provides funding, with $100,000 in support for this fiscal year, toward the program which was
launched to increase the number of high school graduates, increase the number of citizens with
post-secondary education, and improve the quality and skill level of our regional workforce.
So far, more than 2100 students have benefited from the Community Scholarship Program with
more than 1000 graduates. At this meeting, two Community Scholarship Program graduates,
Monyette Drew and Kirsten Meadows, gave their testimonials about the program. They both
mentioned the value of the lifting of the financial burden for their firsttwo years of college. Plus,
they said the environment was conducive to learning with an abundance of support and
encouragement.
The Program motivates students to graduate high school and pursue a higher education by providing
each Paducah and McCracken County high school graduate with scholarship support up to 60 credit
hours to West Kentucky Community & Technical College provided that the student registers for the
program, maintains a minimum grade point average and attendance record, and does not have major
disciplinary problems. The program also receives funds from McCracken County and the Rotary
Club of Paducah in addition to other supporters.

safety grant program will reimburse a city up to $3,000 for prior-approved items/equipment that will reduce
Workers’ Compensation exposures.
The Human Resources Department is requesting $3,000 for partial reimbursement of the purchase of a 66"
mower that can be used on steep slopes and difficult terrain. The 50/50 matching requirement was fulfilled by
the purchase price of the mower, which was $22,389. The mower was purchased on July 17, 2023 and is

By: Hope
Reasons
Background Information: In February of this year, the Uppertown Heritage Foundation was invited to
submit a proposal to the Mellon Foundation for a grant in the amount of $1.34 million. The Mellon Foundation
Humanities in Place Grant Program "supports a fuller, more complex telling of American histories and lived
experiences by deepening the range of how and where our stories are told and by bringing a wider variety of
voices into the public dialogue. Working with media, heritage and public spaces, history museums and other
institutions, and conveners of shared experiences—including the digital or ephemeral—we strive to expand the
public expression of the histories that have made us and the values we hold. Our program works across and
within diverse communities, encouraging bold, innovative rethinking of past practice, as well as visionary new
approaches for how to collectively understand, uplift, and celebrate more complete stories about who we are."
On April 9, 2024, the Paducah Board of Commissioners approved a Municipal Order supporting the Uppertown
Heritage Foundation as the lead applicant for the Mellon Foundation grant with the City of Paducah serving as
the fiscal agent for the grant. However, upon further review by the Mellon Foundation legal department, the
Mellon Foundation has asked that the City of Paducah serve as the applicant for the grant. This would allow the
City to still serve as the fiscal agent and be a "pass through" for the Uppertown Heritage Foundation. The
details of this partnership will be further defined by the completion of a co-stewardship agreement if the grant
is awarded. The City of Paducah is also pledging a $250,000 match for the grant for FY25 contingent upon the
award of the grant and completion of the co-stewardship agreement. Further, the City pledges additional
funding in an amount of $250,000 in FY26 and FY27 contingent upon approval through the annual budgeting
process and approval and successful implementation of a co-stewardship agreement.

CHERRY
Category: Ordinance
Staff Work By: Lindsay
Parish, Greg Cherry
Presentation By: Lindsay
Parish, Steve Kyle
Background Information: On February 27, 2024, the City Commission was asked to review the City's
ordinance regarding the keeping of fowl in the City of Paducah. Staff compared the Paducah Ordinance with
the ordinances of 6 other Kentucky cities and also researched best practices related to keeping fowl inside city
limits. Based on this research, staff has made certain recommendations for changes if the City Commission
wishes to amend the ordinance. The goal of the recommended changes is to allow people to keep fowl on
smaller lots by reducing the distance requirement but strengthening wording around noise, maximum fowl
numbers, and cleanliness, to make sure that the keeping of fowl does not become a nuisance to neighbors.
Recommended changes include:
Proximity - Reduce the distance requirement from another residence from 300 feet to 100 feet.
Maximum Number of Fowl - Most cities set a maximum number of fowl that can be kept on a
property (typically between 5 and 8). Paducah currently does not have any limit on this number. Since
we are reducing proximity requirements, staff recommends limiting the number of fowl to eight (8).
Noise - Noise is already addressed in the current Code section 14-1. Animals that emit excessive noise
are considered a nuisance.
Cleanliness - Strengthen language around cleanliness and maintenance of coops to address any
neighbor concerns about odor and pests. Language has been added that only allows coops in the rear
yard of a property.
Penalty & Abatement - The recommended ordinance updates the penalty section to include a notice of
violation, followed by 30 days to remedy, a fine of not more than $500, and another 30 days to remedy
the issue. If the violation still exists after 60 days from the initial notification, there is an additional fine
of not more than $500 and abatement procedures. A new section has been added for the abatement of
pens and coops. Abatement of fowl-related issues will be in accordance with the McCracken County
Animal Control Ordinance. The City will conduct follow-up inspections every thirty days until the
violation is remedied, with each subsequent inspection incurring an additional $500 fine, not to exceed
$2,500 in total fines. Appeals to violations would be routed to the Code Enforcement Board.
