DISCUSSIONS:
Communications Manager Pam Spencer provided the following Summaries
Paducah Main Street Update
"Planning Director Nic Hutchison and Paducah Main Street Chairman Jeff Canter provided an
overview of Paducah Main Street successes this year including the appointment of a full nine -
member board of downtown stakeholders. The board recently had a training retreat with Kentucky
Main Street. Canter says 13 new businesses started in 2022 which created 40 new
jobs. Furthermore, downtown saw the addition of 10 new residential units and more than $2 million
in private investment. For 2023, the Paducah Main Street Board would like to focus on enhancing
upper Broadway, between 3rd and 7th Streets."
Stormwater/Roadway Projects Update
"City Engineer Rick Murphy updated the Paducah Board of Commissioners on prominent
storm-water/roadway improvement projects that are underway in Paducah by showing before
and during constriction pictures. All of these projects are scheduled to be completed by the end of
this year.
• Roadways — Several roads are being improved with new pavement and the addition of curbs
and gutters including sections of South 6th Street, Caldwell Street, Husbands Street, 22°d
Street near Elmwood Court, Brooks Stadium Drive, and South 25th Street. South 25th Street
also includes the addition of sidewalks.
November 15, 2022
Buckner Lane Bridge and Crooked Creek Mitigation Project — This project began in late May.
This comprehensive project improves the two-lane section of Buckner Lane between Hansen
Road and Pecan Drive and replaces the dilapidated Buckner Lane bridge over Crooked Creek
near the intersection with Buckner Lake Circle. This project also includes the installation of a
larger box culvert under Oakcrest Drive near the intersection with Buckner Lane. This project
will improve stormwater conditions in the area by reducing the number of times Crooked
Creek comes out of its banks due to severe storm events. Also, the drainage ditch adjacent to
Buckner Lane is being improved by lining it with concrete to reduce overgrowth and to
enhance stormwater flow by improved efficiency. The last phase of the project will be
improving the Buckner Lane roadway by increasing the lane widths, adding four -foot wide
shoulders, and paving."
ARPA Fund Allocation Discussion
"City Manager Daron Jordan discussed the funding allocations for the approximately $6.55 million
in American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (ARPA) funds that the City of Paducah is receiving. The City
has obligated $4 million of the $6.55 million to stormwater projects including the Buckner Lane
Bridge and South 25th Street projects discussed earlier in the meeting. Additional committed
projects include funding to the Industrial Development Authority ($98,928), ViWinTech ($172,000)
to assist with the demolition of the former Residential Care Center, renovation of the Robert Cheng
Civic Center ($1.8 million), playground equipment for Robert Coleman Park ($45,000), and
emergency demolition services for a portion of the Katterjohn Building ($80,000). Improving the
floodwall lighting ($45,000) is the latest project identified for ARPA funding. At this time,
approximately $295,000 remains uncommitted."

adopted following the February strategic planning retreat. The 10 priority items are listed below in
no particular order:

Designated Main Street communities (Main Street Director and the Mayor/City Manager) must sign this document
and return to the Kentucky Main Street no later than January 15, 2023, to remain active in the program.
A signed document confirms that the local Main Street program has a thorough understanding of the benefits and

Program Background
Nationally:
Main Street America 'has been helping revitalize older and historic commercial districts for more than 40 years. Today
it is a network of more than 1,200 neighborhoods and communities, rural and urban, who share both a commitment to
place and to building stronger communities through preservation -based economic development. Main Street America is
a program of the nonprofit National Main Street Center, a subsidiary of the National Trust for Historic Preservation.
Main Street America is a mark of distinction. It is a seal, recognizing that participating programs, organizations, and
communities are part of a national movement with a proven track record for celebrating community character,
preserving local history, and generating impressive economic returns. Since 1980, over 2,000 communities have been
part of Main Street, bringing renewed energy and activity to America's downtowns and commercial districts, securing
more than $89.57 billion in new investment creating 687,321 net newjobs and rehabilitating 303,836 buildings.
Main Street America is a time -tested strategy. Main Street America communities are encouraged to make use of a time -
tested approach, known as the Main Street Approach. The Main Street Approach is rooted in a commitment to broad-
based community engagement, a holistic understanding of the factors that impact the quality of life in a community, and
strategic focus on the core principles of downtown and neighborhood revitalization: Economic Vitality, Quality Design,
Effective Promotion, and Sustainable Organization. For more information, visit www.mainstreet.org.
In Kentucky:
The Kentucky Main Street (KYMS) is a program of the Kentucky Heritage Council who is the licensed agency that is
charged with administering the Main Street program throughout the state. The agency is committed to following the
program guidelines and licensing agreement as outlined by the National Main Street Center and signed by the Kentucky
Main Street program.
2 1 P a g e 2023 ANNUAL AGREEMENT KENTUCKY MAIN STREET® DESIGNATION
The Kentucky Main Street program designates communities as a "Kentucky Main Street community". When designated,
the local city or town government, and specifically the chief elected official, is notified of the designation in addition to the
local program.
Since 1979, many communities have directly benefitted from the Kentucky Main Street program, bringing economic
strength to Kentucky's downtown commercial districts, securing $4.8 billion in new investment creating more than
33,880 net new jobs and 5503 rehabilitating buildings.
Benefits for KY Main Street Communities
Kentucky Main Street communities' benefit from the following:
Partnership:
• Communities selected to participate in the Main Street program become partners with the Kentucky Main Street
program in a long-term, asset-based economic development effort that has proven to have a positive impact on
investment and job creation.
• Main Street communities are limited in number and therefore receive focused and personal attention from KY
Main Street staff.
• Kentucky communities are selected through a competitive process and only a few are designated; therefore, Main
Street designation is an honor bestowed upon only a few special communities.
• In the first several years of a local Main Street program, the state of Kentucky invests approximately $50,000 in on-
site visits, training, and technical assistance. After the initial start-up phase, the state annually invests
approximately $5,000 in each Main Street community in the form of ongoing town -specific technical assistance,
and statewide and on-site training for directors and volunteers.
Training:
• Main Street communities are eligible to attend and participate in the KY Main Street Conference, KY Main Street
Basic Training, Board and Committee Training, KY Main Street Directors' Meetings, Regional Meetings, and subject
specific workshops.
• Kentucky Main Street communities attend two required state conferences each year.
Technical Assistance:
• The Kentucky Main Street program staff guides designated communities through a strategic planning process
which helps communities create a vision, develop economic development strategies that will transform
downtown, and produce action plans so that limited resources are focused, and results are magnified.
• The Kentucky Main Street staff guides participating communities through board development, volunteer
development and downtown director training.

5 ) P a g e 2023 ANNUAL AGREEMENT KENTUCKY MAIN STREET® DESIGNATION
4. Establish broad-based support for the commercial district revitalization process with strong support from both
the public and private sectors.
• The Main Street organization should have the active participation of various stakeholders at the
committee and board levels.
• Participants should contribute financial, in-kind, and volunteer support for the revitalization program.
• Participants should look for, and act on, opportunities to make connections between other programs or

constantly refreshing its pool of volunteers and involving new people each year.
• The revitalization program has broad-based philosophical support from the community.
• Municipal government demonstrates a philosophical commitment to commercial district revitalization.
S. Establish and maintain an active Board of Directors and Committees using the Main Street Four -Point Approach®
and develop a comprehensive Main Street Transformation Work Plan using the Main Street Four -Point
Approach®.Main Street revitalization by nature is a community -driven process. Therefore, community members
must take an active role in leading and implementing positive change. While the Director is responsible for
facilitating the work of volunteers, this staff member is not tasked with single-handedly revitalizing the
commercial district. The direct involvement of an active board of directors and committees are keys to success.
If a Main Street organization is housed within another entity (e.g., a community development corporation), it is
still important to have its own board of directors and committee structure.
• The board is a working, functional board that understands its roles and responsibilities and is willing to
put forth the effort to make the program succeed.
• Committee members assume responsibility for the implementation of the work plan.
• The program has a dedicated governing body, its own rules of operation, its own budget, and its own
bylaws, and is empowered to carry out Main Street's mission, even if the Main Street program is a part
of a larger organization.
• The board has well-managed, regular monthly meetings, with an agenda and regular distribution of
minutes.
• Committees have regularly scheduled meetings with an agenda that addresses the committee work
plan.
6. Establish an annual transformation work plan/planning process for downtown.
A comprehensive annual work plan provides a detailed blueprint for the Main Street program's activities;
reinforces the program's accountability both within the organization and in the broader community; and
provides measurable objectives by which the program can track its progress.
• The work plan should contain a balance of activities in each of the four broad program areas that
comprise the Main Street approach — Economic Vitality, Quality Design, Effective Promotion, and
Sustainable Organization.
• The work plan should contain measurable objectives, including timelines, budgets, desired outcomes,
and specific responsibilities.
• The work plan should be reviewed, and a new one should be developed annually.
• Ideally, the full board and committees will be involved in developing the annual work plan. At a
minimum, the full board should adopt/approve the annual work plan.
• The work plan should distribute work activities and tasks to a broad range of volunteers and program
participants.
6 1 P a g e 2023 ANNUAL AGREEMENT KENTUCKY MAIN STREET® DESIGNATION
• There has been significant progress in each of the four points based on the work plan submitted for the
previous year.
Adopt and exhibit a Historic Preservation Ethic and design management program.
Historic preservation is central to the Main Street program's purpose and is what makes historic and traditional
commercial districts authentic places. Historic preservation involves saving, rehabilitating, and finding new uses
for existing buildings, as well as intensifying the uses of the existing buildings, through building improvement
projects and policy and regulatory changes that make it easier to develop property within the commercial
district. Good buildings bring good businesses and enhance the quality of life and sense of place for locals and
visitors.
• The program has, or is working toward putting in place, an active and effective design management
program (which may include financial incentives, design assistance, regulatory relief, design review,
education, and other forms of management).
• The program encourages appropriate building renovation, restoration, and rehabilitation projects.
• When faced with a potential demolition or substantial structural alteration of a significant, historic, or
traditional building in the Main Street district, the program actively works to prevent the demolition or
alteration, including working with appropriate partners at the state, local, or national level to attempt to
stay or alter the proposed activity; developing alternative strategies for the building's use; and/or
educating local leaders about the importance of retaining existing buildings and maintaining their
architectural integrity.
• The program works to find creative adaptive use, financing, and physical rehabilitation solutions for
preserving old buildings.
• The program recognizes the importance of planning and land -use policies that support the revitalization
of existing commercial centers and works toward putting planning and land -use policies in place that
make it as easy (if not easier) to develop property within the commercial district as it is outside the
commercial district. Similarly, it ensures that financing, technical assistance, and other incentives are
available to facilitate the process of attracting investment to the historic commercial district.
• The program builds public awareness for the commercial district's historic buildings and for good design.
8. Demonstrate an established vision for downtown and a mission that defines the role of the organization that will
manage the downtown initiative.
• The organization has an appropriate written mission statement.
• The mission statement is reviewed annually and updated as appropriate.
• The organization has an appropriate written vision statement for downtown that is reviewed annually
and updated as appropriate. The vision statement should define the economic potential of downtown.
9. New Main Street Director attendance at Main Street Orientation within three to six months of start date (if not
previously attended).
10. Fund the local Main Street program through both public and private partnerships at a level allowing for full
implementation of the program based on the Four -Point Approach® and the adopted annual work plan.
The Main Street program's budget should be adequate to achieve the program's goals. The dollar amount that is
"adequate" for a program budget may vary.
0 The budget should be specifically dedicated to revitalizing the commercial district.

building located on the city block bounded by Second Street, Broadway, North Water Street, and Jefferson

Category: Municipal Order
Staff Work By:
Presentation By:
Background Information: On April 24, 2019, the City entered into a pre -development agreement with
Weyland Ventures to undertake site due diligence and program development for a boutique hotel, parking,
open space and mixed use residential buildings. All elements of the pre -development agreement were
completed including: Market Analysis, Financial Analysis, Design, Site Information, Phase I environmental
Review, Geotechnical Analysis, Parking Assessment, and gaining stakeholder input. The City Commission
then approved the original development agreement on July 28, 2020. Since the execution of the original
development agreement, economic and labor conditions caused delays to the advancement of the project.
However, Weyland Ventures continued to proceed with the project and meet milestones within the parameters
of the executed development agreement.
Now that the project is at the point of proceeding with construction, we are proposing the original development
agreement be amended to establish an updated document as the project enters the next phase. The Amendment
also allows for the city to not be responsible for paying upfront costs associated with environmental
remediation, and instead will be applied as a credit towards the purchase of the two (2) tracts of land. The
purchase price for Tract I is $141,000 which is where the boutique Hotel facilities will be constructed. And the
purchase price for Tract III is $155,000 which is where the mixed-use facilities will be located. The amended
also provides additional protections for the City and its assets as the project moves forward.

Short Title: Amend the Transient Room Tax Ordinance - L. PARISH
Category: Ordinance
Staff Work By: Lindsay Parish, Daron Jordan, Denton Law Firm
Presentation By: Lindsay Parish
Background Information: House Bill 8 was a KLC legislative initiative passed during the 2022 legislative
session. The bill remedies a long-standing transient room tax collection gap that omitted online travel
companies. Effective Jan. 1, 2023, cities that impose a transient room tax to fund a tourist and convention
commission can now assess their transient room tax on rental accommodations facilitated by online travel
companies pursuant to KRS 91A.345 and KRS 91A.390(1)(b). All short-term rentals, brokers, and companies
that arrange rental accommodations within city boundaries are now responsible for collecting the tax.
This action amends the current Paducah Transient Room Tax to ensure that the City can take advantage of the
statutory changes. The new language clarifies that the transient room tax applies to rent for a "suite, room,
rooms, cabins, lodgings, campsites, or other accommodations charged by any hotel, motel, inn, tourist camp,
tourist cabin, campgrounds, recreational vehicle parks, or any other place in which accommodations are
regularly furnished to transients...." This ordinance will become effective January 1, 2023.
McCracken County Fiscal Court also intends to adopt the updated language.
