Paducah introduces MOU with McCracken County PVA to automate 911 parcel-fee calculations
Summary
The city introduced an ordinance authorizing an MOU with the McCracken County Property Valuation Administrator to provide an annual parcel database and classification for the city's 911 parcel fee at a cost of four cents per parcel (about $520 for ~13,000 parcels).
The Paducah Board of Commissioners on June 9 introduced an ordinance authorizing the mayor to execute a memorandum of understanding with the McCracken County Property Valuation Administrator to assist with assessment, classification and calculation of the city's 911 parcel fee.
Eric explained that the county PVA already maintains tax-roll data and would apply the classification rules the city uses, provide a database of eligible parcels and host parcel-fee information on the PVA website. He said the county proposed a rate of four cents per parcel; with approximately 13,000 city parcels, that cost would be about $520 annually and would replace staff’s manual annual calculations.
The commission moved and seconded the introduction; staff said the arrangement would increase transparency for residents because parcel classifications and fees could be viewed on the PVA's public website. The ordinance was introduced; final adoption will follow the normal ordinance process.
