Adopted on call of the roll, yeas, Commissioners Abraham, Gault, Kaler, Watkins and Mayor Paxton (5). MAYOR COMMENTS: Mayor Paxton gave comments about the difficult decisions the Commission has been facing over the last couple of weeks in regards to the employee layoff. Estimated revenue shortfall is between $2.5 million and $3.5 million due to several factors such as insurance premium tax shortfall; health insurance shortfall; increase of contributions to the employees state retirement pension fund and the police and firefighter pension fund. An option to increase revenue was never discussed, because the Commission did not want to raise taxes. Vacant positions within City departments will not be filled and additional cuts to services will be discussed during the budgeting process. In anticipation of a 5% decrease in the payroll tax that could amount up to $1 million, the City is trying to be proactive by planning for the effect of the recession. The Mayor feels the situation is going to get much worse before it gets better. MUNICIPAL ORDERS ADOPT OPERATIONAL EFFICIENCY PLAN Commissioner Watkins offered motion, seconded by Commissioner Kaler, that a Municipal Order entitled, "A MUNICIPAL ORDER ADOPTING THE OPERATIONAL EFFICIENCY PLAN RECOMMENDED BY THE CITY MANAGER FOR THE CITY OF PADUCAH; AUTHORIZING SPECIFIC COST REDUCTION ACTIONS INCLUDING THE LAYOFF OF CITY EMPLOYEES AND PROVIDING SEVERANCE PAYMENTS TO THOSE EMPLOYEES OF THE CITY OF PADUCAH, KENTUCKY," be adopted. The City Manager summarized his recommendations relating to the Operational Plan. The summary included previous action taken and recommendations for proceeding. Commissioners Watkins, Kaler and Gault gave comments of support for the plan. The Commissioners expressed their feelings of concern for the employees laid off. The decision to carry out the plan has been among the toughest decisions they have had to make since being elected as commissioner. When the economy improves they hope to increase the workforce. Commissioner Abraham gave a statement of opposition to the adoption of the Operational Efficiency Plan. PUBLIC COMMENTS The following spoke in opposition to the layoffs of the Human Resources Director and the Public Works Director: Rosa Scott, President of NAACP Rev. W. G. Harvey Former Commissioner Robert Coleman Gladman Humbles Herschel Dungey, former employee Joe Phelps, Representative for AFSCME Counsel 62, represents AFSCME Public Works employees. He expressed concern for union negotiations, because two of the City representatives will no longer be involved due to layoffs. He extended the offer of trying to get the contract settled before the contract expiration date of June 30, 2009, to help with employee stress because of talk of future cuts and layoffs.

Before the owners were able to move everything out of the house it caught on fire again during the early morning of Saturday and caused more damage. Due to the emergency situation of the structure being a danger to the other homes nearby the house had to be razed immediately. The Fire Department tried several times to contact the owners and were not successful. They were able to contact family members on Sunday morning. The Fire Chief wanted the Commission to be aware of the situation in case the owners contacted them. Upon motion the meeting adjourned. ADOPTED: April 28, 2009 janoon 5,f2 ��, City Clerk
