GAULT Category: Ordinance Staff Work By: Josh Sommer, Carol Gault Presentation By: Josh Sommer Background Information: On April 6, 2026 the Planning Commission forwarded a favorable recommendation to the Board of Commissioners to adopt the text amendment of Section 126-104 Medium Density Residential Zone, R-3. The goals of the text amendment are to expand the principal uses in the R-3 Zone to create a better bridge into the R-4 High Density Residential Zone, smaller lot sizes and widths to restore the pattern of historic neighborhoods such as the Southside and the Northside Historic District and to introduce corner stores which were once a hub of activity in higher-density zones.

Signed Resolution (3) ORDINANCE 2026-____-_________ , the Paducah Planning Commission held a public hearing on April 6, 2026, regarding proposed amendments to Section 126-104, Medium Density Residential Zone, R-3, of the Paducah Zoning Ordinance, pursuant to KRS 100.211, and thereafter forwarded a favorable recommendation to the Board of Commissioners; and , the proposed text amendments are intended to provide a more appropriate transition between the R-3 Medium Density Residential Zone and the R-4 High Density Residential Zone by expanding permitted residential and neighborhood-serving uses; and the proposed amendments support the revitalization of established neighborhoods by encouraging “missing middle” housing, reducing nonconformities related to lot size and frontage, and facilitating redevelopment and infill development opportunities; and the amendments would permit neighborhood corner stores designed to provide walkable access to goods and services, encourage community interaction and place- making, and preserve the historic character and neighborhood identity of Paducah’s Southside and Northside Historic Districts; and the City of Paducah/McCracken County Comprehensive Plan, adopted in January 2025, recommends the incorporation of zoning strategies to address nonconformities, encourage smaller lot sizes and housing diversity, and promote neighborhood-serving commercial uses; and the Southside Revitalization Plan, adopted by the Board of Commissioners on August 12, 2025, identifies the encouragement of commercial uses serving nearby residents, including corner stores, as a key land use and zoning objective.

CASE NO. TXT2025-0001 TITLES 126-104 Medium Density Residential Zone DESCRIPTION Text change to provide for: • Expanded principal uses for a better transition between the R-3 and R-4 Zones. • Smaller principally permitted lot size, which we hope will help facilitate development on the Southside of Paducah and also the Northside Historic District to an extent. • The introduction of corner stores, which were once the hub of activity for neighborhoods. The revitalization of corner stores is a nationwide planning activity taking place as planners have realized the importance of fostering community and place-making. This is another targeted approach to enhance Paducah’s Southside as well the Northside Historic District. STAFF REPORT (continued) page 2 of 11 STAFF REPORT (continued) page 3 of 11 th Street STAFF REPORT (continued) page 4 of 11 th Street STAFF REPORT (continued) page 5 of 11 STAFF REPORT (continued) page 6 of 11 Most lots in R-3 Zones, including on the Northside and Southside, are nonconforming in terms of lot size and/ or frontage. As of right now, lots must have 50’ of street frontage and a minimum of 8,000 square feet to be a conforming lot. Staff is proposing a minimum 40’ frontage and smaller lot area. This would help to remove nonconforming lots in the R-3 Zone. Further, this text amendment could help further the construction of “missing middle” housing. The City of Paducah/ McCracken County Comprehensive Plan, adopted in January of 2025, specifically states on page HN-11: Define and permit within the City and County zoning codes a range of “missing middle” housing options for each residential and mixed-use zoning district, including analysis of allowing smaller lot sizes (i.e. more units per acre), reduced setbacks and facilitation of other design elements where appropriate.” “Continue to explore zoning strategies and provisions for overcoming “nonconformities” that can stand in the way of beneficial use and re-use of property, including infill development and redevelopment activity. Nonconformities arise when a pre-existing condition does not comply with zoning regulations that were adopted or changed later, which is the case in various areas both inside Paducah and elsewhere in McCracken County. Aspects of a property that most commonly can end up nonconforming include its use; the size, width and/or depth of the lot; and the setback and/or height of buildings. The typical zoning framework prevents all nonconforming uses and buildings from expanding or being altered in certain ways, and nonconforming lots often cannot be built on feasibly. This approach usually locks nonconformities in place for the long term, sometimes contributing to disinvestment and blight. However, mechanisms can be incorporated into local zoning to address nonconformities directly and more selectively, move non-nuisance properties into legal compliance, and free their uses and structures to expand or evolve where appropriate. At the same time, the issues and concerns that led to contemporary regulations must still be respected, requiring a balance between neighborhood protection and methods for eliminating nonconformities with minimum adverse effects. Only the most noxious uses and the most problematic buildings should remain nonconforming, with the intent of removing them over time. Without such solutions for resolving lesser nonconformities, many communities are plagued by a raft of variance requests from property owners seeking regulatory relief. In turn, a community’s land use and zoning objectives can be undermined if an overly sympathetic board of adjustment approves variances profusely.” STAFF REPORT (continued) page 7 of 11 Therefore, this proposed text amendment would be in accordance with three adopted regulatory documents, specifically the City of Paducah/ McCracken County Comprehensive Plan, The Board of Commissioner’s Priorities and the Southside Revitalization Plan.
