of the presentation material can be found in the minute file.
“Presentation of BUILD Grant Excursion Boat Landing Concept Drawings
City Engineer Rick Murphy presented to the Paducah Board of Commissioners concept
drawings for the riverboat boat landing facility that would be funded by the BUILD
grant. Last November, the City received news that we would be receiving $10.4 million
in Better Utilizing Investments to Leverage Development (BUILD) funds. The City’s
approved application includes building a riverboat excursion pier and plaza. The
concept drawings presented at the meeting show the riverboat landing facility parallel to
the riverfront. This fixed construction facility would provide a safer and easier docking
area as we continue to grow our tourism economy as a destination. Murphy also showed
artistic concepts for the two concrete foundations located along the riverfront. Those
structures are remnants of a conveyor system to offload materials from barges. To view
BUILD grant information including the concept drawings, visit

Greater Paducah Economic Development (GPED) Update
Greater Paducah Economic Development’s President/CEO Bruce Wilcox updated the
Paducah Board of Commissioners on GPED’s activities since mid-June. Wilcox
outlined several of GPED’s accomplishments including the negotiations for the sale of
the Genova building, the installation of new signage at Industrial Park West, the
brokerage and option agreements for several properties at the Triple Rail site,
discussions with the Riverport regarding container-on-barge initiatives, the launch of a
new website, and work with local partners including the Industrial Development
Authority and Sprocket. Wilcox says GPED is working with 20 projects in various
stages of development.
October 13, 2020
Employee Benefit Plans Briefing
Benefits Advisor DJ Story with Peel & Holland provided an overview of the City of
Paducah’s 2021 health insurance plan through Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield as the
City’s third-party administrator. Those who participate in the City’s health plan will
have no change to their health insurance premiums as compared to this current
year. The City has maintained the same health insurance premium rates for nine
consecutive years which is quite unusual and an indication of the good management of
the health plan and the City’s dedication to employee wellness. The City of Paducah
has a self-insured health insurance plan which means the premiums paid into the plan
by the employees are used to pay the claims. Story commended the City for focusing
on health and wellness and being able to keep the rates flat. Story said, “What the City
has been able to do is remarkable. It shows a financial focus on wellness.””
CONSENT AGENDA
Mayor Harless asked if the Board wanted any items on the Consent Agenda removed for separate
consideration. There were no items removed. Mayor Harless asked the City Clerk to read the items on
the Consent Agenda.

Short Title: Transfer of 432 Broadway to PGLM, Inc. for $7,500.00 - T TRACY
Category: Municipal Order
Staff Work By: Katie Axt
Presentation By: Tammara Tracy
Background Information: On July 16, 2015, the previous owner of the site relinquished ownership of the
site in lieu of razing the commercial building on the site. The city demolished the building due to the extreme
public safety concerns arising from the long-term neglect by the previous owner.
The city attempted to redevelop the site into a park however construction costs were projected to be far above
available funds; thus the site remains in its current vacant status.
Earlier this year PGJM, LLC, acquired 428-430 Broadway. PGJM, LLC, plans to redevelop the historic
Goodman building into a 5-room boutique hotel, event center, retail, and restaurant space. To support the
redevelopment and activity proposed in this adjacent historic building, they propose to purchase this vacant lot.
Under this agreement, PGJM, LLC, would construct outdoor dining, seating, and entertainment space. This
project will create 20 full time jobs.
PGJM, LLC, currently own and operate Hotel 1857, the Johnson Bar, Paducah Axe, and formerly Tribeca and
JPs. This project is an expansion of their hospitality business and guest services offered through the Hotel
1857.
The developer commits to spend approximately $3 million on the redevelopment of 428-430 Broadway and the
construction of the outdoor space at 432 Broadway. In exchange for this agreement to develop these sites as
proposed, the City would sell 432 Broadway to them for $7,500.
An additional condition of this agreement is that PGJM, LLC, would plant one overstory tree on 432
Broadway, in accordance with specifications of the International Society of Arboriculture.
Transfer of the property would be in accordance with KRS 82.083(4)(b) which indicates that “real property
may be transferred, with or without compensation, for economic development purposes, which shall include
but not be limited to real property transfers for the elimination of blight.”

I. Executive Summary I Project Description
Owners Jorge Martinez a.nd Paul Gourieux arc proud to build on thcit cw:rent base of buainesses in
downtown Paducah through thcit restoration of lle GoodmtlD Builrling.
Mt. Martinez and Mt. Gourieux are the owners of three successful downtown projects; Paducah Axe
(opened in March of2020), The Johnson Bar (openedinJune of2019) and The 1857 Hotel
The 1857 Hotel (opened in April of 2016) has garnered local, state and national attention in its four years of
operation. Martinez & GourieWI: believe that interest in the historic dist:cict of downtown Paducah is just
bq~foning to be realized and are confident that the restotation of The Goodman Building will be an
additional anchor to this continued revitalization.
While the bulk of restotation projects in downtown are based north of 3111 Street, the partners have longed
believed that there is ample growth opportunity along Broadway &om 4Jb to 7'4l StreetB. Martinez /Gourieus
envision that the .restom.tion & .reopening of The Goodman Building may be a subsmntial aid in spatking new
interest in this section of the historic district. As continued progress is made to restore the Columbia
Theater, Martinez & Goutiem view the Goodman Buildicg -and the comer of 511i & Broadway -as a
strategic anchor to further restoration & development in this section of downtown.
With the oveiwhelming success of thcit 1857 I lotd, Martinez & Gouricu.x plan a similar project with
enhanced new offerings at the restored Goodman Building site. The addition of the empty lot at 432
Broadway will allow further expansion to include an extmsive outdoor dining area. The scope of the project
is as follows:
• Goodman Building, 3nt Floor -Five (5) luxurious hotel rooms
• Goodman Bui]ding, 2ad Floor -Event Center, grand hotel lobby with registration area, public
bathrooms, glass enclosed lobby bat with deckjng that extends to the covered uea of outdoor dining
section at 432 Broadway
• Goodman Building, 1 • Floor I ground level -Commercial remil space in bay # 1, restaurant I bar in
bay #2 with extensive indoor & outdoor seating and a complete catering kitchen to service events on
level2
• Empty lot at 432 B.toadway-Outdoor dining atca with covered & uncovered sections of seating.
This area will be landscaped to include new trees, shrubbery and an uray of fresh flowcrs.

IV. Construction Schedule
The owncis are very pleased to relay that substmtial wotk baa already begun at 428 -430 Broadway to ensure
the b~s structunl integrity. Fallowing their putchasc of the property, the owners undertook a very
aggressive roof stabilization project to secure the building and prevent further damage from exten&ive water
intrusion. This initiative is ongoing and has tcsulted in over $12,500 of peraooal funding having been
invested in the property to date.
Regrettably, the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic (and tesulting govemmental closures) has resulted in a
downtu.m in the owner's business revenue. & a teault, Martinez I Gourieux have elccred to focus their
funding to address the buildings' structural concerns in the short term. The partners anticipate that the
overall rehabilitation project will begin in earnest 111idye1U 2021.
Page 6 of7
V. Capital Budget
& the Commission may be awatc, Martinez I Gourieux are fortunate to have completed multiple
rehabilitation projects (including the Tr:ibeca Buildings, The 1857 Hotel and The J obnson Bar) in the historic
section of downtown Paducah. These project sites were of very similar size and in similar states of disttpair
as 428-430 Broadway (I'he Goodman Building).
Based 011 their construction expeticnce with similar pmjects, Martinez I Gowieux have factored an estimated
comtructioo budget of~ $2. 7 Million and $3.15 Million. The owners are fortunate to have a well-
established bgnking .relationship that will aid in thla funding of the project.
