Bray presided. Upon call of the roll by the City Clerk, Lindsay Parish, the following answered to
their names: Commissioners Guess, Henderson, Smith, Wilson, and Mayor Bray (5).
INVOCATION

PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE
Mayor Bray led the pledge.
PROCLAMATION
Mayor Bray presented a proclamation to Vanessa Dallas, Family & Partnership Services
Liaison with Kentucky Organ Donor Affiliates, recognizing April as "National Donate Life"

MAYOR'S REMARKS
Communication Manager Pam Spencer offered the following summary:
Discussion of Terrace Hills Preliminary Subdivision Plat
Mayor Bray and the Board discussed the role of the City Commission and the Planning Commission
regarding approval of subdivisions. This topic surfaced with the February public hearing and
approval of a preliminary subdivision plat by the Planning Commission of a proposed subdivision
called Terrace Hills on Pecan Drive. Mayor Bray stated that the Planning Commission has the legal
authority to approve a proposed subdivision pursuant to KRS 100.277. In other words, the Planning
Commission is acting as an agent of the City Commission in the approval process. There is case law
that supports approving a proposed subdivision if it conforms with zoning and subdivision
regulations. If a subdivision developer meets the regulations and addresses stormwater and erosion
control, the Planning Commission is obligated to approve a preliminary plat. Mayor Bray said that
in this situation, the developer performed everything as required in the subdivision process.
Convention Center Roof Discussion
In response to comments made at last night's McCracken County Fiscal Court meeting regarding
the needed repairs to the Convention Center's deteriorated roof, Mayor Bray said the City is
researching the use of the transient room tax and how previous repair and improvement projects on
the Convention Centers were funded. Mayor Bray also stated it is the City's understanding that the
2% transient room tax for the Convention Center is to support debt for capital improvement projects
and that ceasing that practice is a change in direction. City Manager Daron Jordan emphasized that
the transient room tax is collected primarily from visitors to the area and that the funds are project
dollars, not City or County dollars. Plans are moving forward on addressing the needed repairs to
this important City and County asset with an expectation that the Convention Center roof will be
replaced this summer.
McCracken County Stage Assembly
Another topic that was discussed at Monday's McCracken County Fiscal Court meeting involved
the County's stage that is used for various special events. The County owns the stage and charges
March 28, 2023
organizations a rental fee for its use. In the past, the City has assisted in the assembly of the stage
for city -sponsored events. A decision has been made to not use City employees on the County's
stage since the City is working to reduce liability and workers' compensation claims and increase
internal departmental efficiencies.
CONSENT AGENDA
Mayor Bray asked if the Board wanted any items on the Consent Agenda removed for separate
consideration. No items were removed for separate consideration. Mayor Bray asked the City Clerk
to read the items on the Consent Agenda.

Background Information: The EPA is requesting applications for projects that support and/or create model
state, tribal, local, and territorial government activities that lead to measurable environmental or public health
results in communities disproportionately burdened by environmental harms and risks. These projects will help
transform disadvantaged and underserved communities into healthy, thriving communities capable of
addressing the environmental and public health challenges they have historically faced, as well as current and
future challenges.
The City of Paducah is proposing a three-year, $1 million project with three primary components — capacity
building and community engagement, reducing indoor toxins and air pollution, and improving community
health. The City will partner with Paducah Alliance of Neighbors, Nehemiah Christian Church, KY Care
Health Center, Purchase District Health Department, Baptist Health Paducah, and the Southside Steering
Committee as the Advisory Board for this program. By the end of the grant period, at least 20 homes will
receive renovations and/or remediation services to improve indoor air quality, disaster resilience, and energy
efficiency.

Background Information: Summary: Approve Contract Modification #1 for a decrease in scope in the
Construction Contract with Dredge America, Inc due to a difference in the amount of material dredged for a
change of ($1,647.00).
Background: On April 24, 2020, the President signed a major disaster declaration, FEMA -4540 -DR -KY, for
the 2020 Flooding and Severe Weather Events from February 2, 2020, through February 29, 2020. As a result,
the City of Paducah applied for and received Disaster Relief Funding to remove sediment built up along the
Riverfront at the Transient Dock. FEMA Public Assistance funds are funded at 90% Federal Share, 4.2% State
Share & 5.8% City Share.
On October 25, 2022, the Board of Commissioners approved Municipal Order 2668 for a Construction Contract
for $995,000.00 with Dredge America, Inc for approximately 60,000 cubic yards of hydraulic dredging. As a
result, the City has obtained the necessary permits to dredge up to 60,000 cubic yards of sediment per year
using deep water disposal. During the dredging contract, the exact amount of sedimentation dredged was
measured by a bathymetric survey at 59,817.4 cubic yards for a total contract amount of $993,353.00.

The Mapping Network
HYDROGRAPHIC SURVEY EQUIPMENT AND PROCEDURES
The Mapping Network conducted a post -dredge hydrographic survey for the dredge cut and disposal
areas. The survey was conducted to determine depths for the post -dredge survey.
Bathymetry Survey Collection Methods:
The collection methods and equipment used are based off USACE Single -Beam for Dredging
Methodology. Depth measurements were collected using an Odom CV100. This sonar signal processor is
designed to accurately record the full spectrum of the river bottom in a raw format that was later
processed in HYPACK software. A calibrated Digibar Pro sound velocity cast was taken prior to survey to
measure the speed of sound and input into Hypack software. The accuracy of the Odom CV100 data is
approximately 0.5% of the water depth with a resolution of 0.1 -feet. System accuracy was checked
during the survey using manual measurements.
Bathymetry Data Processing Methods:
Bathymetry data was then processed using HYPACK Software. Components of the bathymetric
processing included verifying the water depth was tracking the bottom and not outlying soundings
created by water column interference (e.g., sharp drop offs, vegetation, trees, debris). Data was then
exported as XYZ (northing, easting, and depth) in a State Plane horizontal projection and vertical
NAVD88 datum. The XYZ data was then imported into ESRI ArcGIS where a Triangular Irregular Network
(TIN) was created using the 3D Analyst extension to represent surface morphology.
Sediment Removal Quantity Data Processing:
The sediment removal quantity was calculated by comparing the pre and post dredge bathymetry in
ESRI ArcGIS PRO. Comparing both surfaces calculated an estimated volume of 59,817 cubic yards of
removal.
Survey Notes:
• The river level was high with strong currents moving through the dredge cut area at time of post
dredge survey.
RESULTS OF POSTDREDGE BATHYMETRY
Dredge Cut:
The dredge cut resulted in an estimated 59,817 cubic yards of removal.

paid leave allowances and continues to be unable to return to duty; attendance at professional or Union
conferences and schools, any official Union business, and such other situations where the member's
absence could not otherwise be compensated for purely personal reasons. Work back and exchange of
duties, as provided for herein shall in no way result in credit for extra compensation for the one
performing the duty in the form of overtime or other provisions for increased pay. The approval of the
IAFF Contract 3/14/2023 Page 6
Chief of the Department or the Assistant Chiefs to whom the Chief has delegated the authority shall not
be unreasonably withheld. Both employees involved in the exchange of duty must follow the City's
procedure which limits the number of "trading time's" to eighteen 24 hour exchanges (432 hours)
annually each for personal use and for union business leave. Sick time work back is defined further
under Section 2. The Chief will maintain records of all exchanges and work back and verify compliance
with City record-keeping requirements and 29 USC par 207 (p) 3, 803 KAR 1:063, KRS 337.020 and others
as they become applicable.
Section 2.
An employee who has exhausted their paid leave due to an extended sick leave absence from illness or
non -work related injury and had as much as two-thirds (2/3) of their earned sick leave available at the
beginning of the absence qualifies for up to six (6) months of work place coverage from qualified
employees who agree to voluntarily work or donate unused vacation time (as long as no overtime is
predicted to be needed to maintain minimum staffing as contained in City policy and can't be granted
any earlier than 72 hours before the start of the covered shift) as their replacement. The employee who
is absent due to illness/injury will be paid and the voluntary replacement will not receive compensation
from the City or will have vacation time deducted if approved. Under unusual circumstances where a
member does not have 2/3 of their sick time available at the beginning of the absence who does not

which represent impediments to a quality work environment, or which threaten the department's ability
to deliver fire services in the most efficient manner possible. No issue that is the subject of a pending
grievance will be decided in this forum unless mutually agreed to by the City and the Bargaining Units. It

concerns will positively influence both the decisions made by each party and the chances for acceptance
of those decisions.

City will consider up to two hours per meeting of such service to be a part of their job duties
when the meeting occurs during the assigned work hours of the representative. However, such

the grievance within ten (10) working days of the meeting to the Union Grievance Committee with a

mediation by the Kentucky Department of Labor or any other mutually agreed upon mediator. The
mediator shall have five (5) working days to set a date for the mediation hearing within thirty (30)

matter is not satisfactorily settled within five (5) working days, the grievance shall move to the Second

FOP Contract 4/11/2023 Page 4

grievance exercising that right is filed within the time limits outlined herein.
Section 8. Failure by the City to answer a grievance within the time period prescribed in Steps 1, 2,
and 3 shall constitute a denial of the grievance.
ARTICLE 8. LABOR RELATIONS MEETINGS
Section 1. The City and the Bargaining Unit recognize the responsibility each have to make full use
of the knowledge, talent and commitment of all who are involved in the delivery of police services to the
citizens of the City. The City and the Bargaining Unit recognize the benefit to each of exploration and
study of the department to provide the highest standards of service. Towards this end the City and the
Bargaining Unit agree to create and maintain Labor Relations Meetings, in conjunction with the other
bargaining units recognized by the City, as an active forum for the exploration of mutual concerns.
Section 2. The City and the Bargaining Units shall use this forum not as a substitute for collective
bargaining nor as a mechanism for modifying the Agreement; rather the forum is seen as an adjunct to
the collective bargaining process and as an aide in implementing and maintaining the Agreement. This
forum will also be useful as a place to discuss issues which arise outside of the context of collective
bargaining but which represent impediments to a quality work environment, or which threaten the
department's ability to deliver police services in the most efficient manner possible. No issue which is
the subject of a pending grievance will be decided in this forum unless mutually agreed to by the City
and the Bargaining Units. It is the expectation of both parties that the free flow of information and the
active discussion of common concerns will positively influence both the decisions made by each party
and the chances for acceptance of those decisions.
Section 3. Department management and Bargaining Unit representatives shall meet at least 4
times per year. The time, place and agenda will be arranged by the designated representatives from the
City and the Bargaining Units. Other meetings between the parties can be held anytime by request of
either party. Time and arrangement for such meetings will be set by the designated representatives
from the City and the Bargaining Units.
Section 4. The purpose of such meeting shall be to:
FOP Contract 4/11/2023 Page 6
Discuss the administration of the Agreement.
Discuss grievances which have not been processed to the Third Step of the procedure
when such discussions are mutually agreed to by the parties.
C. Notify the Bargaining Unit of changes made or contemplated by the City, which effect
Bargaining Unit members.
Disseminate general information of interest to the parties.
e. Give the Bargaining Unit representatives the opportunity to share the views of their
members and/or make suggestions on subjects of interest to their members, including interpretations of
the Agreement where such discussion may prevent the necessity of filing a grievance.
Discuss ways to increase productivity and improve efficiency.
Section 5.
a. For each person selected to represent the Bargaining Unit at the Labor Relations
meetings, the City will consider up to two hours per meeting of such service to be a part of his or her job
duties when the meeting occurs during the assigned work hours of the representatives. However, such
meetings shall not be scheduled so as to result in the payment of overtime for any designated
representative to attend said meeting.
b. It is further agreed that if special labor-management meetings have been requested,
and mutually agreed upon, they shall be convened as soon as possible.
ARTICLE 9. DISCIPLINARY PROCEDURES
Section 1. When an officer is to be disciplined or interviewed in relation to possible discipline he

delay the proceedings by more than two hours. Interviews or interrogation relating to criminal or
administrative misconduct shall be in accordance with the Commonwealth of Kentucky Statutes 95,
generally referred to as the Policemen's Bill of Rights. Discussions held solely for the purpose of
instruction or corrective actions when no documented disciplinary action is contemplated, are not
covered. A disciplinary action proceeding shall be distinguished from an investigative fact gathering
meeting.
Section 2. Employees will receive a copy of all documented disciplinary action placed in their file at
the time of the discipline and each employee will sign the disciplinary action upon receipt. In cases
where the employee's signature on the disciplinary documentation only indicates the employee's
receipt of the document, the employee may note that his signature indicates, "I have received but do
not necessarily agree with this document."

distributed to members of the Bargaining Unit five (5) days prior to implementation; however this
section does not limit the right of the City, to meet emergency or operational needs, to implement any

Short Title: Amend Code of Ordinances Chapter 106 Taxation for Efficiency in Payroll Tax Processing - S.
MILLAY & J. PERKINS
Category: Ordinance
Staff Work By: Stacee Young, Jonathan Perkins, Stephanie
Millay, Lindsay Parish
Presentation By: Jonathan Perkins, Stephanie Millay
Background Information: In order to process payroll tax bulk filings more efficiently, the Finance
Department is proposing this ordinance amendment to require payroll companies who file more than 6 returns
per quarter to submit an electronic file in place of individual paper returns. Currently, Revenue Technicians
manually process around 2,700 accounts that report to us on a quarterly basis with a paper return and a
check. It is estimated that utilizing electronic files on bulk filing accounts may reduce up to 25% payroll tax
quarterly data entry time. This ordinance is also required to enter into the development queue of software
companies for creating an electronic file compatible with Tyler Technologies. This proposed efficiency
improvement does not affect hours required to process business licenses, property tax, insurance premium tax
payments or customer service time.
Does this Agenda Action Item align with a Commission Priority? Yes
If yes, please list the Commission Priority: Operational efficiencies.
Communications Plan: Finance will communicate directly with payroll companies affected by
this change.

Re: Annexation request
Dear Josh:
I, George Sullivan, am requesting annexation of 252 Locust Avenue into the City of Paducah, pursuant to KRS
81A.412. This parcel totals approximately 1.93 acres and meets the requirement of KRS 81A.410. I request to
utilize the City of Paducah Real Estate property tax incentive for this property and the one-year sanitation pick up
within five years of annexation (if applicable). The City of Paducah acknowledges I may retain the current
ingress/ egress off Coleman Road or a new ingress/ egress may be constructed in the future in accordance with
any requirements by the City of Paducah Engineering Department. As a further incentive, building permit fees
would be waived by the Paducah Fire Prevention Division for a pole -barn type structure proposed on the property.
It is further requested that this parcel be zoned Light Industrial Zone (M-1) upon annexation.
Thank u,
iso I ?,az.Z
