The Paducah Board of Commissioners are developing a work plan centered around a new list of city priorities for the next two years.
At a retreat this week, city leaders agreed on plans that include developing the riverfront area, launching a neighborhood empowerment model, updating the local Human Rights Commission and establishing an arts commission.
They intend on completing the Comprehensive Storm Water Master Plan, the first phase of City Hall rehabilitation and work at the Noble Park tennis court area.
City leaders also want to develop infrastructure improvement and biking plans.
The city is also looking to craft a shared agenda with McCracken County and a regional 911 collaboration agreement.
The next steps involve further defining the priorities and determining metrics for success. This step would address each item’s staffing needs, necessary resources and timelines.
