CITY MANAGER REPORT
Two topics were presented during the City Manager's report. City Engineer Rick Murphy
gave a presentation on the riverfront development. Fire Chief Kyle gave a presentation
on the Joint Public Safety Facility Concept Design.
For more details regarding the presentations, excerpts follow from the Paducah City
Commission Meeting Highlights, prepared by Pam Spencer, Public Information Officer.
Joint Public Safety Facility Concept Design
Over the past several months, the Police and Fire Departments have been researching the
possibility of constructing a joint police -fire headquarters. Fire Chief Steve Kyle briefed
the Mayor and Commissioners about the plan to issue a request for qualifications (RFQ)
for a proposed design concept for the facility. Currently, the fire headquarters is in a
facility on Washington Street that was constructed in 1967 while the police headquarters
is on Broadway in a 1955 -era building. Chief Kyle says the RFQ would help in the
decision process by presenting comparable images of similar projects, provide cost
estimates and artist renderings, provide site selection criteria, and analyze the police and
fire department requirements that would be applicable to a joint facility.
Riverfront Project Update
City Engineer -Public Works Director Rick Murphy updated the Mayor and
Commissioners on the status of the Riverfront Redevelopment Project. Currently, bids
are being requested for the Ohio River Boat Launch project with a bid opening scheduled
for March 25. That portion of the project consists of the construction of a five -lane boat
ramp and parking area for more than 100 vehicles and trailers on the river side of the
floodwall at North 6th and Burnett Streets. The project also will involve road
improvements along Burnett Street and the redesign of the intersection at North 6th and
Burnett. One of the next steps in the Riverfront Redevelopment Project will be to
advertise this year for bids for the construction of 12 large guide poles for a gangway and
an approximate 3 -acre land mass into the Ohio River just downstream of the existing
Schultz Park. The land mass will need to settle for about a year before walkways and
other amenities can be built. A future project includes the construction of a marina
services building and 400 feet of transient dock. Regarding funding, the City has
available more than $10 million in State and Federal grants. However, the funds are for
specific portions of the Riverfront Project. Murphy says, "The City of Paducah has
received several pools of money from several agencies which makes this project very
complicated."
