and amount of compensation, if any, shall be made."
On June 8, 2023 a bid was submitted for the two lots. Since the property was recently advertised and no bids

and the method of disposition to be used.
The City of Paducah purchased the lot at 1240 North 12th Street on Sept. 17, 2014 and
1242 North 12th Street on April 18, 2018. At the time of purchase there wereno known
plans for the development of the property.

parcels to a responsible citizen willing to develop the lot, thereby placing the
property back on the tax rolls and eliminating the maintenance and liability costs.
This property has been advertised several times since acquisition, the most recent
being on the City website and in the Paducah Sun on April 22, 2023. The deadline
to submit bids was 4 PM, May 8, 2023. No bids were received for the properties.

In those instances, a written description of the property, method of disposal, and
amount of compensation, if any, shall be made."
On June 8, 2023 a bid was submitted for the two lots. Since the property was recently
advertised and no bids received, staff accepted the bid, and followed the same
review criteria outlined by the request for bids. See page 4 for the bid scoring.

sufficient funds must be accumulated. Future budgets will likely contain additional annual funding, but may take many years to
be of sufficient value to take on major improvement projects. To further enhance the project's available balance, it is
recommended that $650,000 from the Investment Fund be transferred to this project funded with FY2023 Investment Fund
reserves. Focusing on upgrading city facilities and planning for new facilities is a Commission priority.

Presentation By: Lindsay Parish
Background Information: In 2021, the City of Paducah created an Entertainment Destination Center (EDC)
in a portion of downtown Paducah to allow patrons to carry alcoholic beverages in EDC -branded cups in the
common areas of the designated EDC area. At that time, state law did not allow for those alcoholic beverages
to be taken into non -licensed businesses such as retail stores.
House Bill 237 was signed into law on March 21, 2023, and becomes effective on July 1, 2023. House Bill 237
amends KRS 243.020 to allow for the possession and consumption of alcoholic beverages in all businesses
located within an Entertainment Destination Center which receive written permission from the EDC license
holder (the City of Paducah). This applies to both businesses that hold alcohol licenses and businesses that do
not hold alcohol licenses. In order to implement the change at a local level, the City must amend our ordinance
to align with the changes to State law.
Businesses will not be required to allow EDC cups in their establishment. Businesses may choose to allow the
EDC cups on their premises by requesting written permission from the City. Paducah Main Street will provide
participating businesses with a window decal that shows EDC cups are allowed in the business. This will help
patrons identify the locations where they can enter with their EDC cups. These changes will also allow for
"Sip -and -Shop" promotions in our downtown through Paducah Main Street.
Does this Agenda Action Item align with a Commission Priority? Yes
If yes, please list the Commission Priority: Downtown.
Communications Plan: Main Street meetings, City website, Commission Meeting highlights,
EDC Window Decals, Sip -and -Shop Promotions.
