October 28, 2005
Honorable Mayor and Commissioners
City of Paducah
Paducah, Kentucky
We are pleased to submit Paducah's Comprehensive Annual Financial Report for the year ended June 30,
2005. Responsibility for the accuracy of the presented data and the completeness and fairness of the
presentation, including all disclosures, rests with the City.
The major objective of this report is to describe the City’s financial condition and the financial results of its
operation in a format designed to be useful to the general public, elected officials, investors and creditors. We
believe the data, as presented, is accurate in all material aspects; that it is reported in a manner designed to
present fairly the financial position and results of operations of the various funds. All disclosures necessary to
enable the reader to gain maximum understanding of the City’s financial activities have been included.
This Comprehensive Annual Financial Report consists of four sections as follows:
Introductory Section - Contains a list of principal officials, an organizational chart for Paducah and this
transmittal letter from the Finance Director.
Financial Section - Includes the Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A), basic financial statements,
required supplementary information, and combining and individual fund statements and schedules, as well as
the independent auditor’s report on the basic financial statements. The MD&A is a narrative introduction,
overview and analysis to accompany the basic financial statements. This letter of transmittal should be read in
conjunction with the MD&A, which can be found immediately following the report of the independent
auditors.
Statistical Section - Includes a number of statistical tables that present various financial, economic, social and
demographic data about Paducah for the last ten years.
Single Audit Section - Includes required data in accordance with the Single Audit Act Amendments of 1996.
THE CITY
Paducah was established in 1827 by explorer General William Clark and was named after local legendary
Chickasaw Indian Chief “Paduke”. The City of Paducah is situated on the southern bank of the Ohio River in
the north central portion of McCracken County. Paducah is the largest city both in the county and in the
Jackson Purchase eight county region. The City has established itself as the cultural, economic, medical and
transportation center for not only the Jackson Purchase region but for a large portion of Southern Illinois and
portions of Western Tennessee and Southeastern Missouri.

Equal Opportunity Employer
Industry
The Paducah area has moved from the traditional “manufacturing industry” to a “service industry” economy.
Multi-state computer services, significant banking corporations, wholesale and retail trade, river-related
services, the health care industry and related services are the major employment centers. Traditional
manufacturing employment is heavily concentrated in the categories of chemicals, petroleum, coal and rubber,
and enriched uranium.
Economic Development Activities
The Greater Paducah Economic Development Council (GPEDC) coordinates the City’s efforts in
strengthening and building economic development activities. Representatives of financial institutions, utilities,
local government, education and the business community serve as the Board of Directors. In existence since
1987, GPEDC assumes and carries out the responsibility of working with existing industry and business, as
well as identifying and recruiting new companies to the City of Paducah. Additionally, GPEDC is responsible
for development of long-term strategy for economic development activities and coordinates local entities in the
accomplishment of those strategies.
Several years ago, the City of Paducah, the State of Kentucky and several federal agencies, in conjunction with
business, developed a 650-acre ‘Information Age’ Park. This park is designed to appeal to firms needing
advanced telecommunications and computing capabilities. The Info Park’s focal point is centered on the
Resource Center, which was designed to coordinate resources of government, business and education.
In 1997, the City of Paducah jointly with the County of McCracken acquired the ‘Industrial Park West of
Paducah and McCracken County’. This park contains 218 acres with immediate access to two major railroad
lines, Paducah and Louisville and Paducah and Illinois (formerly Illinois Central). The park is located within
the southwest quadrant of the I-24/Cairo Road interchange.
In FY2004, the Keiler family donated the Columbia and Arcade Theatre buildings valued at $740,000, and a
donation of infrastructure for Industrial Park West valued at $1.1 million was received, totaling $1.84 million.
Union Planters Bank donated its former main bank building, valued at $675,000, to the City, which was
converted into the City’s ‘Commerce Center’. The theater buildings are being marketed for resale to further
enhance the downtown.
In FY2005, as the following table indicates, there were over 1,100 jobs created and retained, $69 million
capital invested and an added fiscal impact estimated to exceed $128 million from the jobs created and capital
invested. Additionally, Gander Mountain, Kohl’s, Best Buy and Old Navy opened, creating several hundred
more service industry jobs, further strengthening Paducah’s retail market.

Churches And Schools
A relatively strong religious base is evident in the community, as demonstrated by the many churches in
Paducah. Numerous churches, representing many of the major denominations, are located within the City.
Several area churches offer televised activities as a convenience to those who do not attend church.
Elementary and secondary education in Paducah is provided by the Paducah Independent School System, the
McCracken County School System, Community Christian Academy, and by the St. Mary’s Parochial School
System. Higher education is available locally from West Kentucky Community and Technical College
(WKCTC), formerly known as Paducah Community College, a two-year institution affiliated with the
University of Kentucky’s community college system. WKCTC also serves as a site for the University of
Kentucky extended campus graduate programs, in addition to a four-year engineering college in conjunction
with the University of Kentucky.
Medical Facilities
Paducah serves as the regional medical center for much of the Jackson Purchase Area of Western Kentucky, a
large portion of Southern Illinois, and Northwestern Tennessee. Paducah’s medical industry has almost every
major medical specialty represented in the physician population. The medical industry, represented by
Lourdes Hospital and Western Baptist Hospital, provides over 640 beds for medical needs. The two largest
hospitals, together, employ approximately 2,900 persons.
Recreation And Culture
Citizens have available a wide range of recreational and cultural activities which cater to diverse tastes. Area
residents may choose from fishing on nearby Kentucky and Barkley Lakes to enjoying the performing arts.
City parks provide areas for baseball, softball, golf, football, tennis, soccer and picnicking. The Parks Services
Department offers a substantial number of activities for people of all ages.
The ‘Dogwood Festival’, held in April, highlights the coming of spring in Paducah. Residents are encouraged
to spotlight their trees to illuminate a driving tour to celebrate an abundance of dogwood trees.
Paducah is the site of the American Quilter Society’s National Museum. The museum, dedicated in 1991, is
the centerpiece for the quilters’ annual convention held in April. The convention attracts an estimated 30,000
visitors to Paducah annually.
The ‘After Dinner Downtown Program’, began in May 1997, started out as an experiment to draw people to
Paducah's downtown district. From May to September, businesses remain open late on Saturday night, while
street corner musicians of all types entertain.
The ‘Paducah Summer Festival’, started in 1967, is an annual celebration held during the last week in July.
Some of the Festival’s activities include skydiving, hot air balloon races, a variety of music concerts, and
usually concludes with a spectacular riverfront fireworks display.
One of Paducah’s oldest celebrations is the ‘8th of August Emancipation Celebration’, which features African
American family reunions, or a homecoming. It is a time for African Americans to pay tribute to their heritage
and roots, and a time of reconciliation.
The ‘Barbecue on the River’ event was started in 1995, as a way for local charities to raise funds. It attracts in
excess of 20,000 participants to Paducah’s riverfront during the last weekend in September. Over time, this
annual event has grown to incorporate other events, including ‘Arts in Action’, ‘LowerTown Fine Arts
Festival’, ‘Marine Industry Day’ and ‘Old Market Days’.
The ‘Festival of Lights’, started in 1992, is another annual event. This festival marks the beginning of the
winter holiday season, with the official lighting of the trees and buildings in downtown Paducah. The season
includes a ‘Holiday Parade’ and features a ‘Candle Light Christmas Trail’.
-3-
Paducah has an active symphony and several theater groups. The Paducah Symphony Orchestra stages
concerts during the winter season, with the Market House Theater presenting several productions during the
same time period. The Paducah Live Corporation annually schedules a series of concerts, which brings some
of the finest artists to the Paducah stage. In addition, West Kentucky Community and Technical College’s
‘Arts in Focus’ series sponsors a variety of professional productions.
The most recent addition to the City’s cultural lineup is the ‘Luther F. Carson Four Rivers Center for the
Performing Arts’. The Center opened in February 2004, as a regional, multiple-purpose facility, with a 1,800-
seat main hall designed to accommodate a wide variety of cultural and educational programs.
The McCracken County Public Library offers a large selection of literature, special collections and programs.
The West Kentucky Community and Technical College Library supplements this community resource. The
combined inventories of the two libraries yield nearly 121,000 titles, not counting numerous periodicals and
newspapers.
THE GOVERNMENT
Paducah operates under a City Manager form of government. The Paducah Board of Commissioners is made
up of a Mayor and four Commissioners elected at large by the citizens on a non-partisan basis. The Mayor is
elected for a four-year term and Commissioners for a two-year term. The Mayor and Commissioners have
equal voting powers.
The Board of Commissioners sets the policies that govern the City. It appoints advisory citizens groups that
help in the decision-making process. The City Manager is appointed by the Board and assists it in formulating
objectives, policies and programs. The City Manager is responsible for the day-to-day operation of the City’s
325 full-time employees as of June 30, 2005. Department managers are responsible for their respective
departments and report directly to the City Manager.
REPORTING ENTITY AND ITS SERVICES
For financial statement purposes, as required by generally accepted accounting principles, the City’s
Comprehensive Annual Financial Report includes all City of Paducah financial statements (primary
government) and its component units. Component units discussed below are included in the City’s reporting
entity because of the significance of their operational or financial relationships with the City of Paducah.
The following component units have been presented as blended units because the units’ governing bodies
substantially the same as the governing body of the City, or provide services almost entirely to the City of
Paducah: the Paducah Public Improvement Corporation, whose sole purpose is to finance long-term debt; and
Police and Firefighters’ Pension Fund, which was established for the benefit of police and firemen of the City.
The following component units have been presented as discrete units, to emphasize that they are legally
separate from the City. Paducah Water Works, Paducah Power System, and Transit Authority of the City of
Paducah are all included in the City’s financial statements because of their financial relationship with the City.
The City provides a full range of municipal services, including police and fire protection; maintenance of
streets and infrastructure; sanitation services; storm sewer services; cultural events and recreation activities.
Accounting System
The City’s accounting system is organized on the basis of separate funds, each of which is considered to be a
separate accounting entity. The financial activities of each fund generate a separate set of self-balancing
accounts, which comprise its assets, liabilities, fund equity, revenues, and expenditures/expenses. Municipal
resources are allocated to and accounted for in individual funds based upon the purposes for which they are to
be spent and the means by which spending activities are controlled.
-4-
The City’s accounting records for the governmental funds and agency funds are maintained on a modified
accrual basis, with revenues being recorded when “measurable and available” and expenditures being recorded
when the services or goods are received and the liabilities are incurred. Accounting records for the City’s
proprietary funds and trust funds are maintained on the accrual basis, with revenues recognized when earned
and expenses recorded when the liability is incurred or economic asset used.
Internal Control
In developing and evaluating the City’s accounting system, consideration is given to the adequacy of internal
controls. Internal controls were designed for Paducah’s accounting system to reasonably safeguard its assets
against loss from unauthorized use or disposition, check the accuracy of accounting data, promote operational
efficiency and encourage adherence to prescribed managerial policies.
Budgetary Control
Paducah’s budget process provides for input from department managers, top management, elected officials and
the public to determine what programs and services will be provided for during the upcoming year. Budgetary
control is maintained at the departmental level by comparing budgeted expenditures with actual expenditures
on a periodic and year-to-date basis. An expenditure, which would result in an overrun of department
appropriation, cannot be made until additional funds are appropriated and a budget amendment is approved.
Purchase orders which result in an overrun of department appropriations cannot be honored until additional
appropriations are made available. Open encumbrances at fiscal year-end, if any, are reported as reservations
of fund balance. Unencumbered funds at year-end roll into the fund balance.
GENERAL GOVERNMENT FUNCTIONS
General Fund Revenue (Based on Fund Financial Statements)
Revenue for General Government functions (General Fund) totaled $26,862,189 in fiscal year 2005, a decrease
of 2.2% over fiscal year 2004. The amount of revenue from various sources, percent of total, and the increase
or decrease from last year in dollars and as a percentage are shown in the following tabulation:
Increase (Decrease)
From FY 2004
FY 2005 Percent Dollar
Revenue Sources: Amount of Total Amount Percent
Taxes $ 5,346,389 19.9% $ 140,967 2.7 %
Licenses and permits 19,368,765 72.1% 945,521 5.1 %
Charges for services 515,192 1.9% (54,128) (9.5)%
Grants 667,062 2.5% 31,537 5.0%
Interest 190,901 0.7% 72,335 61.0%
Miscellaneous 773,880 2.9% (1,747,853) (69.3)%
TOTAL REVENUE $ 26,862,189 100.0% $ (611,621) (2.2) %
The most substantial change in the revenue categories above in actual dollars is in ‘Miscellaneous’, which
amounted to $1,747,853. The vast majority of the decrease was caused by a ‘one-time’ donation of $1.84
million for a building and infrastructure donated to the City in FY2004. Net of the donations in FY2004,
revenues in the ‘Miscellaneous’ category increased $92,147 in FY2005. See ‘Economic Development
Activities’ section on page 2 for additional details regarding the donations.
The most substantial increase in the revenue categories was ‘Licenses and Permits’, which amounted to
$945,521. Payroll taxes increased $566,934 or about 5.3 percent, while business license collections increased
$146,764 or 4.2 percent over last year. In fiscal year 1995, $7.3 million was received in payroll tax revenues,
while fiscal year 2005 revenue was $11.1 million, an average growth rate of 4.4 percent. Payroll tax revenue
rate of growth was 3.4 percent for a more recent five-year period, fiscal 2000 to fiscal 2005. The FY2005
payroll tax revenue growth rate of 5.3 percent exceeds the five-year growth rate.
-5-
Insurance premium tax collections increased 5.0 percent or $189,425 over last year. In fiscal year 1992, $2.3
million was received, and in fiscal year 1999, the revenue hit $3.4 million, giving an average compounded
growth rate of 5.7 percent a year. While insurance premium tax revenue was $3.4 million in 1999, it
subsequently hit a 7-year low in 2000 at $3.0 million. In fiscal years 2001 and 2002, the insurance premium
tax sustained positive growth but declined 1.1 percent in fiscal 2003. The average growth rate for the
insurance premium tax over the past 4 years was 3.8 percent.
While overall, ‘License and Permits’ revenue dollars grew the most, the ‘Interest’ category increased the most
dramatically as a percentage of change, 61 percent or $72,335. The interest revenue increase can be attributed
to the general increase in interest rate environment.
General Fund Expenditures (Based on Fund Financial Statements)
Expenditures for General Fund functions totaled $24,331,520, a decrease of 1.1% over fiscal year 2004.
Increases and decreases in levels of expenditures by major functions compared to the preceding year are
shown in the following tabulation:
Increase (Decrease)
From FY 2004
FY 2005 Percent Dollar
Expenditures: Amount of Total Amount Percent
General government $ 4,171,662 17.2% $ 280,411 7.2%
Public safety 12,998,049 53.4% 1,248,031 10.6%
Public service 5,654,686 23.2% 72,680 1.3%
Recreation 1,045,024 4.3% 18,727 1.8 %
Other 462,099 1.9% (1,881,745) (80.3)%
TOTAL EXPENDITURES $24,331,520 100.0% $ (261,896) (1.1) %
Expenditures decreased 1.1 percent or $261,896 between fiscal year 2004 and fiscal year 2005. Spending
between fiscal year 2003 and fiscal year 2004 increased $693,178 or 3.1 percent (net of ‘one-time’ donation of
$1.84 million for a building and infrastructure donated to the City in FY2004). The fiscal year 1995
expenditure per capita was $595 and changed to $728 and $839 in fiscal year 2000 and fiscal year 2003,
respectively. Per capita expenditures have increased on average 4.7 percent annually since fiscal year 1995.
Fiscal year 2005 General Fund expenditures decreased $10 per citizen from the fiscal year 2004 amount of
$935.
The most substantial increase in the expenditures categories above, in actual dollars, is in ‘Public Safety’,
which amounted to $1,248,031. Over 72% of the increase is attributed to wages and related benefits,
specifically wage increases ($470,800) and related pension expenses ($364,200). FOP and IAFF wage
contracts provided for a 3% cost of living adjustment in fiscal year 2005. The State of Kentucky increased the
City’s pension expense for hazardous-duty employees by 3.57% (a 19.3% increase) to a 22.08% contribution
rate on all wages paid.
The largest change in the expenditure categories above, in actual dollars, is in ‘Other’, which amounted to a
decrease of $1,881,745. The vast majority of the change was caused by a ‘one-time’ donation of $1.84 million
for a building and infrastructure donated to the City in fiscal year 2004. Net of the donations, expenditures in
the ‘Other’ category actually decreased in FY2005 $41,745. See ‘Economic Development Activities’ section
on page 2 for additional details regarding the donations.
The next most significant change, in terms of dollars, was in the ’General Government’ category for $280,411,
or 7.2% over last year. General Government operation expenditures include operations not involved with
public safety, recreation, or public service. The most substantial increases, in terms of dollars, were in the
‘Legal’, ‘Contributions’ and ‘Inspections’ divisions, amounting to nearly $169,000.
The fiscal year 2005 budget process played a significant role in identifying spending trends, and that process
should be carried over into fiscal year 2006. The fiscal year 2005 expenditures more accurately reflect all
costs associated with the departments that benefit from the expenditure.
-6-
ECONOMIC CONDITION
The City continues to be aggressive in promoting economic development, since new developmental job
growth is necessary to ensure the continued stability of the City’s tax base. Economic indicators and trends
reflect that the area’s economy has remained steady in recent years and is expected to continue to be steady
over the near-term. Area employment remains stable with 29,698 persons employed (McCracken County) as
of June 30, 2005.
The June 2005 unemployment rate was 6.1% (McCracken County), somewhat higher than the federal rate of
5.0%. The number of active electric and water meters was nearly the same as the prior year. The number of
residential construction permits obtained was 204 units of single and multi-family dwellings, down 24% and
valued at $16.6 million. The value of commercial construction permits was $41.4 million, up sharply 75%
from the prior year.
CASH MANAGEMENT
Idle cash in the City’s various funds, except for pension funds, is invested for terms ranging from overnight to
23 months to maturity, depending upon liquidity needs. Independent money managers handle Police and
Firefighters’ Pension Funds. City deposits/investments are protected by FDIC insurance and pledged U.S
Government securities. The amount of interest earned in fiscal year 2005 in the General Fund was $190,901,
on rates varying from 1.65% to 3.45%.
RISK MANAGEMENT
In recent years, attention has been focused on safety in the workplace. Working with the Kentucky League of
Cities (KLC) has produced numerous enhancements in worker safety. In fiscal year 2005, a risk manager was
hired in order to more aggressively address risk issues. The City has selected various insurance coverage to
mitigate potential risk, with premiums costing more than $1,015,000 and $904,500 in fiscal year 2005 and
fiscal year 2004, respectively, for general liability, public officials liability, auto, law enforcement and workers
compensation.
PENSION FUND MANAGEMENT
The City of Paducah employees are covered by one of three retirement systems: (1) Police and Firefighters’
Pension Fund (PFPF); (2) County Employees’ Retirement System (CERS); and (3) Appointive Employees’
Pension Fund (AEPF).
The PFPF is a single-employer contributory defined benefit plan established by local ordinance under State
Statutes. Members contribute 8% of their gross earnings. The investments of this fund are managed by a six-
member board of trustees, which utilizes BB&T as money managers. Monthly reports are received, and
monthly meetings are held with the money managers to review investment progress and strategy.
In the past year, the PFPF had a net asset decrease of $201,438, with net assets valued at $9,150,861 on June
30, 2005. There were 5 active members and 95 retirees and/or beneficiaries in this fund as of June 30, 2005.
The most recent actuarial report prepared for the PFPF was as of July l, 2005.
The CERS is a multiple employer cost sharing defined benefit plan administered by Kentucky Retirement
System. Effective August 1, 1988, all but 21 active police and firefighters opted to transfer from the present
plan to the County Employees’ Retirement System.
Non-hazardous duty employees contribute 5%, while hazardous duty employees contributed 7% until August
1, 1998. Hazardous duty employees contribute 8% effective August 1, 1998, due to a change in state pension
law. The City contributed 8.48% for non-hazardous and 22.08% for hazardous duty employees in fiscal year
2005.
-7-
The AEPF is a single-employer contributory defined benefit plan created by local ordinance under State
Statute. While there are no active members in the plan, there are 11 retirees and/or beneficiaries receiving
benefits from the fund as of June 30, 2005. Retirees are former non-hazardous duty municipal employees who
retired prior to the statewide CERS plan. Funding was formerly provided by a special ad valorem tax, with
any shortfall to be covered by a transfer from the City’s General Fund. The AEPF had a net asset increase of
$5,269 in fiscal year 2005, with net assets valued as of June 30, 2005, of $328,889.
SPECIAL REVENUE FUNDS
Special revenue funds (Nonmajor Governmental Funds) included in this report are the Municipal Aid
Program, Emergency Communication Service Fund, Court Awards Fund, and various Federal and State
Grants. Revenues accounted for in these funds are restricted to specific purposes.
PROPRIETARY FUNDS
The City maintains eight proprietary funds which are: Solid Waste, Civic Center, Telecommunication
Information System Authority (TISA) (Business-type Activities); and Fleet Maintenance, Fleet Lease Trust,
Insurance and Health Insurance Funds (Internal Service Funds).
In fiscal year 1990, the Solid Waste Fund and the Wastewater/Stormwater Fund were reclassified from
General Government and established as proprietary funds. The City’s fleet operation was broken out as a
proprietary fund in fiscal year 1992, in order to more accurately reflect the true cost of the City’s vehicle and
equipment fleet maintenance program. The Civic Center’s operation was converted into a proprietary fund in
fiscal year 1993. In fiscal year 1999, the City set up two new funds called Fleet Lease Trust and Health
Insurance Funds in order to more accurately monitor the City’s fleet lease program and health, dental and
flexible benefits programs, respectively. All these changes were made to better account for the cost of
operations. The Wastewater/Stormwater Fund was closed out in fiscal year 2004, since accounts are settled
with the Paducah-McCracken County Joint Sewer Authority (JSA). This agency has taken over the planning,
financing, operation and maintenance of all county and city sewer systems.
DEBT SERVICE FUND
This fund is used to account for payment of general obligation indebtedness, which includes the following debt
issues.
In fiscal year 2001, the City issued $9.29 million in notes payable to fund the Julian Carroll Convention Center
expansion ($6.0 million) and to assist in the financing of the Luther F. Carson Four Rivers Center (FRC) for
the Performing Arts ($3.0 million). According to an interlocal agreement between the City, McCracken
County and the Tourism and Convention Commission, principal and interest payments on the bonds are to be
made from a 2% transient room tax collected by the County. Any excess principal and interest payments on
the bonds are split equally between the City, County and the Tourism and Convention Commission.
In fiscal year 2004, the City issued $3.5 million in bonds to fund a variety of capital projects, including park
improvements ($1.0 million), downtown infrastructure improvements in conjunction with the FRC ($1.5
million), and City Hall, Police and other City-owned facility improvements ($1.0 million). In fiscal year 2004,
the City sold $5.0 million in bonds to construct the Infiniti Media Building in the Paducah Industrial Park
West, an economic development project. By interlocal agreement, McCracken County is obligated to an
amount equal to 50% of the principal amount of the bonds. After the third year of the life of the bond, the
Infiniti Media Company is obligated to make monthly lease payments to the City in an amount nearly equal to
the debt service obligation.
The total cash outlay requirements for debt service retirement; principal and interest, in fiscal year 2005 were
$1,298,614.

CERTIFICATE OF ACHIEVEMENT
The Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA) awarded a Certificate

CITY OF PADUCAH, KENTUCKY
FINANCIAL SECTION
COMPREHENSIVE ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT
YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2005
Independent Auditor’s Report
Honorable William F. Paxton, Mayor
Members of the Board of Commissioners
City of Paducah
Paducah, Kentucky
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type
activities, the aggregate discretely presented component units, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining
fund information of the City of Paducah, Kentucky (the City), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2005,
which collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the City of Paducah, Kentucky’s management. Our responsibility
is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit. We did not audit the financial
statements of the following component units: Paducah Water Works, Paducah Power System, and Transit
Authority of the City of Paducah, which represent 100 percent of the assets and revenues of the Component
Units column. Those financial statements were audited by other auditors whose reports have been furnished to
us, and our opinion on the basic financial statements, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for Paducah
Water Works, Paducah Power System, and Transit Authority of the City of Paducah, discretely presented
component units, is based on the reports of the other auditors.
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of
America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued
by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the basic financial statements are free of material misstatement.
An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall basic financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinions.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective
financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, the aggregate discretely presented
component units, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Paducah,
Kentucky as of June 30, 2005, and the respective changes in financial position and cash flows, where
applicable, thereof for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America.
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated October 28, 2005,
on our consideration of the City’s internal control over financial reporting and our tests of its compliance with
certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that
report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the
results of that testing and not to provide an opinion on the internal control over financial reporting or on
compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing
Standards and should be read in conjunction with this report in considering the results of our audit.
-13-
The Management’s Discussion and Analysis, Pension Trust Fund Schedules, and budgetary comparison
information on pages 15 through 26 and 82 through 87, are not a required part of the basic financial statements
but are supplementary information required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America. We have applied certain limited procedures, which consisted principally of inquiries of management
regarding the methods of measurement and presentation of the supplementary information. However, we did
not audit the information and express no opinion on it.
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively
comprise the City of Paducah, Kentucky’s basic financial statements. The introductory section, combining
and individual nonmajor fund financial statements, and statistical tables are presented for purposes of
additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements. The accompanying schedule
of expenditures of federal awards is presented for purposes of additional analysis as required by U.S. Office of
Management and Budget Circular A-133, Audits of State, Local Governments, and Non-Profit Organizations,
and is also not a required part of the basic financial statements of the City of Paducah, Kentucky. The
combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements and the schedule of expenditures of federal
awards have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements
and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as
a whole. The introductory section and statistical section have not been subjected to the auditing procedures
applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, accordingly, we express no opinion on them.

CITY OF PADUCAH, KENTUCKY
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
JUNE 30, 2005
The City of Paducah (“City”) offers Management’s Discussion and Analysis to provide a narrative overview
and analysis of City financial activities for fiscal year ended June 30, 2005. To fully understand the entire
scope of the City’s financial activities, this information should be read in conjunction with the letter of
transmittal (pages 1-9) and the basic financial statements (pages 27-80) provided in this document.
The City first implemented Government Accounting Standards Board Statement 34, Basic Financial
Statements—and Management’s Discussion and Analysis—for State and Local Governments, for fiscal year
2003.
I. Financial Highlights
Assets exceeded liabilities by $40.0 million at the close of the 2004-2005 fiscal year. Of this
amount, $7.4 million (unrestricted net assets) may be used to meet City government’s ongoing
obligations to citizens and creditors.
Total net assets decreased $712,625.
At fiscal year end, City governmental funds reported a combined ending fund balance of $10.8
million. Approximately 87% of this total amount, $9.4 million, is unreserved and available for
spending at the City’s discretion. Of the $9.4 million, $1,049,659 is in various special funds, which
are earmarked for specific purposes.
At the end of the current fiscal year, unreserved general fund balance was $8.3 million, of which
cash makes up approximately $4.4 million. When compared to total appropriations, the general fund
cash balance is 16.4%.
II. Overview of Financial Statements
This discussion and analysis serves as an introduction to the City’s basic financial statements, which
consist of four components: 1) government-wide financial statements, 2) fund financial statements, 3)
component unit financial statements, and 4) notes to the financial statements. This report also contains
other supplementary information in addition to the basic financial statements.
A. Government-Wide Financial Statements
Government-wide financial statements are designed to provide readers with a broad overview of
City finances in a manner similar to private-sector business.
The Statement of Net Assets presents information on all City assets and liabilities, with the
difference between assets and liabilities reported as net assets. Monitoring increases and/or
decreases in net assets over time may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial position of
the City is improving, stagnating, or deteriorating.
The Statement of Activities presents information showing how the City’s net assets changed during
the fiscal year. All net asset changes are reported as soon as the underlying event giving rise to the
change occurs regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Revenues and expenses are reported in
the Statement of Activities for some items that will only result in cash flows in the future (e.g.,
uncollected taxes and earned but unused vacation leave).
Both of the government-wide financial statements distinguish City functions that are primarily
supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues (governmental activities) from other City
functions that are intended to recover all or a significant portion of their costs through user fees and
charges (business-type activities). City governmental activities include general government, public
safety, public service, park and recreation, planning and development, and interest on long-term
debt. Business-type activities of the City include Solid Waste, Civic Center and Telecommunication
Information System Authority (TISA).
-16-
Government-wide financial statements include not only the City (the primary government), but also
a legally separate Paducah Water Works, Paducah Power System and Transit Authority of the City
of Paducah (component units) for which the City is financially accountable. Financial information
for the component units is reported separately from the financial information presented for the
primary government itself.
The government-wide financial statements can be found on pages 27-30 of this report.
B. Fund Financial Statements
A fund is a grouping of related accounts that is used to maintain control over segregated resources
for specific activities or objectives. The City of Paducah, like other state and local governments,
uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements.
City funds can be divided into three categories:
1) Governmental Funds. Governmental funds are used to account for essentially the same
functions reported as governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. Unlike
government-wide financial statements, however, governmental fund financial statements focus on
current sources and uses of spendable resources, as well as on balances of spendable resources
available at the end of the fiscal year. This information may be useful in evaluating a city’s near-
term financing requirements.
The City maintains fourteen (14) individual governmental funds. Information is presented
separately in the governmental fund balance sheet and in the governmental fund statement of
revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances for the General, General Capital
Improvements, and Downtown Capital Improvements Funds, all of which are considered to be major
funds. Data from the other eleven (11) funds are combined into a single, aggregated presentation.
Individual fund data for each of these non-major governmental funds is provided in the form of
combining and individual fund statements elsewhere in this report on pages 87-100.
Readers may better understand the long-term impact of the City’s near-term financing decisions by
comparing the narrow-focus governmental funds financial statements with governmental activities
in the government-wide financial statements. Exhibit 4 (pages 33-34) and Exhibit 6 (pages 37-38)
provide a reconciliation to ease comparison between the fund financial statements and the
government-wide statements.
The basic governmental fund financial statements can be found on pages 31-38 of this report.
2) Proprietary Funds. The City maintains two types of proprietary funds:
a. Enterprise Funds. Enterprise funds are used to report the same functions presented as
business-type activities in the government-wide financial statements and are used to account
for operations:
That are financed and operated in a manner similar to private business enterprises where
the intent of the governing body is that the costs of providing goods and services to the
general public on a continuing basis be financed or recovered primarily through user
charges; or
Where the governing body has decided that periodic determination of revenues earned,
expenses incurred, and/or net income is appropriate for capital maintenance, public
policy, management control, accountability or other purposes.
The City uses three enterprise funds to account for Solid Waste, Civic Center and TISA, as
well as certain component units that provide electric, water, and public transit. TISA and
Civic Center receive subsidy from the General Fund.
-17-
The City’s component unit enterprises include the Paducah Water Works, Paducah Power
System and Paducah Transit Authority, which provide water, electric, light and power
systems, and public transportation. These component units, each of which has their own
board of directors, are also enterprise funds and are shown on pages 44-47.
b. Internal Service Funds are used to accumulate and allocate costs internally among the
City’s various functions. The City uses internal service funds to account for fleet services,
fleet replacement, risk management (insurance) and employee health programs. Internal
Service Funds have been allocated between governmental activities and business-type
activities in the government-wide financial statements based on revenue earned.
Proprietary funds provide the same kind of information as government-wide financial
statements, but in greater detail. Individual data for the nonmajor proprietary funds is presented
in the form of combining statements on pages 101-103 of this report. Individual data for the
internal service funds is likewise presented in the form of combining statements on pages 99-
101 of this report.
3) Fiduciary Funds. Fiduciary funds are used to account for resources held for the benefit of
parties outside the government and are not reflected in government-wide financial statements
because those resources are not available to support City programs. Individual data for the
City’s five (5) fiduciary funds (Appointive Employees’ Pension, Police and Firefighters’
Retirement, Oak Grove Cemetery Trust, Maintenance and Rehabilitation Trust and Payroll
Agency) are presented in the form of combining statements on pages 107-111 of this report.
C. Notes to the Financial Statements
The notes provide additional information that is essential to fully understanding data provided in the
government-wide and fund financial statements. Notes to the financial statements can be found on
pages 48-80 of this report.
D. Other Information
In addition to basic financial statements and accompanying notes, this report also presents certain
required supplementary information concerning City funding of its obligation to provide pension
benefits to its employees and budgetary comparison schedules for the general and major special
revenue funds.
The combining statements referred to earlier in connection with nonmajor governmental funds,
nonmajor proprietary funds, internal service funds and fiduciary funds are presented immediately
following the required supplementary information on pensions and budgetary comparisons.
Combining fund statements and schedules can be found on pages 82-106 of this report.
III. Government-Wide Financial Analysis
As noted earlier, net assets may serve over time as a useful indicator of the City’s financial position.
City assets exceeded liabilities by $40.0 million as of June 30, 2005.
The largest portion of the City’s net assets (77%) reflects its investment in capital assets (i.e., land,
buildings, machinery, equipment and infrastructure) less outstanding related debt used to acquire those
assets. The City uses these capital assets to provide service to citizens and, as a result, these assets are
not available for future spending. The City’s capital assets investment is reported net of related debt,
but the resources to pay this debt must be provided from other sources since the capital assets cannot be
used to liquidate the liabilities.
-18-
An additional portion of City net assets (4%) represents resources that are subject to external
restrictions on how they may be used. The remaining balance of unrestricted net assets ($7.4 million)
may be used to meet the City’s ongoing obligations to citizens and creditors.
As of June 30, 2005, the City reports positive balances in all three categories of net assets, both for the
government as a whole, as well as for its separate governmental and business-type activities.
In this third year of implementation of GASB Statement 34, the City is presenting comparative columns
in the various comparisons and analyses for the prior year.

IV. Financial Analysis of the City’s Funds
A. Governmental Funds
The focus of the City’s governmental funds is to provide information on near-term inflows, outflows
and balances of spendable resources. Such information is useful in determining the City’s financing
requirements. Unreserved fund balance serves as a useful measure of the City’s net resources
available for spending at the end of the fiscal year.
At the end of the fiscal year, the City governmental funds reported combined ending fund balances
of $10.8 million (see Exhibit 3). Approximately 87% of this total amount, $9.4 million, is
unreserved fund balance, which is available for spending at the government’s discretion but only up
to the amount represented by cash. Of the $9.4 million, $1.1 million is in the debt service fund and
various grant funds. The remaining $1.4 million of fund balance is reserved for specific future uses.
The general fund is the chief operating fund of the City. At the end of the 2004-2005 fiscal year, the
general fund unreserved fund balance was $8.3 million. City fiscal policy (ordinance 2004-6-6827)
required that an amount not less than 12.5% of the General Fund’s budgeted expenditures remain
undesignated in the fund balance, or $3.4 million, which leaves $4.9 million as unreserved for fiscal
year 2005. While $4.9 million represents unreserved fund balance, it is worth noting here that at
year-end there was only $4.4 million available as cash, the balance is tied up in other assets
including accounts receivable and property taxes collectible. As a measure of general fund liquidity,
readers may compare both unreserved fund balance and total fund balance to total general fund
expenditures. Unreserved General Fund fund balance represents approximately 30.7% of
expenditures and transfers out ($27.1 million). When compared to total appropriations, the general
fund cash balance ($4.4 million) is 16.4%.
The General Fund fund balance decreased by $209 thousand during the 2004-2005 fiscal year and
was the result of expenditures increasing at a more rapid rate than revenues. Key factors
contributing to this decrease are:
o Economic development incentives, and
o State pension plan cost increases.
The General Capital Improvements Fund had a fund balance of $953 thousand all of which is
reserved. The General Capital Improvements fund balance increased $216 thousand over last year.
The Downtown Capital Improvements Fund had a deficit fund balance of $13,389 all of which is
unreimbursed expenditures for economic development projects. The Downtown Capital
Improvements fund balance decreased $3.1 million. Final construction payouts for the Infiniti
Media project made up $1.8 million of the change, the balance of the decrease was payouts for
various infrastructure projects including the Police Building and Park facility improvements.

B. Proprietary Funds
The City’s proprietary funds provide the same information found in the government-wide financial
statements, but in more detail.
Unrestricted net assets of the respective proprietary funds are:
Solid Waste $ (222,094)
Civic Center 22,359
TISA 157,146
Combined net asset change for the three funds was $34 thousand less than last year, broken down as
follows: Solid Waste ($43 thousand), Civic Center ($6 thousand), and TISA $83 thousand. Other
factors concerning the proprietary enterprise funds have been addressed in the discussion of City
business-type activities.
V. General Fund Budgetary Highlights
Differences between the original budget and the final actual amounts resulted in a $723 thousand
decrease in appropriations and can be briefly summarized as follows:
Appropriations
Department Increase Decrease
General administration $ - $272,114
Finance - 12,663
Planning - 182,703
Human rights - 10,544
Human resources - 19,440
Inspection - 36,546
Information systems - 29,236
Risk management 3,938 -
Police - 102,269
Fire 73,033 -
Public works - 232,568
Engineering services - 74,446
Recreation - 110,421
Other 282,869 -
Transfers out were increased $722 thousand. The net decrease to appropriations and transfers out was
$1,000 for the year. Overall, since expenditures and transfers out were slightly less than budgetary
estimates, fund balance was affected positively.
The budget is a ‘living and breathing’ plan document, which requires adjustments throughout the year. In
order to meet the continuing challenge to fund the cost of economic development and infrastructure needs
($436 thousand), neighborhood redevelopment ($150 thousand) and the cost of the Police and Firefighter’s
Pension plan ($122 thousand) it was necessary to reduce the cost of operations by $723 thousand and
increase the transfers out appropriation by $722 thousand.
VI. Capital Asset and Debt Administration
A. Capital Assets
The City’s investment in capital assets for governmental and business-type activities as of June 30,
2005, is $37.4 million (net of accumulated depreciation). This investment in capital assets includes
land, buildings and improvements, vehicles and equipment, park facilities, roads, highways, and
bridges, and construction in progress.
-24-
Capital improvements are included in each department budget until improvements are completed.
At the end of the fiscal year, completed projects are capitalized in the Government-wide Statements.
During fiscal year 2005, projects and equipment expenditures totaled nearly $7.4 million. The
largest capital-type projects, in terms of dollars in fiscal year 2005, are shown in the following table:
Infiniti Media building project $1,773,000
City Hall and Police Building – HVAC 814,830
Pecan Drive improvements project (row, bridges) 602,000
Park improvements (including recreation trails) 506,000
AlumaKraft/Infiniti economic development projects 440,000
Four Rivers Center parking lot and related infrastructure 233,000
AJLS land acquisition 222,000
GIS and Fire FEMA projects 172,000
In the upcoming years, several street, economic development, riverfront development, quality of life
and drainage projects will continue and are estimated to cost several million dollars. Capital
improvement projects including infrastructure, the continuing airport expansion, recreational facility
improvements, continued neighborhood revitalization, and street and sidewalk rehabilitation are
among the projects to be addressed.

B. Long-Term Debt
At year-end, the City had $18,506,727 in outstanding bonds, accrued compensated absences and
notes payable, compared to $18,793,259 at June 30, 2004 with maturities extending through 2026.
During the year, the City’s total debt decreased by $286,532, as shown in the following table:

General Obligation Bonds: 2005 2004
Convention and Performing Arts Center – 2001 $ 8,380,000 $ 8,620,000

TOTALS $18,506,727 $18,793,259
-25-
In June 2001, a $9.29 million general obligation bond was added to the City’s debt obligation to
finance construction of the Luther F. Carson Four Rivers Center for the Performing Arts
(approximately $3.0 million) and the expansion of the Julian Carroll Convention Center
(approximately $6.0 million). These bonds are required to be fully paid within 25 years from the date
of issue and are backed by the full faith and credit of the City. While the City issued these bonds,
50% of the principal amount of the bonds is being issued on behalf of the County of McCracken,
Kentucky. McCracken County has issued the City a general obligation note in a principal amount
equal to 50% of the principal amount of the bonds.
In fiscal year 2004, the City borrowed $3.5 million to fund a variety of capital projects, including
park improvements ($1.0 million), downtown infrastructure improvements in conjunction with the
FRC ($1.5 million), and City Hall, Police and other City-owned facility improvements ($1.0 million).
In fiscal year 2004, the City sold $5.0 million in bonds to construct the Infiniti Media Building in the
Paducah Industrial Park West, an economic development project. By interlocal agreement,
McCracken County is obligated to an amount equal to 50% of the principal amount of the bonds.
After the third year of the life of the bond, the Infiniti Media Company is obligated to make monthly
lease payments to the City in an amount nearly equal to the debt service obligation.
In fiscal year 2005, the County of McCracken entered into two separate agreements totaling
$550,000, with the Kentucky Association of Counties (KACO) for purchase of a rail spur and
construction of a speculative building in the Industrial Park West. Both notes are required to be fully
paid within 5 years from date of issue and are backed jointly by the full faith and credit of the City
and County. While the County issued both notes, 50% of the principal amount of both was issued on
behalf of the City, which intends to participate on an equal basis with the County in accordance with
an interlocal agreement.
The City’s legal debt limit under §158 of the Kentucky Constitution is 10% of total assessed value of
taxable property in Paducah; therefore, the debt limit is $152,230,137. The City’s latest bond rating
by Moody is A2. The City has a low amount of general obligation debt, which explains our large
legal debt margin.
The City of Paducah, Kentucky, issues and incurs debt in order to fund capital improvement projects,
purchase major capital equipment and facilities, and respond to other special funding needs. Less
than 4.8% of the General Fund budget is expended for debt service, and thus has minimal impact on
current and future operations.
Additional information on the City’s long-term debt can be found in Note 3 in the notes to financial
statements on pages 65-68.
VII. Economic Factors and Next Year’s Budgets and Rates.
A. General Comments. Paducah continued to experience steady-slow-growth in the local economy as
compared to the national economy in fiscal year 2005. It is estimated that over 1,100 jobs were
created or retained in fiscal year 2005 along with $69 million in private capital investments.
Paducah continues to experience retail growth in the Kentucky Oaks Mall area and the City’s
Southside in addition to job expansions in the Information Age Park and the Industrial Park West.
The downtown area continues to be enhanced with the addition of new retail establishments, further
expanding the property tax value base as well as the payroll tax base. Downtown was improved
with the opening of the Luther F. Carson Four Rivers Center for the Performing Arts (FRC). The
FRC opened in early 2004 at a cost in excess of $35 million. The State of Kentucky contributed $20
million toward the project, with the balance of the cost funded locally by government, tourism taxes
and private donations. Four Rivers Behavioral Health Systems Corporate offices moving into the
former J C Penney building, in 2004, which had been vacant for years, further enhanced downtown.
These major additions to the downtown area will significantly increase the flow of commerce and
traffic flow.
-26-
B. Unemployment Rate. The unemployment rate for the City of Paducah (McCracken County) as of
June 2005 was 6.1%. This rate is somewhat higher than the federal and state rates of 5.0% and
5.7%, respectively.
C. Inflationary Trends. Inflationary trends in the City compare favorably to state and national trends.
D. Annexation Policy. The City’s major long-term concern is revenue for capital projects. Incentive
investments in annexation and economic development should enable revenue to increase over the
next 5-8 years. Paducah will continue to pursue its annexation efforts as these efforts will insure
long-term financial stability for the City in terms of increased property taxes, payroll taxes, and
business gross receipts fees through further commercial, industrial, and residential development.
City policy will continue to provide annexation incentives that should pay for themselves in the
long-term and serve as incentive investments in future revenues to offset the cost of providing
services to the newly annexed areas. The policy of balanced and controlled growth will be one of
the City’s greatest challenges in the next five to ten years.
E. Strategic Fleet Acquisition Plan. The City’s effort to limit expenditure growth and seek cost
savings opportunities assists our effort to insure that funds are available for future capital projects.
Paducah implemented the Strategic Fleet Acquisition Plan fiscal year 1998-1999 in an effort to
systematically review the City’s fleet of vehicles. This plan allows the City to make long-range
plans for replacing vehicles at the optimal time to avoid high maintenance costs and take advantage
of a higher resale value.
F. Enterprise Zone. Since its inception, the Paducah Enterprise Zone Program has produced 325
qualified businesses, which have pledged expenditures of $91 million in addition to creating 322-
targeted jobs.
All the above factors, in addition to current and future needs of the City, were considered when the
2005-2006 Budget for the City of Paducah was prepared. The beginning general fund balance for
fiscal year 2005-2006 is $8,303,702 (cash balance was $4,433,000). The City has estimated an
ending fund balance of $6,700,000 (cash balance $2,843,000, or 10% of projected general fund
expenditures). An increase in employee payroll withholding tax will go into effect October 2005 in
fiscal year 2005-2006. The increase is expected to gross $1.9 million during the first year of
implementation. At the present time, the City is in good financial condition.

CITY OF PADUCAH, KENTUCKY
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2005
Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
General Statement
The City of Paducah (City) complies with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). GAAP
includes all relevant Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) pronouncements. In the
government-wide financial statements and the fund financial statements for the proprietary funds,
Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) pronouncements and Accounting Principles Board (APB)
opinions issued on or before November 30, 1989, have been applied unless those pronouncements conflict
with or contradict GASB pronouncements, in which case, GASB prevails. For enterprise funds, GASB
Statement Nos. 20 and 34 provide the City the option of electing to apply FASB pronouncements issued
after November 30, 1989. The City has elected not to apply those pronouncements. The accounting and
reporting framework and the more significant accounting policies are discussed in subsequent subsections
of this Note. The financial reporting entity, basis of accounting, and other significant policies employed
by the City are summarized as follows:
Financial Reporting Entity
The City operates under a City Manager form of government. The Board of Commissioners consists of a
Mayor and four Commissioners elected at large by the citizens on a non-partisan basis. As required by
generally accepted accounting principles, the financial statements of the reporting entity include those of
the City of Paducah (the primary government) and its component units. The component units discussed
below are included in the City’s reporting entity because of the significance of their operational or
financial relationships with the City.
Blended Component Units
The following component units have been presented as blended component units because the component
unit’s governing body is substantially the same as the governing body of the City, or the component unit
provides services almost entirely to the primary government.
Paducah Public Improvement Corporation - The Mayor and Commissioners serve as the governing
body for the Corporation. Although it is legally separate from the City, the Paducah Public
Improvement Corporation is reported as if it were part of the primary government because its sole
purpose is to finance long-term debt since the City may not legally obligate itself beyond one year.
Police and Firefighters’ Pension Fund - This retirement fund was established for the benefit of the
police and firemen of the City. It is administered by a Board of Trustees consisting of the Mayor, City
Finance Director and representatives of the Police and Fire Departments. The Board is authorized to
establish benefit levels and to approve actuarial assumptions used in the determination of contribution
levels.
Discretely Presented Component Units
The component unit column in the basic financial statements includes the financial data of the City’s other
component units. They are reported in a separate column to emphasize that they are legally separate from
the City. The following component units are included in the reporting entity because of their financial
relationship with the City.

Community College System which is now administered by the Kentucky Community and Technical
College System. Under this system, the University of Kentucky receives the monies from student
tuition, fees and other related income and provides the financing for the operational budget of the
College. A tax levied and collected by the City is a primary revenue source for the College. These
funds, as well as gifts and grants made to the College, may be used for the acquisition or improvement
of property or to finance programs beyond the level of those normally provided by community colleges
in the University of Kentucky system. PJC is a legally separate entity and is not financially
accountable to the City. This organization is not included as a component unit of the City.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2005
Note 1 - Summary of Significant Account Policies:
Basis of Presentation
Government-wide Financial Statements
The Statement of Net Assets and Statement of Activities display information about the reporting
government as a whole. They include all funds of the reporting entity except for fiduciary funds. The
statements distinguish between governmental and business-type activities. Governmental activities
generally are financed through taxes, intergovernmental revenues, and other nonexchange revenues.
Business-type activities are financed in whole or in part by fees charged to external parties for goods or
services.
Fund Financial Statements
Fund financial statements of the reporting entity are organized into funds, each of which is considered to
be separate accounting entities. Each fund is accounted for by providing a separate set of self-balancing
accounts that constitute its assets, liabilities, fund equity, revenues, and expenditure/expenses. Funds are
organized into three major categories: governmental, proprietary, and fiduciary. An emphasis is placed
on major funds within the governmental and proprietary categories. A fund is considered major if it is the
primary operating fund of the City or meets the following criteria:
a. Total assets, liabilities, revenues, or expenditures/expenses of that individual governmental or
enterprise fund are at least ten percent of the corresponding total for all funds of that category or
type; and
b. Total assets, liabilities, revenues, or expenditures/expenses of the individual governmental fund or
enterprise fund are at least five percent of the corresponding total for all governmental and enterprise
funds combined.
The funds of the financial reporting entity are described below:
Governmental funds are those funds through which most governmental functions typically are financed.
The measurement focus of governmental funds is on the sources, uses and balance of current financial
resources. The City has presented the following major governmental funds:
General Fund - To account for resources traditionally associated with governments which are not
required to be accounted for in another fund.
General Capital Improvements – To account for the acquisition or construction of major capital projects
other than those financed by proprietary fund operations and special assessments.
Downtown Capital Improvements – To account for the acquisition or construction of major capital
facilities related to the development of downtown Paducah.
The City has presented the following major proprietary fund:
Solid Waste Fund – To account for the provision of refuse services to the residents of the City.
Additionally, the City reports the internal service funds which are used to account for the fleet
management services, self funded property and casualty self insurance and self funded health and
disability insurance provided to departments of the city.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2005
Note 1 - Summary of Significant Account Policies:
Fiduciary funds, which are not included in government-wide statements, include Police and Firefighters’
Retirement Fund, Appointive Employees’ Pension Fund, two private-purpose trusts, and two agency
funds.
Measurement Focus
Measurement focus is a term used to describe “which” transactions are recorded within the various
financial statements. Basis of accounting refers to “when” transactions are recorded regardless of the
measurement focus applied.
On the government-wide Statement of Net Assets and the Statement of Activities, both governmental and
business-type activities are presented using the economic resources measurement focus as defined in item
b. below.
In the fund financial statements, the “current financial resources” measurement focus or the “economic
resources” measurement focus is used as appropriate:
a. All governmental funds utilize a “current financial resources” measurement focus. Only current
financial assets and liabilities are generally included on their balance sheets. Their operating
statements present sources and uses of available spendable financial resources during a given period.
These funds use fund balance as their measure of available spendable financial resources at the end
of the period.
b. The proprietary fund utilizes an “economic resources” measurement focus. The accounting
objectives of this measurement focus are the determination of operating income, changes in net
assets (or cost recovery), financial position, and cash flows. All assets and liabilities (whether
current or noncurrent) associated with their activities are reported. Proprietary fund equity is
classified as net assets.
c. Agency funds are not involved in the measurement of results of operations; therefore, measurement
focus is not applicable to them.
Basis of Accounting
In the government-wide Statement of Net Assets and Statement of Activities, both governmental and
business-type activities are presented using the accrual basis of accounting. Under the accrual basis of
accounting, revenues are recognized when earned and expenses are recorded when the liability is incurred
or economic asset used.
In the fund financial statements, governmental funds are presented on the modified accrual basis of
accounting. Under this modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when “measurable
and available.” Measurable means knowing or being able to reasonably estimate the amount. Available
means collectible within the current period or within sixty days after year end. Expenditures (including
capital outlay) are recorded when the related fund liability is incurred, except for general obligation bond
principal and interest which are reported when due. Agency funds are presented using the accrual basis of
accounting.
All proprietary funds utilize the accrual basis of accounting. Under the accrual basis of accounting,
revenues are recognized when earned and expenses are recorded when the liability is incurred or economic
asset used.

CITY OF PADUCAH, KENTUCKY
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2005
Note 1 - Summary of Significant Account Policies:
Revenues – Exchange and Non-Exchange Transactions
Revenue resulting from exchange transactions, in which each party gives and receives essentially equal
value, is recorded on the accrual basis when the exchange takes place. On a modified accrual basis,
revenue is recorded in the fiscal year in which the resources are measurable and become available.
Available means that the resources will be collected within the current fiscal year or are expected to be
collected soon enough thereafter to be used to pay liabilities of the current fiscal year. For the City,
available means expected to be received within sixty days of year end.
Non-exchange transactions, in which the City receives value without directly giving equal value in return,
include employee license taxes, property taxes, grants, entitlements and donations. The City considers
property taxes as available if they are collected within sixty days after year end. Revenue from grants,
entitlements, and donations is recognized in the year in which all eligibility requirements have been
satisfied. Eligibility requirements include timing requirements, which specify the year when the resources
are required to be used or the year when use is first permitted, matching requirements, in which the City
must provide local resources to be used for a specified purpose, and expenditure requirements, in which
the resources are provided to the City on a reimbursement basis. On a modified accrual basis, revenue
from non-exchange transactions must also be available before it can be recognized.
The revenues susceptible to accrual are taxes, intergovernmental, employer and employees’ contributions
to trust funds, interest revenue and charges for services. Permit revenues are not susceptible to accrual
because generally they are not measurable until received in cash.
Unearned revenue
The City reports unearned revenue on its statement of net assets. Unearned revenues arise when potential
revenue does not meet both the “measurable” and “available” criteria for recognition in the current period.
Unearned revenues also arise when resources are received by the City before it has a legal claim to them,
as when grant monies are received prior to the incurrence of qualifying expenditures. In subsequent
periods, when both revenue recognition criteria are met, or when the City has a legal claim to the
resources, the liability for unearned revenue is removed from the statement of net assets and revenue is
recognized.
Budgets and Budgetary Accounting
The City follows these procedures in establishing the budgetary data reflected in these financial
statements:
1. Prior to July, the City Manager submits to the City Commission a proposed operating budget for the
fiscal year commencing on July 1. The operating budget includes proposed expenditures and the
means of financing those.
2. Public hearings are conducted by the City to obtain taxpayer comments.
3. Prior to July, the budget is legally enacted through passage of an ordinance.
4. The City Manager is authorized to transfer budgeted amounts between department line items;
however, any revisions that alter the total expenditures of any department must be approved by the
City Commission.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2005
Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
5. Formal budgetary integration is employed as a management control device during the year and the
budget is legally adopted. Budget amendments are also legally adopted.
6. The budget is adopted on a basis (budget basis), which differs from generally accepted accounting
principles (GAAP basis).
Encumbrance accounting, under which purchase orders, contracts, and other commitments for the
expenditure of monies are recorded in order to reserve that portion of the applicable appropriation, is
employed as an extension of formal budgetary integration in the General Fund, Special Revenue Funds,
Debt Service Fund, and Capital Projects Funds. In accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles (GAAP), encumbrances outstanding at year end are reported as reservations of fund balances
since they do not constitute expenditures or liabilities. There are no encumbrances at June 30, 2005.
Cash and Investments
The City Council updated and adopted formal deposit and investment policies in January 2001. These
policies apply to all City funds not contained in public trusts. Pension trust fund has investment policies
separately approved by their oversight board. The private purpose trust has no adopted deposit and
investment policy.
For the purpose of the Statement of Net Assets, “cash and cash equivalents” includes all demand and
savings accounts of the City. For the purpose of the proprietary fund Statement of Cash Flows, “cash and
cash equivalents” include all demand and savings accounts, and certificates of deposit or short-term
investments with an original maturity of three months or less.
Investments are reported at fair value which is determined using selected bases. Short-term investments
are reported at cost, which approximates fair value. Securities traded on a national or international
exchange are valued at the last reported sales price at current exchange rates. Managed funds related to the
pension and private purpose trust funds not listed on an established market are reported at estimated fair
value as determined by the respective fund managers based on quoted sales prices of the underlying
securities. Cash deposits and certificates of deposits are reported at carrying amount which reasonably
estimates fair value. Additional cash and investment disclosures are presented in Note 3.
Receivables
In the government-wide statements, receivables consist of all revenues earned at year end and not yet
received. Major receivable balances for the governmental activities include property taxes, employee
earnings taxes, business licenses, insurance premiums taxes, franchise taxes and grant revenue. Business-
type activities report utilities and interest earnings as their major receivables. The government-wide
statements also include general obligation notes receivable related to the general obligation bonds
outstanding as described in Note 3.
In the fund financial statements, material receivables in governmental funds include revenue accruals such
as franchise tax, employee earnings taxes, business licenses, insurance premiums taxes, grants and other
similar intergovernmental revenues since they are usually both measurable and available. Nonexchange
transactions collectible but not available are deferred in the fund financial statements in accordance with
modified accrual, but not deferred in the government-wide financial statements in accordance with the
accrual basis. Interest and investment earnings are recorded when earned only if paid within sixty days
since they would be considered both measurable and available. Proprietary fund material receivables
consist of all revenues earned at year end and not yet received. Utility accounts receivable and interest
earnings compose the majority of proprietary fund receivables. Allowances for uncollectible accounts
receivable are based upon historical trends and the periodic aging of accounts receivable.

CITY OF PADUCAH, KENTUCKY
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2005
Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
Interfund Receivables and Payables
During the course of operations, numerous transactions occur between individual funds that may result in
amounts owed between funds. Those related to goods and services type transactions are classified as “due
to and from other funds.” Short-term interfund loans are reported as “interfund receivables and payables.”
Long-term interfund loans (noncurrent portion) are reported as “advances from and to other funds.”
Interfund receivables and payables between funds within governmental activities are eliminated in the
Statement of Net Assets. See Note 3 for details of interfund transactions, including receivables and
payables at year end.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at cost on a first-in, first-out basis.
Fixed Assets
The accounting treatment over property, plant, and equipment (fixed assets) depends on whether the assets
are used in governmental fund operations or proprietary fund operations and whether they are reported in
the government-wide or fund financial statements.
Government-wide Statement
In the government-wide financial statements, fixed assets are accounted for as capital assets. All fixed
assets are valued at historical cost, or estimated historical cost if actual is unavailable, except for donated
fixed assets which are recorded at their estimated fair value at the date of donation. Estimated historical
cost was used to value the majority of the assets acquired prior to June 30, 2004.
Assets capitalized have an original cost of $500 or more prior to July 1, 1999, and $2,500 or more after
July 1, 1999. Prior to July 1, 2002, governmental funds’ infrastructure assets were not capitalized. These
assets have been valued at estimated historical cost.
Capital assets of the primary government are depreciated over the estimated useful lives using the straight-
line method. The estimated useful lives are as follows:
Land improvements 10-20 Years
Buildings 30-60 Years
Building improvements 3- 7 Years
Infrastructure 15-20 Years
Equipment 5-25 Years
Furnishings and fixtures 3-10 Years
Vehicles 3- 9 Years
Fund Financial Statements
In the fund financial statements, fixed assets used in governmental fund operations are accounted for as
capital outlay expenditures of the governmental fund upon acquisition. Fixed assets used in proprietary
fund operations are accounted for the same as in the government-wide statements.

CITY OF PADUCAH, KENTUCKY
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2005
Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
Restricted Assets
Certain proceeds of enterprise fund revenue bonds, as well as certain resources set aside for their
repayment, are classified as restricted assets on the balance sheet because their use is limited to applicable
bond covenants.
Compensated Absences
Accumulated unpaid vacation, sick pay, and other employee benefit amounts are recorded as long-term
debt in the government-wide statements. The current portion of accrued compensated absences is
estimated based on historical trends. In the fund financial statements, governmental funds report only the
compensated absence liability payable from expendable available financial resources, while the proprietary
funds report the liability as it is incurred.
Accumulations for vacation pay are restricted to a maximum of 50 days and provide vesting rights upon
completion of six months service. Accumulations for sick pay are restricted to a maximum of 150 days
and provide payment to employees or beneficiaries for accumulations in excess of 50 days and up to 120
days upon death or retirement from City service.
Long-Term Debt
The accounting treatment of long-term debt depends on whether the assets are used in governmental fund
operations or proprietary fund operations and whether they are reported in the government-wide or fund
financial statements.
All long-term debt to be repaid from governmental and business-type resources is reported as liabilities in
the government-wide statements. The long-term debt consists primarily of bonds payable and accrued
compensated absences.
Long-term debt for governmental funds is not reported as liabilities in the fund financial statements. The
debt proceeds are reported as other financing sources and payment of principal and interest as
expenditures. The accounting for proprietary funds is the same in the fund statements as it is in the
government-wide statements.
Equity Classifications
Government-wide Statements
Equity is classified as net assets and displayed in three components:
a. Invested in capital assets, net of related debt – Consists of capital assets including restricted capital
assets, net of accumulated depreciation and reduced by the outstanding balances of any bonds,
mortgages, notes, or other borrowings that are attributable to the acquisition, construction, or
improvement of those assets.
b. Restricted net assets – Consists of net assets with constraints placed on the use either by (1) external
groups such as creditors, grantors, contributors, or laws or regulations of other governments; or (2)
law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation.

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
c. Unrestricted net assets – All other net assets that do not meet the definition of “restricted” or
“invested in capital assets, net of related debt.”
Fund Statements
Governmental fund equity is classified as fund balance. Fund balance is further classified as reserved and
unreserved. Proprietary fund equity is classified the same as in the government-wide statements.
Interfund Transactions
Interfund services provided and used are accounted for as revenues, expenditures or expenses.
Transactions that constitute reimbursements to a fund for expenditures/expenses initially made from it that
are properly applicable to another fund, are recorded as expenditures/expenses in the reimbursing fund and
as reductions of expenditures/expenses in the fund that is reimbursed.
All other interfund transactions are reported as transfers. Nonrecurring or nonroutine permanent transfers
of equity are reported as residual equity transfers. All other interfund transfers are reported as operating
transfers.
Program Revenues
Amounts reported as program revenues include 1) charges to customers or applicants for goods, services,
or privileges provided, 2) operating grants and contributions, and 3) capital grants and contributions,
including special assessments. Internally dedicated resources are reported as general revenues rather than
as program revenues. Likewise, general revenues include all taxes.
Operating and Non-Operating Revenues and Expenses – Proprietary Funds
Operating revenues and expenses for proprietary funds are those that result from providing services and
producing and delivering goods and/or services. It also includes all revenue and expenses not related to
capital and related financing, noncapital financing, or investing activities. Operating expenses for the
enterprise and internal service funds include the cost of sales and services, administrative expenses, and
depreciation on capital assets. All revenues and expenses not meeting this definition are reported as
nonoperating revenues and expenses.
Expenditures/Expenses
In the government-wide financial statements, expenses are classified by function for both governmental
and business-type activities.
In the fund financial statements, expenditures are classified as follows:
Governmental Funds - by character: Current (further classified by function)
Debt Service
Capital Outlay
Proprietary Fund - by operating and nonoperating
In the fund financial statements, governmental funds report expenditures of financial resources.
Proprietary funds report expenses relating to use of economic resources.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2005
Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
Interfund Transfers
Permanent reallocations of resources between funds of the reporting entity are classified as interfund
transfers. For the purposes of the Statement of Activities, all interfund transfers between individual
governmental funds have been eliminated.
Statement of Cash Flows
In September, 1989, the Governmental Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 9, Reporting
Cash Flows of Proprietary and Nonexpendable Trust Funds and Governmental Entities That Use
Proprietary Fund Accounting. The City adopted the provisions of the Statement in its 1991 financial
statements. For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the City considers all certificates of deposit and
all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash
equivalents.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles
requires management to make assumptions that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly,
actual results could differ from those estimates.
Stewardship, Compliance, and Accountability
By its nature as a local government unit, the City and its component units are subject to various federal,
state, and local laws and contractual regulations. An analysis of the City’s compliance with significant
laws and regulations and demonstration of its stewardship over City resources follows.
Fund Accounting Requirements
The City complies with all state and local laws and regulations requiring the use of separate funds.
Revenue Restrictions
The City has various restrictions placed over certain revenue sources from state or local requirements. The
primary restricted revenue sources include.
Revenue Source Legal Restrictions of Use
Kentucky Police Incentive Grant Salaries
Kentucky Fire Incentive Grant Salaries
HOME Investment Partnerships Grant Construction of Low-income
Rental Units
Emergency Communication Revenue E-911 Emergency Services
County Bed Tax Debt Obligations
Kentucky Transportation Cabinet Street Repairs and Maintenance
Kentucky Housing Corporation Façade Loans
Other Grants Grant Program Expenditures
For the year ended June 30, 2005, the City complied, in all material respects, with these revenue
restrictions.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2005
Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
Debt Restrictions and Covenants
The City may not incur any indebtedness that would require payment from resources beyond the current
fiscal year revenue without first obtaining voter approval. For the year ended June 30, 2005, the City
incurred no such indebtedness.
Note 2 – Property Taxes:
The City bills and collects its own property taxes. The City elects to use the annual property assessment
prepared by McCracken County as its base to apply the property tax rate. According to Kentucky Revised
Statutes, the assessment date for the City must conform to the assessment date of McCracken County, and
the annual increase in the property tax levy cannot exceed 4%. City property tax revenues are recorded as
a receivable when assessed because the City has an enforceable legal claim to the resources. At this time,
the receivable is offset by unearned revenue. Property tax revenues are recognized during the period for
which they are levied.
The due dates and collection period for all property taxes, exclusive of vehicle taxes, for the fiscal year
ended June 30, 2005, are as follows:

Investment Policies
City Policy
Credit Risk is the risk that an issuer or other counterparty to an investment will not fulfill its obligations.
Generally, the City’s investing activities are managed under the custody of the City’s Finance Director.
Investing is performed in accordance with investment policies adopted by the City Council complying
with State Statutes. In accordance with the City’s investment policy and the State Statutes, the City may
invest funds temporarily in excess of operating needs in the following:
Kentucky Revised Statutes (KRS 66.480) authorize the City to invest in:
1. Obligations of the U.S. Treasury, agencies, and instrumentalities, including obligations subject to
repurchase agreements, provided delivery of obligations subject to repurchase agreements are held
by the City or through an authorized agent;
2. Obligations and contracts for future delivery or purchase of obligations backed by the full faith and
credit of the United States or a United State government agency;
3. Obligations of any corporation of the United States government;
4. Bonds or certificates of indebtedness of the state of Kentucky and of its agencies and
instrumentalities;
5. Certificates of deposit issued by or other interest-bearing accounts of any bank or savings and loan
institution which are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or similar entity or which
are collateralized, to the extent uninsured, by any obligations permitted by section 41.240(4) of the
Kentucky Revised Statutes;
6. Securities issued by a state or local government, or any instrumentality or agency thereof, in the
United States, and rated in one of the three highest categories by a national recognized rating
agency.
Interest Rate Risk is the risk that changes in interest rates will adversely affect the fair value of an
investment. The City policy provides that to the extent practicable, investments are matched with
anticipated cash flows. Investments are diversified to minimize the risk of loss resulting from over-
concentration of assets in a specific maturity period, a single issuer, or an individual class of securities.
Unless matched to a specific cash flow, investments are not, in general, made in securities maturing more
than five years from the date of purchase. Surplus cash may be invested in securities exceeding five years
if the maturity of such investments is made to coincide as nearly as practicable with the expected use of
the investment. Concentration of credit risk is the risk of loss attributed to the magnitude of the City’s
investment in a single issuer. The City policy does not specifically address concentration of credit risk.

Pension Trust Policy
The City’s pension trust is the Police and Firefighters’ Pension Fund (PFPF). Investment policy provide
for investment manager(s) who have full discretion of assets allocated to them subject to the overall
investment guidelines set out in the policy. Overall investment guidelines provide for diversification and
allow investment in domestic and international common stocks, fixed income securities, and cash
equivalents. Custodial credit risk is addressed by the policy providing for the engagement of a custodian
who accepts possession of securities for safekeeping; collects and disburses income; collects principal of
sold, matured, or called items; and provides periodic accounting to the pension board.
Asset allocation guideline for the plan is as follows:
PFPF Retirement Plan
Minimum Target Maximum
Equities 35% 50% 65%
Fixed Income 35% 50% 65%
The retirement plan addresses credit risk and concentration of credit risk with a policy that prohibits
investment of more than 5% of its assets in the securities of any one issuer with the exception of U.S.
government. Policy further prohibits investment of more than 20% in any one market sector. No more than
10% of corporate debt securities in the fixed income portfolio may be rated below-investment grade.
Commercial paper must be rated A1, P1.
Interest rate risk is addressed by the policy requiring the plan manager(s) to maintain both diversification
and a predictable and dependent source of current income. Fixed income investments are flexibly allocated
among maturities of different lengths.
Private Purpose Trust
The private purpose trust does not have a formal investment policy. The City established the trust in
accordance with Kentucky Revised Statutes. The trust provides for an investment manager who has full
discretion of assets allocated to him subject to the provisions of the trust agreement. The trust invests in
domestic and international mutual funds, fixed income securities, U.S. treasury securities, and cash and
equivalents.

Landfill Closure and Post-Closure Costs
The County of McCracken, Kentucky (County) closed the local landfill to the public on June 30, 1995.
The County must comply with established state and federal landfill closure procedures and must perform
maintenance and monitoring procedures at the site for thirty years after closure. The 30-year period will
begin upon approval from the Commonwealth of Kentucky regarding the environmental condition of the
landfill site. As of June 30, 2005, approval had not yet been granted. The County estimated post-closure
care costs totaling $4,125,000 or $125,000 per year plus 10% for inflation. Actual costs may be higher due
to inflation, changes in technology, or changes in regulations. In the year ending June 30, 2001, the City
entered into an inter-local agreement to share equally the costs for post-closure costs and accordingly, has
recorded a long-term liability for 50% of the estimated closure expense (See Note 10). The City
reimburses the County annually for its share of closure costs incurred during the fiscal year. It is
anticipated that post-closure costs will be paid out of the Solid Waste Fund to the extent that funds are

Report on Internal Control
Over Financial Reporting and on Compliance and Other Matters Based on an Audit
of Financial Statements Performed in Accordance with
Government Auditing Standards
Honorable William F. Paxton, Mayor
Members of the Board of Commissioners
City of Paducah
Paducah, Kentucky
We have audited the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, the
aggregate discretely presented component units, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund
information of the City of Paducah, Kentucky, as of and for the year ended June 30, 2005, which collectively
comprise the City of Paducah, Kentucky’s basic financial statements and have issued our report thereon dated
October 28, 2005. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the
United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing
Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit, we considered the City of Paducah, Kentucky’s internal control over
financial reporting in order to determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on
the financial statements and not to provide assurance on the internal control over financial reporting. Our
consideration of the internal control over financial reporting would not necessarily disclose all matters in the
internal control that are considered to be material weaknesses. A material weakness is a condition in which
the design or operation of one or more of the internal control components does not reduce to a relatively low
level the risk that misstatements caused by error or fraud in amounts that would be material in relation to the
financial statements being audited may occur and not be detected within a timely period by employees in the
normal course of performing their assigned functions. We noted no matters involving the internal control over
financial reporting and its operation that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, we noted other
matters involving the internal control over financial reporting that we have reported to management of the City
of Paducah, Kentucky, in a separate letter dated October 28, 2005.
Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the City of Paducah, Kentucky’s financial statements
are free of material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws,
regulations, contracts and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect
on the determination of financial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with
those provisions was not an objective of our audit and, accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The
results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported
under Government Auditing Standards.
However, we noted certain matters that we reported to management of the City of Paducah, Kentucky, in a
separate letter dated October 28, 2005.
This report is intended for the information and use of the Board of Commissioners of the City of Paducah,
Kentucky, management, others within the organization, and federal awarding agencies and pass-through
entities and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.

Report on Compliance with Requirements Applicable
to Each Major Program and On Internal Control Over
Compliance in Accordance with OMB Circular A-133
Honorable William F. Paxton, Mayor
Members of the Board of Commissioners
City of Paducah
Paducah, Kentucky
Compliance
We have audited the compliance of the City of Paducah, Kentucky, with the types of compliance requirements
described in the U.S. Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-133 Compliance Supplement that
are applicable to each of its major federal programs for the year ended June 30, 2005. The City of Paducah,
Kentucky’s major federal program is identified in the summary of auditor’s results section of the
accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs. Compliance with the requirements of laws,
regulations, contracts and grants applicable to each of its major federal programs is the responsibility of the
City of Paducah, Kentucky’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the City of Paducah,
Kentucky’s compliance based on our audit.
We conducted our audit of compliance in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United
States of America; the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards,
issued by the Comptroller General of the United States; and OMB Circular A-133, Audits of States, Local
Governments, and Non-Profit Organizations. Those standards and OMB Circular A-133 require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether noncompliance with the types of
compliance requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on a major federal
program occurred. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence about the City of Paducah
Kentucky’s compliance with those requirements and performing such other procedures as we considered
necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Our
audit does not provide a legal determination of the City of Paducah, Kentucky’s compliance with those
requirements.
In our opinion, the City of Paducah, Kentucky complied, in all material respects, with the requirements
referred to above that are applicable to each of its major federal programs for the year ended June 30, 2005.
Internal Control Over Compliance
The management of the City of Paducah, Kentucky, is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective
internal control over compliance with requirements of laws, regulations, contracts and grants applicable to
federal programs. In planning and performing our audit, we considered the City of Paducah, Kentucky’s
internal control over compliance with requirements that could have a direct and material effect on a major
federal program in order to determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on
compliance and to test and report on internal control over compliance in accordance with OMB Circular A-
133.
-133-
Our consideration of the internal control over compliance would not necessarily disclose all matters in the
internal control that might be material weaknesses. A material weakness is a condition in which the design or
operation of one or more of the internal control components does not reduce to a relatively low level the risk
that noncompliance with applicable requirements of laws, regulations, contracts and grants caused by error or
fraud that would be material in relation to a major federal program being audited may occur and not be
detected within a timely period by employees in the normal course of performing their assigned functions. We
noted no matters involving the internal control over compliance and its operation that we consider to be
material weaknesses.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of the Board of Commissioners of the City of
Paducah, Kentucky, management, others within the organization, and federal awarding agencies and pass-
through entities and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.
