at the expense of the developer and return
the original plan tracing to the developer.
(3) Content and format of minor amendments.
Minor amendments shall have the same content and format requirements as the
original development plan, except that:
a. The title shall indicate the plan as a minor amendment;
b. A note shall be added listing the exact nature of the requested changes;
c. The following [will] shall be the required language for the Planning
Commission Chair's certification affixed to the plans: "I do hereby certify
that this development plan amendment complies with Zoning Ordinance
provisions regarding amendments to development plans."
d. Owners of interest [will] shall complete a certification to be signed and
witnessed as follows: "I (We) do hereby certify that I am (we are) the only
owner(s) of the property shown hereon and do adopt this as my (our)
development plan for the property," which [will] shall be required language
for all property and affixed to the plans.
(ik) Relationship to subdivision regulations.
The relationships between development plans and the subdivision regulations are established as follows:
(1) Applicability of subdivision regulations.
Although development plans are not subdivision plats, quite often the
development plan does indicate a need or intent to subdivide property. For any
such development plan, the design and improvement standards contained within
the subdivision regulations shall be applied to proposals contained on the
development plan.
(2) Combining plans.
Development plans and preliminary subdivision plats may be combined. It is
recognized that for certain development situations it can be advantageous to both
the applicant and the Planning Commission to combine requirements for
development plans and preliminary subdivision plats in order to streamline the
development approval process while not reducing the quality of the review. The
following provisions shall be applicable to any such combined plan:
a. The developer shall meet with [city] planning staff no later than five
working days in advance of the filing deadline to discuss the
appropriateness of filing a combined plat.
b. The plan shall show all information required for a development plan
(preliminary or final as appropriate) and all information required for a
preliminary subdivision plat as set forth in the subdivision regulations.
(3) Substitution of plans.
A preliminary or final subdivision plat may be substituted for development plans
required in conjunction with map amendment requests. It is recognized that in
certain cases a preliminary or final subdivision plat would be as appropriate, or
more appropriate, to be considered in conjunction with a map amendment request
than would a development plan. Generally, such situations involve developments
where placement of structures will be tightly controlled by the streets, lot pattern,
requirements for placement of structures within the zone and where the applicant
sees fit to have plans prepared at the required level of detail for subdivision plats
prior to receiving a zone change approval. When an applicant is required to
provide a development plan in conjunction with a zoning map amendment request,
the applicant may file a subdivision plat in place of the development plan, if
deemed appropriate by the city. In any disputed case, the city shall make the final
judgment as to whether a development plan or a subdivision plat is required.
(4) [Administration. The City Manager shall designate the department and/or city
officer responsible for the administration of this section other than those actions
and procedures that specifically require Planning Commission or the Chair of the
Planning Commission review, action or signature.
(5) Enforcement. The responsibilities of enforcement of this section shall be as designated by
the City Manager. ]
SECTION 2. That if any section, paragraph or provision of this Ordinance shall
be found to be inoperative, ineffective or invalid for any cause, the deficiency or invalidity of
such section, paragraph or provision shall not affect any other section, paragraph or provision
hereof, it being the purpose and intent of this Ordinance to make each and every section,
paragraph, an provision hereof separable from all other sections, paragraphs and provisions.
SECTION 3. This ordinance shall be read on two separate days and will become
effective upon summary publication pursuant to KRS Chapter 424.

workers compensation insurance, employers’ liability insurance, business automobile
liability insurance and commercial general liability insurance, all of which shall comport
with generally accepted industry standards. Developer shall be solely responsible for
supervising the work and material provided by the contractors and subcontractors, and shall

action that relate to or arise from the development and construction of the Public Facilities,

contractors and the subcontractors who perform the construction work, irrespective of any
negligence on the part of the City; provided, however, that the Developer shall not be
obligated to provide any indemnity for a claim that is solely attributable to the negligence
and/or willful misconduct of the City. This indemnity shall remain in full force and effect
